Bin Ladin the next pop explosion?
http://www.suntimes.com/output/enter...-osama16.html?

LONDON--A niece of Osama bin Laden is launching a career as a pop singer after rejecting her Muslim background and throwing herself into the London party scene.

Waffa bin Laden, whose father Yeslam is a brother of the world's most wanted man, hopes to release a single by the end of the year after being told that she has the looks and voice to become a star.

She has been working on a demo tape and reportedly has been advised on her musical ambitions by acclaimed rap artist Wyclef Jean.

Bin Laden, 26, has become a fixture on the London club scene since moving here six months ago.

Bin Laden, who trained as a lawyer in America, dissociated herself from her notorious uncle long before the Sept. 11 attacks. At the time, she was living less than a mile from the World Trade Center.


I guess name recognition is still worth something...

Shes evil and must be sentenced to 100 years in a military hard-labour prison camp in French Guyana.

Could be nice for psychological warfare. Have her do one of the Christina Aguilera type slutty videos and get it over to Al Queda for Bin Laden to watch.

Good ol' conservative American morals. Always looking for an angle to exploit someone for political gain.

I thought this thread would be about population explosion, not pop music. Disappointed. I was hoping to be regaled with tales of Bin Ladian promiscuity and the vast spreading of his seed. After all his family has a billion members as it is.

There are no pics of her. Check out the pics of Natalie Imbruglia instead.

She's a huge fixture on the London club scene, but there aren't any pictures of her whatsoever? No paparazzi, no nothing? The niece of Osama Bin Laden?

Something doesn't sound right about this...
