MONSTROUS

Indonesian Gaga Show Canceled

After protests by Islamic extremists.

Do they know she’s not an actual monster? Lady Gaga’s management decided to pull the plug on a show in Jakarta after hardline Muslim religious groups said they’d prevent her from even getting off her plane in Indonesia. The show had sold more than 50,000 tickets in the country, which has the largest number of Muslims in the world. The Islamic Defenders Front, which called Gaga the “devil’s messenger” in its protests of her planned show, said it is “grateful that she has decided not to come. Indonesians will be protected from sin brought by this Mother Monster, the destroyer of morals.” A spokesman for the group encouraged Gaga’s fans to “repent and stop worshiping the devil.”
