      *Pop star Rihanna says she will abide by the strict dress codes of Malaysia and keep herself covered when she performs in the capital next month, the concert's organizers said Tuesday.

       Under government guidelines in the predominantly-Muslim country, a female performer must be covered from the top of her chest, including her shoulders, to her knees.       

       Recent concerts by Gwen Stefani and Avril Lavigne drew protests by conservative Muslim Malaysians over immodest clothes. Stefani eventually made what she called "a major sacrifice" at her show by donning attire that revealed little skin.      

       The organizers of a Pussycat Dolls concert in 2006 were fined nearly $3,000 after the U.S. girl group was accused of going against decency regulations.      

       The Malaysian organizers of Rihanna's Feb. 13 stop on her "Good Girl Gone Bad" tour voiced hopes that protests would not mar the Grammy-winning singer's show.      

       Rihanna's management is "aware of the country's regulations and the difficulties of doing a show," Razman Razali, managing director of Pineapple Concerts, told The Associated Press.       

       Concert ticket Web site Axcess said sales for Rihanna's show in a 16,000-capacity Kuala Lumpur stadium were selling briskly Tuesday, just hours after newspapers announced the event.
