Sum more information

However, sources both in Kuala Lumpur and Singapore told theSun that Beyonce’s manager, her father Matthew Knowles, has imposed additional conditions for her to perform here.

“He wants an assurance for her security,(wTf?) including a personal assurance from the government that there will be no terrorists threats or attacks,(R we??!!stuppid!)” said a source.

A government source confirmed this, saying that the Malaysian Government has been very accommodating, where a letter from the Prime Minster’s Department was issued to Beyonce’s management assuring them of her safety.

It is understood that the US$450,000 (RM1.48 million) artiste fee has already been paid to Beyonce to secure her for the show here.

However, it had been revealed in this paper’s Down2Earth column on Oct 2 that there had been attempts by Singapore organisers to get the artiste to perform on the island republic when she was down there last month for the F1 Rocks show.

“They had used the protests against her by PAS to scare Beyonce’s people.(damn!)

“The Malaysian government has been very helpful in getting the paperwork done to bring her down here. Now we have this,” said a source.

The statement from Marctensia goes on to say that the official postponement statement by Beyonce’s artiste management, Music World will be released this week.

Also..

Beyonce has postponed a planned concert in Malaysia after the nation's opposition Islamist party raised concerns about her performance, citing moral issues, concert organizers said.

Foreign acts often draw protests by the Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS), whose youth wing forced Beyonce to cancel her 2007 concert in the mainly Muslim nation of 27 million people.

Malaysian entertainment company Marctensia said in a statement on its website that the Beyonce "I am ..." concert, planned for October 25 as part of her world tour, would be postponed to a date yet to be announced.

"The postponement is solely (the) decision of the artist and has nothing to do with other external reasons," the concert organizers said in the statement.

No further reason was given. Marctensia said a new date for the concert would be announced "shortly" and a statement from Beyonce's management would be released later this week.
