Beyonce Show Canceled Over Dress Code, Radiohead Hoax Revealed, Oasis Squashes Beef With Blur

9/28/07, 2:38 pm EST

  • After Gwen Stefani was forced to tone down her performance in Malaysia because of the country’s strict dress code, Beyoncé’s Kuala Lumpur debut was canceled thanks to protests from Malaysia’s Muslim groups. Beyoncé also reportedly refused to conform to the code, which doesn’t allow female performers to show any skin from the top of the chest down to the knees, and thus impeding on her ability to be “Bootylicious.”
  • A countdown is ticking on a recently unearthed site called RadioheadLP7.com, but according to sources inside Camp Radiohead, the only thing that will be revealed when the clock strikes zeros is that the site is a hoax. We smelled “fake” from the onset, given the revert back to Kid A-era font, but that hasn’t stopped us from tricking our friends with personalized messages on the LP7 page.
  • Before there was Kanye vs. 50, there was Oasis vs. Blur. But now, Liam Gallagher tells Mojo that he has put an end to the decade-old feud, officially white-flagging a war of bad words that began in 1995, when both bands released singles in the same week, and should have ended in 1996 when people stopped caring about the feud.
  • Cat Power will release her second album of covers, curiously titled Covers II, on January 22nd. The full track list hasn’t been announced (click here for a short list, though), and Chan Marshall will once again be backed by her Dirty Delta Blues band.
  • Reports that Michael Jackson married his children’s nanny at a shotgun wedding in Las Vegas are completely “not true,” according to Jacko’s spokesperson.

I’m a Malaysian living in the US married to a White American guy. We, Malaysians, don’t really care about Beyonce’s kind of music. So we miss nothing for something that we don’t pay much attention to.

she’s too elegant and perfect.

you show me something that’s perfect and i’ll show you something that’s not.

something’s not right, i know it.

Jay-Z’s too busy designing women’s perfume and doing interior decorating.

or said much more precisely:

she really needs someone to give HER a jump!

Henry Chinaski | 9/30/2007, 4:03 am EST

i still say someone needs to give her a jump

I think she needs a good lay. Because I’m convinced that Jay-Z can’t lay pipe worth a shit!

maybe they just like paying tribute their favorite artists. it’s much more respectful than sampling and not giving credit to the creator.

I AM GLAD THAT MALAYSIA CANCELLED HER CONCERT BECAUSE SHE SHOULD HAVE MORE CLASS THAN THIS. SHE COULD HAVE FOUND SOMETHING DECENT TO GO OVER THERE AND SHOW RESPECT FOR HER FANS THIS JUST TELLS ME THAT BEYONCE IS ALL ABOUT HERSELF. THEY PROBABLY WAS NOT GONNA SALE MANY TICKETS ANY WAYS, BECAUSE HER US TOUR WAS A BIG FLOP. I GUESS AFTER THEY VIEWED HER WARDROBE MALFUNCTION VIDEO, THIS RAISED SOME EYEBROWS, AND BEYONCE WOULD HAVE BEEN CANNED ALONG WITH HER FATHER!!!

Ugh!! Another artist doing cover songs!! What makes it worse, not only Cat Power produced one album of cover songs, but two?!? C’mon people in the music business, what ever happened to originality!?!

Good for Beyonce for standing up to the Muslim fascist thugs!
