No Muslims allowed at Black Eyed Peas Concert

The Black Eyed Peas are scheduled to hold their first ever non-Muslim only concert in Malaysia. Now hold on, before you all go hatin’ on the Black Eyed let me just say that the discrimination comes from the government of Malaysia.

Black Eyed Peas

Malaysia is predominantly Muslim state but because they are becoming increasingly global they are having to make acceptions to other countries culture habits. They banned Avril Lavigne in the past for being to sexy and now they almost banned the Black Eyed Peas for being sponsored by Guinness a beer company from Ireland. The Muslim country of Malaysia have laws against endorsements by alcohol companies so they were forced to only allow non-Muslims the chance to attend the concert. Naturally Muslims will go and see Fergie and the group but at least the Peas won’t be held responsible if any of them get caned for it.
