Lady Gaga too hot for Indonesia

May 15, 2012 18:41

Pop sensation Lady Gaga's upcoming Indonesia concert has been denied permission following protests by Islamic extremists who feel her performance will corrupt the youth of the country.

The 26-year-old singer is due to play in the country's capital Jakarta on June 3 as part of her Born This Way Ball tour, but police have declined to give her a licence to perform.

The "Born This Way" hitmaker will have to cancel the sold out concert after hard-liners and conservative lawmakers raised objection to Gaga's skimpy outfits and dance moves, reported Daily Mail.

The gig was the biggest show on the Asian leg of her world tour with more than 50,000 tickets being sold already.
