We\u2019ve written a lot in the past about people who would do anything to achieve their dream look.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Suffice it to say that Sahar Tabar from Teheran has taken things one step further.<\/p>\n

The Iranian Instagrammer, who calls herself Sahar Tabar, gained massive online fame and caused quite the stir after sharing some pictures of herself back in 2017. The photos Shahar shared were drastically different from anything you normally see online \u2013 and shocked a lot of people.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

According to Turkish media, she\u2019s had more than 50 plastic surgeries, as well as lost 90 pounds in order to obtain the look she wants.<\/p>\n

More than 400,000 people soon started following Sahar\u2019s transformation on Instagram \u2013 and she made sure to keep everyone updated on her progress.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

As she became world-famous, a local newspaper wrote that Sahar Tabar had only one dream with her transformation: To look like the actress\u00a0Angelina Jolie<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But according to Sahar, whose real name is Fatemah Khishvand, that was never her goal. The Angelina rumor was not true; it wasn\u2019t her intention to look like the Hollywood megastar. Others thought Sahar looked like Emily the Corpse Bride, a character in Tim Burton\u2019s stop-motion movie\u00a0Corpse Bride<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had no interest at\u00a0all to\u00a0be like\u00a0Angelina Jolie, and I did not want to\u00a0look like\u00a0the character from \u201cCorpse Bride\u201d. I understand that I do have some similarities with\u00a0them, but\u00a0I am my own muse and I did not want to\u00a0look like\u00a0anyone. That was not my aim,\u201d Sahar told\u00a0Sputnik News<\/a>\u00a0in 2017.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Sahar also said that her photos were a form of art and that she loved playing with makeup and photo editing. Over the years, she has done Rhinoplasty, Botox for\u00a0lips, and liposuction operations.<\/p>\n

Iran has a thriving plastic surgery industry \u2013 the country has the highest rate of nose surgery in the world. It\u2019s been very popular with young Iranians for decades, and for Sahar, who dreamed of becoming famous, it was easy to turn to cosmetic surgery for attention. Even though her mom hated it, Sahar persisted in building her Instagram fame.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t see anything bad in this. It\u2019s simple and many people around the world do it. Here in Tehran the cost of one operation is 10 million Iranian rials ($283),\u201d Sahar said.<\/p>\n

She posted one extreme picture after another, and her following only grew. Finally, some of the most prominent newspapers in the world picked up her story, and Sahar became a massive name in her home country.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

\u201cPeople react normally when I appear in\u00a0the city. They recognize me, call out\u00a0my name, talk to\u00a0me and hug me. They support me and I don\u2019t feel any negativity from\u00a0them,\u201d she said in 2017.<\/p>\n

Of course, some were of the opinion that Sahar had gone too far with changing her appearance. Many thought she looked much better before all the surgeries.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor me the most important thing is to\u00a0have the acceptance of\u00a0my family and God. I have those and that is enough for\u00a0me. Opinions from\u00a0the rest of\u00a0the world are not important, I ignore their negativity,\u201d Sahar explained.<\/p>\n

But it seems the Iranian regime and lawmakers were less pleased with Sahar and her newfound celebrity status.<\/p>\n

In October 2019, she was arrested and put on trial. Her Instagram account was deleted and she was accused of \u201ccorruption\u201d and \u201cblasphemy\u201d. In December 2020, she was sentenced to 10 years in prison.<\/p>\n

An Iranian human rights activist, Masih Alinejad, then called out for help.<\/p>\n

\u201cSahar Tabar is only 19. Her joke landed her in jail.<\/p>\n

\u201cHer mother cries every day to get her innocent daughter freed. Dear Angelina Jolie, we need your voice here. Help us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Then something unexpected happened. After just 14 months, Sahar was released from prison. Right now is a turbulent time in Iran, with widespread protests triggered by the death of Mahsa Amini. That may have prompted the regime to release Sahar earlier. According to Sahar, the judge had agreed to convert the arrest order into a bail order.<\/p>\n

Sahar\u2019s official Instagram account,\u00a0@sahartabar_official<\/a>, is still deactivated but there are several other social media accounts that still post old and new pictures of her.<\/p>\n

After being released from jail, Sahar made a\u00a0TV appearance<\/a>\u00a0and showed her natural face. She revealed that she had undergone several cosmetic procedures \u2013 but confessed and said that many of the infamous images that made her famous resulted from make-up and editing in Photoshop.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not one to judge others. People are free to be who they want to be and look however they want to be.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In Sahar\u2019s case, it seems there\u2019s a lot more to the story than just some eyebrow-raising pictures, and I really hope she is out of trouble for them now!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
