‘SAHAR TABAR IS ONLY 21 ’  

You Magazine reports that the Iranian woman Sahar Tabar became an Instagram sensation when she started posting images of herself looking like an Angelina Jolie/zombie bride until she got arrested in 2019 and got sentenced to 10 years in an Iranian prison.  

Tabar, whose real name is Fatemeh Khishvand, revealed she had undergone about 50 surgeries by the time she was 17 years to get the ‘Angelina Jolie/zombie look.   

The look consisted of big pouty lips, a sharp crooked nose, and exaggerated cheekbones but in the end, it simply resembled a badly botched job.  

The publication adds that the teenager gained more than four million followers on social media but eventually got arrested on charges of blasphemy, inciting violence, gaining an income through inappropriate methods, and encouraging the youth to engage in corruption.   

Her 10-year sentence was regarded as one of the worst jails for women in Iran – Qarchak Prison, which is situated in a desert.   

‘FREED FROM IRANIAN PRISON’  

DailyMail reports that activist Masih Alinejad started social media campaigns for her release.   

But the media star was recently released after serving only 14 months, as reported by the activist Masih Alinejad.  

“Sahar Tabar is only 19. Her joke landed her in jail. Her mother cries every day to get her innocent daughter freed. Dear Angelina Jolie, we need your voice here. Help us,” the activist tweeted.   

After 14 months in prison, she was recently granted bail due to pressure from the media after citizens in Iran took to the streets in protest following the killing of Mahsa Amini (22), allegedly by law enforcement.  

Mahsa was arrested for defying the Islamic republic’s strict dress code for women and then died in a hospital under suspicious circumstances.  

Following her release, Sahar appeared on Iranian TV and confessed that many of her pictures were a result of makeup and heavy editing.   

Tabar also claimed that she lost between 30 to 40 kilos, when in fact she only shed about 7kg.  

The Instagrammer has since removed her Instagram page since her sentencing.   

DailyMail adds that cosmetic surgery is hugely popular in the Islamic republic, with tens of thousands of operations taking place each year.
