Dua Lipa Cancels Concert: 5 Other Artists Who Also Failed to Perform in Indonesia

The excitement surrounding Dua Lipa's postponed concert in Jakarta has left many fans disappointed. This isn't the first time an international artist has canceled their Indonesian show, however. Over the years, numerous stars have had to call off their performances for various reasons. Here are five other artists who, like Dua Lipa, failed to grace the Indonesian stage:

1. Justin Bieber (2011)

The "Baby" singer was scheduled to perform in Jakarta in 2011 as part of his "My World Tour". However, due to security concerns and a lack of proper infrastructure at the concert venue, the show was canceled. This sparked outrage among fans and raised questions about Indonesia's readiness to host large-scale international events.

2. Lady Gaga (2012)

In 2012, Lady Gaga was set to perform in Jakarta as part of her "Born This Way Ball Tour." However, the concert was canceled due to threats from religious groups who deemed her performances "too provocative." This incident highlighted the influence of religious groups on public events in Indonesia and raised concerns about artistic freedom.

3. Maroon 5 (2012)

The popular American pop band Maroon 5 was scheduled to perform in Jakarta in 2012 as part of their "Overexposed Tour". However, due to logistical and financial issues, the concert was postponed and ultimately canceled. This left fans disappointed and raised questions about the organization and professionalism of Indonesian event promoters.

4. The 1975 (2019)

The British rock band The 1975 faced controversy during their 2019 Indonesian concert. While the band initially planned to perform, they were forced to cut their set short after lead singer Matty Healy criticized Indonesian laws against homosexuality. This incident sparked debate about artistic expression and freedom of speech in Indonesia.

5. Chris Brown (2017)

American singer Chris Brown was scheduled to perform in Jakarta in 2017. However, the concert was canceled due to protests from the Indonesian public. This stemmed from Brown's past history of domestic violence and assault, which sparked widespread outrage and calls for his cancellation.

These are just a few examples of international artists who failed to perform in Indonesia. While the reasons for cancellation vary, they often reflect issues surrounding security, religious sensitivities, organizational challenges, and public pressure. These incidents highlight the complexities of bringing international performers to Indonesia and the need for better infrastructure, communication, and respect for artistic freedom.
