Lady Gaga was scheduled to perform in Jakarta, Indonesia, on June 3, but police recommended she be denied a performance permit. Officials were pressured by conservative campaigners, who are opposed to her controversial onstage antics.

To avoid causing offense, Gaga offered to tone down her act and even perform solo. But on Sunday she was forced to cancel the show after protesters threatened to intercept her upon arrival in Indonesia.

After axing the show, the singer reached out to fans, insisting she is "devastated" and will "try to put together something special" for her followers.
 
In a post on Facebook she wrote, "We had to cancel the concert in Indonesia. I'm so very sorry to the fans & just as devastated as you if not more. You are everything to me. I will try to put together something special for you. My love for Indonesia has only grown. Gaga sends love to Jakarta and all its people."
