Ghazala, i totally agree with you.. my mum also told me she was older as she'd been around for aaaages and i too saw her upclose in an interview absolutely caked in make-up (like those middle eastern women)looked hideous and really old, i was quite surprised.i've never been a fan of hers.
its so true about her 'forgotten'darija, thats why my mum can't stand her, apparently when she left Morocco she got very snobby and didn't want to go back as 'she wasn't welcome anymore'
Natasha Atlas rocks!!
she grew up here in UK and lived in Belgium and learn't loads of languages including moroccan arabic and sings beautifully.She converted to Islam a few years ago too. I always liked her frank feisty manner in interviews
