Sevdaliza. In recent weeks, her name has started to permeate the media space, and for good reason, the singer of Iranian origin puts her voice on one of the biggest hits of the year: “Alibi”. A title that she shares with the French artist Yseult and the Brazilian drag queen Pabllo Vittar. Bewitching as can be, mixing French, English and Portuguese, on a beat fusing baile funk and reggaeton, the song now has more than 355 million streams on Spotify, after storming the charts around the world, from Brazil to France via Germany, Greece, Portugal or Romania. “Alibi” was also certified platinum in France, earning two nominations in the process. NRJ Music Awards : International collab’/duo of the year and Social Hit. Unfortunately, the trio left empty-handed!

“Your heart is rotten”
Despite everything, Yseult like Sevdaliza put on a live show last Friday evening on the stage of the Palais des Festivals in Cannes by performing “Alibi” in a stripped-down setting, giving way to the Iranian singer, dressed in a corset and a thong, for a very wild dance. On social networks, her performance was widely applauded but also criticized, in particular because of her outfit considered too provocative for some. On X, an Internet user republished a video of Sevdaliza on the red carpet of the NRJ Music Awards commenting: “ NO BUT WHAT EVEN IS THIS? Jeanne help! “. A phrase often used in the rhetoric of the National Rally. Seen by nearly 600,000 people on the social network, his publication reached Sevdaliza who rushed to respond forcefully.
« Pascal, women are getting killed by men in my country for wearing makeup and you really think your ugly little crescent shaped dick was going to impress the internet or have a say in what I should wear? I am a free woman »wrote the artist born in Tehran, echoing the oppression of women in Iran under the influence of an authoritarian and patriarchal regime. A criticism which comes all the more since an Iranian student was arrested after showing herself in her underwear in the street to protest against the harassment of militiamen of the Revolutionary Guards. Upset and determined to fight for women’s rights, Sevdaliza continued her diatribe against the Internet user: “ I can see that men like you are the cause of 99% of the hatred and despair in this world and you still have the audacity to comment on a woman’s appearance. Your heart is rotten ».
