Rihanna has canceled her Indonesia concert after fears that if she goes through with it someone may get hurt and she doesn't want fans to have problems because of her.
According to a report on NYTimes.com, the Umbrella singer has pulled out because there is unrest in the area following the execution of three men accused of bombing a nightclub on the nearby island of Bali in 2002.
She had been due to play in front of a sell-out crowd of 6000 in the capital, Jakarta, but while she was in Australia, the government began warning people not to travel to Indonesia because the bombers, who were killed at the weekend, had told their followers to carry out revenge attacks after their deaths.
Smart decision, I'm sure, but fans must be really disappointed. After all, how often does Rihanna make it to Indonesia? However, there might be another chance after all. Organizers are trying to reschedule for this Jan.
