The hatorade is in full effect for a Beyonce Concert coming up in Egypt on Friday. According to an article on singersroom.com, Sasha fierce is facing backlash from the Muslim Brotherhood organization, who claim Beyonce will disturb social peace and stability in the region if she is permitted to perform.

Ina letter to local authorities, the Brotherhood wrote "Why are youencouraging this insolent sex party? You are accused of disturbing social peace and stability, encouraging vice and debauchery."
Theletter follows several reported complaints to government officialssince the announcement that Beyonce would take the stage in the regionwas made.News of continued backlash follows a similar response from locals in Malaysia who believed Beyonce's concert would lead to "unclean behavior". In the end Beyonce scrapped that show.


Notall Egyptians agree with the Muslim Brotherhood's statement madeearlier this week. Ahmed Beltagi, an event organizer, says people areaccepting and will salute the "Halo" singer. "Weare Muslims too... this will not stop Egypt from hosting anaward-winning, first class artist. We should salute her instead ofcriticising her."
Wait till they get a load of Lady Gaga.
