Avril Lavigne's concert on August 29th has been officially cancelled, much to the local fans' dismay. For the past week or so, PAS has been trying to get the gig banned, citing reasons that Avril's show is unsuitable for Malaysian culture and such. In yesterday's news, Galaxy, who are organising the event had confirmed that the show would go on as planned but the Unity, Culture, Arts and Heritage Ministry finally stepped in and pulled the plug on the show. And the reason for the cancellation? "Avril's show may taint the Merdeka celebrations - her show is too sexy for us". Err.. Avril sexy??!
But local Avril fans need not fret as she is having a show in Singapore in early September (saw it when I was browsing Sistic the other day)... though probably all the good seats would've been snapped up by now. Bummer.
