The album was almost banned as the cover featured Francissca Peter wearing a crucifix, which stirred controversy among certain groups in Malaysia. This backlash was instigated by a small group of individuals who objected to a non-Malay artist gaining significant popularity among Malay-Muslim fans. They argued that the imagery was inappropriate and tried to get the album banned.
In response, Warner Music acted swiftly, digitally altering the album cover to remove the crucifix while preserving the integrity of the album's design. The revised album cover was re-released, and instead of diminishing its appeal, the controversy generated significant publicity.
The heightened attention contributed to the album's widespread success, and Kau Bintangku went on to achieve Platinum status, cementing Francissca Peter's position as one of Malaysia's leading pop artists. The album’s resilience in overcoming these challenges remains a testament to her enduring popularity and the public’s appreciation of her music.
