The Pussycat Dolls have angered Malaysian officials with their raunchy show.
The saucy US girl band performed in the Far East last month and locals were outraged by their revealing outfits and suggestive lyrics.
A local council spokesman told Malay Mail newspaper: "I believe the way the Pussycat Dolls behaved on stage amounted to gross indecency.
"They reportedly put on a show which not only featured scantily-dressed performers but also included sensuous elements."
Now the US band have reportedly been handed a fine - and if they refuse to pay up the local council has threatened to take the group to court, reports MTV.
This is not the first time Western acts have angered the predominantly Muslim country. In 2003 rock group Linkin Park were ordered to swap their shorts for trousers before they took to the stage.
