Erykah Badu Banned in Malaysia

 
A picture of Erykah Badu with the word Allah written on her bare shoulders has touched off a firestorm in Muslim-majority Malaysia...

Erykah Badu was supposed to perform in Kuala Lumpur today Wednesday Feb 29th but the concert was abruptly canceled on order of the Communications and Culture Minister, who said
"With the graphic exhibition of "Allah" on the body of the singer, it is sufficient to warrant irrefutable religious controversies from among Muslims who disdain such practice. The committee's decision to disallow the entertainer to perform publicly is in our view justified."
Nicki Minaj, Lady Gaga and co know not to mess with Muslims and their religion but not Erykah Badu. She better not go to Malaysia o...

  6. Erykah Badu is a BIG fuckin FRAUD! It's all
    show she ain't that damn spiritual, her ass is
    lost like the most of us. They don't like
    nakedness over there, she should have
    went to Paris doing that shit, they would
    have loved her ass for that. Young ones
    don't follow Erykah Badu because she will
    hand you a one-way of thinking straight to
    HELL! She be smokin that herb from
    overseas and be high and trippin hard....she
    creative though I gotta hand it to her, but
    her ass be gettin off key her lately.

    1. Ok, I know you are trying to sound so cool and American but that is no way of writing. You can speak that way in conversations but when you write, your tenses must be correct. Quit copying "akata" way of talking it doesn't show intelligence...and to think you have a blog.

    2. So wat if she got a tattoo saying Allah, Arabic is a language and she printed God in a different language just like people have Chinese tattoos and Christians have the cross and or even have God/Jesus. I'm a Muslim & I'm so ready to get out of this judgmental circle , ppl just switch the word of God. No wisdom in religious shit this days. Just be spiritual and talk to God 1 on 1.

  11. I dont understand why these people do anything and everything for attention.She knows its offensive to the culture so why do it.

    ReplyDelete
  12. I'm actually really impressed with these people.yes you don't mess with their religio. These artists think because they are "entertainers" they can go around doing whateva they want and when there is a backlash,they blame it on "art".there are a million and one ways to express yourself artistically without blaspheming.Good for her next tym she won't try this nonsense. I just wish we christians could take a stronger stand against the likes of jayz,beyonce,ladygaga and co who openly and happily blasphem against Jesus and christianity because they feel we are the "quiet ones" so they get away with it.lady gaga shld sing abt Allah one day na and see what will happen to her.expression of art my foot maybe by the time we start boycotting them and their shows their eyes will clear! Nonsense

    1. Oh my God!you too make sense,when has God Almighty turn to toy,I wonder why some people will blame muslims for taking their religion serious,God is God any where,and HE should be taken serious.

  13. Haba!! Why crucify her when u don't even know d true story behind d picture? She was asked by her producer 2 pose as 'THE PAINTED LADY', a character in d 70s film, 'THE HOLY MOUNTAIN', in which d character had diff names of God painted on her body during a photo shoot in Malaysia. A malaysian magazine had published d photo as one of the means of creating publicity 4 d show, but the minister felt dat particular photo, out of several others, could cause confusion as d country is going 2ru election period! Meanwhile, 'she' was not banned, but the concert in Malaysia. Thank you!

  14. Linda are you tempted yourself to mess with

    Muslims and their religion

    Tatooing Allah on your body is disrespectful to the

    religion and to Muslims Period

    Non Muslims need to learn about Islam and Muslims

    and what is offensive to them before they travel to

    Dubai Jakarta Jeddah or Kuala lampur

    As long as you stay away from Talking About Allah

    Prophet Mohamed and Quran you will be fine

    Even non practicing Muslims will be offended the

    same way about these subjects

  18. I just nsincerely hope that thingy is not real tattoo ooo.(Awon oniwa pala-pala)

  19. Simple respect for other peoples religion will solve most of the religious crises across the world today. You cant write the name of God on a bare skin and expect to be welcome in a Muslim country. I am a muslim but i still have no respect for people who write the name of Jesus on their bodies as tatoos.

  24. I find it hard to believe she didn't know Islam prohibits such behaviour
    I hope it's not just for publicity

    ReplyDelete
  25. She shld have known beta. She wanted publicity bt went abt it d rong way,even as muslims we nt allowd 2 do such tins(its prohibited). By d way i lent d tatoos r temporary.

  26. Shen may have a 'fatwah' on her head even as we speak.... Hmmm!

    ReplyDelete
  27. Decorating her body like this? I don't like it, but it's the show biz world where you've got to be different and identified.

    ReplyDelete
  28. The reason for the tatoo is deeper than we all think...she is passing a secret message and its got nothing to do with just islam...she is implying, from the different expressions of the names tattooed on her body that she is "GOD"...she is demystifying the supreme being!they are implying that you don't need "allah", or Jehovah" or "budah" or whatever it is you call God..."You can be God". The same thing JayZ meant with the song "HOVA"...see, this whole thingy is deeper and bigger than you all think and that's why I'm suprised some are busy attacking one another here...

  33. And she is into santeria, she once said on the Monique show that she goes to Cuba to meet her voodoo dr. why is she messing with Allah now? She must be really desperate for attention. The naked stunt she pulled for her video is not her enough. She should fire her voodoo dr. lol. for such a talented lady she is really very ignorant, sorry to say.
