Deeyah claims, the video, What will be? deals with Muslim women's rights and female empowerment, as it also features Muslim women who have fought for freedom of expression.
The singer, who was born in Norway but moved to the UK after her act alienated her from the Muslim community, has been forced to cancel performances and hire a team of bodyguards after inciting anger from British Muslims as well.
"I can't walk around without bodyguards. I would be lying if I said abuse from religious fanatics did not upset or scare me," the 28-year-old, dubbed as the 'Muslim Madonna' was quoted by Contactmusic, as saying.
Asian music TV network B4U TV dropped the video after receiving complaints.
"We played the video a couple of times and then did not play it again. We had threats which we were forced to take very seriously. These things are sensitive issues," an employee said.
Watch the video here
Go to her Website
But does she remove her veil?
Sounds like a brave young lady. (diva probably the wrong word in my title).
I wonder how many innocents will be killed in protest?
Looks like they pulled the video. Must show her navel.
Like an Infidel.
Wonder if it will get any airplay here in the states?
islamic strip show, "full facial nudity".
Gosh, that's annoying music. I just saw a roach commit suicide.
Isn't the last person who pulls the tape off that lesbian Muslim author?
It sounds good in theory, but the horrific music and endless clips of the retarded gang-bangers waving their arms around like they're in a fit of Saint Vitus dance makes this video a net loss.

This is not a victory for God and morality, but for Satan and deviancy. Neither should women be treated like cattle, nor should they be acting like whores.
You Got it, Killborn.
I had actually started to watch the video, but when I saw how crass & skin-focused it is, I had to say "Nope, uh-uh."
She sure is pretty.
Gansta crap has got to go.
a. I happen to like the music.
b. The video isn't much different from the 1000 other music videos airing on Arab music TV.
c. Someone is always getting in hot water...First Nancy Ajram was banned in Egypt for her first video....then Haifa Wahby, then Ruby....now this chick.
It really, really, really isn't anything new to their TV....OK, maybe the burka schtick is a bit much ;)
Bump from behind the firewall for home viewing.
She will be dead in a month!
OH yeah, I think she's pretty cool and daring.
