Jakarta – President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono said a singer invited to the State Palace failed to perform because she was dismissed for showing her belly button. "I was disturbed. I told the singer to home," he said, describing himself as "conservative".

He revealed the incident when touching on the current controversy of the pornography bill at the opening of a conference of a students organization, GMNI, on Friday. He urged for calm deliberation of the bill. "We know what's porn and what's not," he said as quoted by Antara news service.
