R&B star Beyonce has announced plans to perform in Malaysia, two years after scrapping a concert over the country's strict dress code. The singer is due to stage a leg of her world tour in the capital Kuala Lumpur next month, according to her website.
In 2007, her planned appearance drew opposition from the Islamic Party and organisers said the concert was called off due to "scheduling conflicts". Female performers are expected to dress and behave conservatively in Malaysia.
