Performances by Latino singer Enrique Iglesias, Thai singer Tata Young and Korean boyband Boyfriend, are canceled, the event promoter said on Wednesday, citing "internal problems" as the main reason.
Jihan Zela, publicist for the event promoter Wayang Sinema Indonesia, said she could not give further details on the problems leading to the cancellation.
"We're still in the middle of meetings to discuss the situation, and I can't really talk about this," she told the Jakarta Globe.
The three international performers were scheduled to kick off beauty pageant road show Miss Teen Indonesia 2011 on July 21 at Sentul Convention Center, located in the outskirts of Jakarta. The July 21st event is the first edition of the Miss Teen Indonesia 2011 beauty pageant which, according to Rudy Sutopo, owner of Wayang Sinema Indonesia, travel across the country in search for a winner to represent Indonesia in the upcoming Miss Global Teen 2011 in Aruba.
The organizer earlier announced that US pop diva Katy Perry was also part of the lineup for the event, but details of her arrival had not yet been disclosed.
Miss Global Teen is an international teen beauty pageant organized by the Donald Trump Organization, Global Promociones LLP and Nuestra Bellessa Latina (Univision).
Wayang Sinema Indonesia is the licensee and executive producer of Miss Teen Indonesia 2011. As of 6:30 pm on Wednesday the promoter could not confirm if the beauty pageant would also be delayed.
"We will announce it tomorrow afternoon at the latest. It involves a lot of parties and we haven't concluded this meeting," Jihan said.
Miss Teen Indonesia is scheduled to tour major cities and the star-studded concert is meant to mark the beginning of the hunt for the teen beauties. Auditions are slated for July 23 in Balikpapan and Makassar, August 6 in Surabaya and Medan, August 13 in Bali and Yogyakarta and August 20 in Bandung and Jakarta.
From each city, the organizing committee will choose six or seven girls aged between 13 to 18 years old to participate in the competition.
