Spies have reportedly uncovered a terror plot involving Kylie Minogue's forthcoming gig in the United Arab Emirates.
According to the Daily Star, British spies are investigating a threat to the concert, which is scheduled to take place at the opening of the Atlantis Hotel in Dubai on November 20.
"We believe terrorists may be planning to carry out attacks in the United Arab Emirates," a British Embassy spokesperson is quoted as saying.
"Attacks could be indiscriminate and could happen at any time, including in places frequented by expatriates and foreign travellers."
Minogue will pick up £2 million for the performance, while fans looking to stay at the hotel can expect to pay £14,000 per night.
She must be bloody terrified! I wonder if she'll go ahead with it?

I do no believe it is true for one moment. Last week it was Paul McCartney and zero happened ,despite him turning the place upside down with 5000 security guards. There is just one long list of bogus threats.
Like shouting wolf...
Rich Arabs paying £2M to witness a talentless individual who can't sing.
Tacky in the extreme.
This is the Daily Star though. I give that rag as wide a birth as I give the Scum.
She was not even their 1stchoice but was the only one who offered to do it.Others are on tour or have other engagements.
Dubai is FULL of thousands of western people all the time.. they go to work ( for 5 times their normal salary) or they are the billionaire club who have done everything else. So " terror threats" surrounding Ms Minogue seem absurd .
Elton and Aguilera and other have played there recently without all this fuss.
And Star the source..a rag full of semi naked ex BB babes..really credible-NOT
This BS story does really not warrant this thread tbh.
She can sing; you've obviously never heard her live.
When its pulled through a voice synthesizer, yes she can
Yes, i noticed that after i posted it :rolleyes: I guess we can all say it's one big pile of shite like every other story in that rag!
She actually has quite a good range as a singer.
Absolutely and Kyles will be safe
Here's the FCO page and the advice:
http://www.fco.gov.uk/en/travelling-and-living-overseas/travel-advice-by-country/middle-east-north-africa/united-arab-emirates
and the page was last updated 26 days ago (even that might not have changed the terror advice) so this isn't news, it isn't scary, and it almost certainly isn't true!
Next thing you know she'll have signed for Manchester City.
There are almost no Arabians living there to start with (not that that's anything wrong with Arabians), infact there are more British people living there!
They focus a lot on peoples safety and it's one of the best places to consider to live in.
So I don't think there's anything to worry about.
When I lived in Dubai back in the 80's, massive, talented, wonderful stars like Samantha Fox and Amazulu flew out to sing.
The sad fact was that people in Dubai were so used to not having any western stars performing live that any old one hit wonder would do.
