Kuala Lumpur: Muslims in Malaysia are calling for Mariah Carey to be banned from performing in the country because shes vulgar.
Leader of the Pan Malaysian Islamic Partys youth wing Ahmid Sabki said: Everyone knows Mariah Carey presents herself in a sexy, unacceptable and almost vulgar manner. Shes not an appropriate role model for young Malaysians.
Carey is due to perform in Kuala Lumpur on February 22 after receiving official permission.
But Sabki criticised the decision. He said: Allowing such concerts promotes and condones values that are totally contrary to our way of life and our culture.
Western entertainment is popular in Malaysia but has come up against much opposition. Many Hollywood films featuring sex, violence and swearing, such as Austin Powers have been banned because of fears of the influence over Malaysian youth.
