Reading The Star the other day, I belatedly found out on and the eve of her concert that Erykah Badu was a grammy award winner and was due to perform in a concert Today. Hmmm, i guess the other day was yesterday?
Anyway, the hum-drum is that her concert was banned and even though she's already in KL, all she can do is oogle at our twin-towers(non-local built btw). She had tattoo's sporting arabic and hebrew words which means "Allah".
Yes, very sensitive it is........... here(only?).
The culture and Home supported their decision to ban the concert due to concern for national security. Wait...what? Concert = national security threat? I guess Al-Qaeda really got to all of us.
The said anger towards her direct insult and insensitivity to the local culture was soooo widespread that in the village next to my campus next to my state next to my country is currently burning effigies of her staking that she's the mother of satan and a prada wearing devil.
Okay wait... that would be either indonesia or thailand and they didn't really do that.
Also penalised was The Star for posting the picture of her with those exposed tattoo's. SO, my question is:
a) If The Star didnt publish the picture, the concert would still go on?
b) If she flew in to KL, she probably had prior approval and consent from the government to hold the concert rite?
c) SO WHAT WERE OUR CULTURE AND HOME DOING before THEY GAVE HER APPROVAL????????????????
Funny isnt it?
TO continue, I would've expected more threats to national security with flags burning of the USA and maybe Obama due to the Quran burning incident in Afghanistan a couple of weeks back.
But there was none was it?
So why all this hubris over a singer with her own body art which she is subjected to according to her rights of being an American Citizen?
Suka sangat main kepoh, buat kerja baik-baik sebelum sampuk hal orang lain.
