* None of our business

dear miss nemati, [Iranian diva]

i really appreciate all your efforts in collecting old and long-forgotten songs from the good old days. that's why i wish you had not written those lines about googoosh as a role model.

please close your eyes for one second and try to concentrate. try to respect the wish of a woman who wants to be remembered as a singer not anything else. she wants to be on the stage not a plaything for people in the mass media. she has been trying to shy away from any activity which may cause a fuss around her in the past 4 years after coming out of seclusion. please respect her idea as a human being and as a woman. i know your opinions as woman have always been suppressed in your country, now you are suppressing others by your wrong remarks.

please try to understand for god's sake, we live in the 21st century. a person should have her private life. this is none of my business how she acted with her husband or father. i just love her voice, her choice of lyrics and songs, her unique performance on the stage and the passion in those lovely black eyes which reminds me of the beauty and innocence of country i left behind 24 years ago.

many people like you in the past four years tried and tried to destroy her image in the eyes of her people.. accusing her of being an agent of the islamic republic, sent by khatami, having antisemitic opinions , not attending sousan's funeral ...... but with no success. she is simply the best and she knows it quite well. her private life belongs to herself and this is none of our business to tell her what she should have done with it. i think she reads all your comments and watches all those personality assaniations on tv and she laughs in her heart. she knows quite well that she is in our hearts and even people who attack her and are jealous towards her admire her talent.

i make you an example. mr shahyar ghanbari was the one who started many personal attacks against googoosh since her historic come-back. but when she asked him to work with her he accepted in a jiffy. all those accusations and claims about VATAN and MIHAN were gone. you know better than me shahyar craved for working with her all those years. and it shows many people who attack her , love her in reality and deep in their hearts. some just feel jealous, and some need her support. but amid all these fightings she remains the same. simply GOOGOOSH, the grand diva of all times.

god bless her

Marc Minaee from the UK
