Internet star SPY was expected to sing at the ceremony of awarding of Kazakhstan’s music stars KZ MUSIC AWARDS 2013, but the ceremony was postponed, Tengrinews.kz reports, referring to the organizers of the show. According to the organizers, the singer of the famous Gangnam Style was unable to come to Astana because the time of the show didn't fit into his world tour schedule. Representatives of a music award said that the concert might take place in April 2013, but gave no exact date of the show. Южнокорейский исполнитель PSY прославился после того, как в июле 2012 года выложил в Интернет клип Gangnam Style. В декабре 2012 года количество просмотров видеоклипа перевалило за миллиард. В сентябре Gangnam Style попал в Книгу рекордов Гиннесса как клип, набравший самое большое количество "лайков" в истории YouTube. Earlier it was reported that the concert will be held on March 8 at Astana Arena Stadium. It was expected that famous Kazakhstan singer Roza Rymbayeva would host the ceremony. South Korean PSY became famous thanks to his Gangnam Style music video on the Internet in July 2012. Psy's Gangnam Style video was galloping towards the one-billion-view mark on YouTube in December 2012. The Gangnam Style video got into the Guinness Book of World Records as the music video that got the biggest number of “likes” in YouTube history in September 2012. By Aizhan Tugelbayeva
