22:03Now PlayingParastoo Ahmadi, a 27-year-old Iranian singer, made history and sparked global attention by live-streaming a virtual concert on YouTube without wearing a hijab, directly defying Iran’s strict laws. Performing in a sleeveless dress with her hair uncovered, Ahmadi described the concert, filmed in a Silk Road caravanserai, as an "imaginary concert" and declared, "This is a right I could not ignore: singing for the land I love passionately." Her bold act, uploaded on December 11th, went viral, garnering over 1.5 million views despite YouTube restrictions in Iran. Authorities swiftly arrested Ahmadi and two band members, accusing her of actions “contrary to cultural norms,” although she was later released following questioning. Ahmadi, who had faced previous harassment for her activism during the 2022 anti-government protests, continues to challenge Iran’s repression of women, inspiring millions while risking severe punishment.
