Apparently not in Indonesia.
And that is my point. It wasn't even so much the government, but the government's fear of fundie nuts. It would have been the same if a city banned Elvis because of his hip gyrations.
It isn't like she was touring a sex show where it was a bunch of naked people having an orgy in public.
It just pisses me off the prudishness of humans. If someone doesn't like a performer, or for that matter, doesn't want to go to a strip joint, then don't go, but don't threaten the people that do and are doing it through consent where no one is getting hurt.
I am pissed off first, at the people in Indonesia who made the threats. And I am pissed at the government for bowing to the threats. But Ga Ga, like here music or not, like her costumes or not, did nothing wrong.
