'Obscene' Gwen angers Muslims 01/08/2007 13:21 - (SA)
Los Angeles - Gwen Stefani could be forced to cancel her Malaysian show after a Muslim group branded her "indecent" and "obscene".
The singer, who is currently on the road with her Sweet Escape tour, is due to perform in Kuala Lumpur next month but the National Union of Malaysian Muslim Students want the concert scrapped because Gwen's image offends Islamic beliefs.
Mohamad Hilmi Ramli said: "Her video clips promoting the event are too obscene. We want the organisers to cancel the concert, failing which we will ask the authorities to intervene."
Ramli also slammed Malaysian cellphone company Maxis Communications for promoting Gwen's concert and exposing young Malaysians to "moral decay".
He fumed: "Maxis has been staging a series of foreign acts to make a profit and to expose our young generation to things such as moral decay."
Gwen's Kuala Lumpur show is due to take place at the Stadium Putra on August 21.
The singer will also perform in Australia, Japan, Singapore, Thailand, China and Hawaii before taking her tour to Europe. - Bang Showbiz.com

No suprise. The big question is how she's doing in India.
Hate to think all those years wearing the bindi or dot didn't win her any good will.

Seriously, just wall off the Islamic world so they can’t hurt the rest of us, and let them rot.

Last time I saw GWAR they decapitated Mohammad in effigy.
Of course they pretty much decapitated everybody in effigy. Except for the ones the disemboweled.
Great show BTW. Thought I was gonna die in that crush.
