Comment: McNasty: Ouch! LOL! <> Mothership: That's what I was thinkin'. The only performer allowed to put on a show there must be some Yanni or John Tesh... <> This reminds me of Madonna in "Truth or Dare" when she was told that she'd be arrested if she didn't cut some stuff outta her show. "I'm an artist. I ain't changin' my show," she vehemently insisted. She left her show the was it was and not a darn thing happened. Then again, the Malasians were prolly afraid of a repeat of Bey's peek-a-boo boobs incident not too long ago.

Comment: DETROIT***I'm with ya. I wonder when they decided to book Bey, did they not know her style. On the other hand, Bey must have missed the memo stating "you do not have to be half dress" in order to perform. I guess "practically wearing no clothes" is Bey's signature mark.

Comment: Frankly, I wish there were laws in the United States that required women to cover their bodies more. Our society has grown so driven by lust and sex BECAUSE of the way women dress. I just went to the local mall and was utterly disgusted by seeing young girls showing their tits like little hoes waiting to turn a trick. It hasn't gotten better over the years either...tt's getting worse. What's next? Women walking around in jeans with their naked azzez exposed? God didn't give it to flaunt it to the world. Beyonce dresses like a high class hoe most of the time.

Comment: It also says she can't jump. I mean, come on...her shows are very high energy. There are jumps I'm sure. There are just so many things she would have to abide by other than the way she is required to dress that it wouldn't be worth it and she wouldn't enjoy herself performing; and likely neither would her audience, who, if they really know Beyonce's style of performance, would be expecting a certain kind of show they wouldn't get. It ain't worth it.

Comment: I can understand both sides of the agrument. On one hand you should respect another culture's rules, but on the on hand, if you disagree with that certain aspects of that culture., i.e. the oppression of women, then you should stay away.
Also, in terms of the US, while it can be argued that we should have higher standards, I would not be comfortable with the government setting those stardands. Who afterall gets to define the stardands? There are plenty of so called religious people in this country who would have all women back in hoop skirts and blouses up to the neck

Comment: Why should Bey respect their culture? She's not a damn Muslim. Muslims are always trying to dictate what they think people should do. They obviously know Beyonce the same way we do from performing on TV, video's etc.. So it's not like they don't know how she role why invite her knowing how she performs. There is nothing wrong with a woman's body why should she cover up because it makes others uncomfortable? To each it's own. My suggestion is if you like women covered up become a damn Muslim. Here in the US women have the right to dress the way they want to. Bey has every right to say NO to their request. She don't need that paper nor someone telling her the way she should and should not dress and that goes for all the old tired biddies on this site too. Mind your damn business and do you, wear the clothes that make you feel comfortable and stop judging others for THEIR choices. Muslims have zero respect for their damn women so who gives a fucc what they think

Comment: @McNasty and ALL WOMEN > I'm sorry, but I'm feeling angry toward hoes these days. In my mind, women are the root of all evil. After all, it was a bytch that got SIN started in the first place. It was a bytch that bit the apple when she was told not to bite the apple. You would be surprised how AMERICA would positively change if WOMEN showed respect for themselves by dressing unprovocatively and keep their legs closed until they had a husband to crawl in between them. If women would do those two simple things, they would control a peaceful world. WOMEN ARE DEFINITELY THE DRIVING FORCE OF THE CONDITION OF OUR SOCIETY TODAY. LAST I HEARD, THERE ARE MORE HOES IN THE WORLD THAN TRICKS.

Comment: Anytime Beyonce fell down, bust her head on the ground and jumped right up to perform I assume she's a professional at her craft and as a professional she has to meet the needs of her market (Marketing 101-Supply and Demand). I'm sure they (Muslims) know of her performances that's why they sent her a list of demands. It was up to her to develop a show around their requests. A little wardrobe change wouldn't cost that much and to save on expenses she could have easily used that same show in all of her Muslim dominated markets. It's all about respect. American's are a trip we want to go into other countries and do our thing but when that guy from Iran (the President I forget his name) came to our country no one wanted to hear what he had to say (geesh).

Comment: WordUp> you give the impression that women have all the power and men are just weaklings prone to follow women no matter what the cost, no ability to think for themselves. Last I checked men were perfectly capable of thinking and have reasoning ability so that anything they do is because they want to, not because some 'Jezebel' woman did some siren song and made them involve themselves in things they would not ordinarily do. I've heard that argument before if women wanted respectable men, there would be less hustlers and drugs dealers and more men going to college to get legit jobs. If women didn't allow men t cheat with them they would stay home AND if the woman at home didn't allow them to cheat, they would not. If women didn't like fancy cars, men would drive whatever and blah,blah, blah. It's all about free-will, and it is difficult to discern who started what trend, where women half naked because men wanted to be because they were having difficulty attacting men if they were not wearing revealing clothes---that would depend on the man and what he is wanted for. Some men equal sex with the best part of a woman and vice versa, simply means they were not taught well or if they were taught different, they chose to go a different way. Even the story of Adam and Eve was still a story of freewill and Adam freely ate the apple as well, they were BOTH told what to do by God. Anyway, for your comments last week it was black men that were horrible, this week it is women that caused the ruin of modern civilization. I get the impression you don't like much of anyone, but probably it's simply as you said last week, it is only what you read and see around you---your world must be pretty dismal. For the story at hand, Beyonce decided it wasn't worth it, so for her it was a good choice, I'm sure it won't effect her pocket book and I'm sure Malaysian can just listen to her records, although with all the strict rules I can't even imagine them being allowed to listen to her music considering some of the content.

I just saw a preview of a reality show in which a young lady is deciding between 16 men and/or 16 women as to who will be her mate. This is so disguisting and wrong. We just don't care anymore and then we wonder why there are so many sex crimes/problems that exist.
