The issue's apparently been resolved and Gaga is now permitted to go ahead with the concert on June 3.

A press conference with the tour promoters, the police and FPI took place earlier today by which they revealed it was not just a religious dispute, is was also about money / taxes. The concert in Jakarta alone is expected to gross over $4M but the officials wanted more money for the event as it is to be the biggest concert in Asia / the biggest ever in Indonesia.

The press conference will air later this afternoon in Indonesia.

I don't not believe you, but do you have a source? I've seen just as many people reporting that it's officially canceled.

the music critic in Indonesia, Bens Leo says it's impossible that the permit has yet released while the 52.000 tix have sold out and they (the promoter) already booked the stadium 3 months ago

he also has said Gaga is a great inspiration and stans hard for teh Queen

I could see them adding at least 5.000 more tickets after that media frenzy and all the promo . They already added 2.000 more , lol .

Get that promo and WERK .

The question still stands .. is it safe for Gaga ? I mean , I can see some dissapointed Muslim in the corner making creepy bombing thoughts.

Well, no official announcement has been made nor has any report been issued to suggest anything of the sort.

As of right now: Me > E! News, MTV and Billboard.

@ their false headlines.

Lady Gaga's concert in Indonesia may be cancelled as she was denied a permit

It's not hard to speak to people in Indonesia and not re-word a report from the AP and make it seem worse than it is

He's been tweeting much like the link below - he's still struggling to resolve it, but it's more positive than yesterday.

What a strong nation it is to be so frightened of a little sexy show. If their morals are so well taught to the children, how could the children corrupt them? Are they teaching them right? Of course not, they are teaching children not to do certain things but not for the right reasons. Children have to really understand why. The problem is in keeping away what is dangerous instead of truly knowing what is right. They will only be protected from lady gaga (assuming she is a threat to them), when they have conscious and powerful morals to not get carried away to corruption.

Yep, the promoters are still pushing for the concert to go. New article:
