Inul Daratista (born Ainur Rokhimah on 21 January 1979) is a dangdut singer and performance artist from Pasuruan, East Java, Indonesia.
As she began her musical career singing in a rock band, she adopted the stage name Daratista.
Inul Daratista rose to national prominence after a televised January 2003 concert in Jakarta.
[1] She was cited as a reason to pass a national anti-pornography bill that was drafted during the height of the controversy in mid-2003 and became a law in October 2008.
[2] Inul's dance style was also criticised by other dangdut singers, most vocally Rhoma Irama, for "corrupting" the genre, though these criticisms did little to dent her popularity.
