Fashion fatwa? Malaysia tells Beyonce to cover up in concert

From the Times of India:

R&B singer Beyonce Knowles has been asked to cover herself when she performs in Malaysia this year in November.

Organizers have taken the decision keeping in mind the furious students of the Muslim country who threatened to boycott a concert performed by artist Gwen Stefani because of her indecent reputation.

"We've informed Beyonce's management about this issue of clothes, but it takes some of the fun out of it," Contactmusic quoted, Razlan Ahmad Razali, the chairman of Pineapple Concerts, as saying.

. . .

"She's a fashion icon, and we know that she often wears miniskirts and clothes that expose her navel during her performances. It's a pity to restrict her, because her costumes are all tasteful and glamorous," Razali said.
