Rihanna was asked to leave the Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi after posing for photos at the site.
The holy place’s overseers say they kicked the singer from the premises after she took fashion-shoot style pictures in an area typically off limits to tourists.
In a statement released on Monday, officials explain that Rihanna’s behavior violated the “status and sanctity of the mosque.”
“The Centre strives to ensure that visitors enter the mosque in a decent fashion, and refrain from behaving in any way that is inconsistent with the sanctity of this religious place,” reads the statement.
It continues, “Here, the Centre refers to a recent incident, involving a singer who came for a private visit to the mosque, at a gate that is not reserved for visitors, without prior coordination with the Centre’s management and without identifying herself.”
Rihanna has not yet commented on the matter.
