NAZANIN: Beauty Queen Poised for Global Stardom

Iranian-born beauty offers fans a multitude of talents

Nazanin, Persian exotic beauty enticing the masses with her unique sound while spreading her message of love and peace through the vibrant music she creates.

An ambassador to Canada as Miss World Canada and 1st runner up in the global competition, Nazanin’s allure is far surpassed by her kind heart. Using the gifts she has been given to make difference in the world,
Nazanin spends any spare moment devoting herself to volunteering her time to several charities. Unceasingly aiding areas less fortunate globally including relief work in the Tsunami effected regions.

Born in Tehran, Iran during the turmoil of the countries Revolution. Forced to leave every worldly possession behind so her family could flea the fury to freedom
when her father had been jailed and tortured by the Revolutionary Guard, it was the family’s escape to Europe, finally settling in Vancouver, British Columbia that saved them from the political persecution. Faced with such oppression so early in life, the revolution impacted her core.

As a young teen, Nazanin immersed her self in knowledge constantly educating herself in global issues. She became a Royal Canadian Air Cadet and obtained the highest rank of Warrant Officer First Class along
with gliders and private pilots licenses. Then acquired a double major degree in International Relations and Political Science at UBC in Vancouver, L’Institut d’Etudes Politiques (Sciences Po) in Paris and International Study Center at Herstmonceux Castle in England. During university Nazanin paved her way with consistent work as both a model and an actress, along with teaching Global Education through the Red Cross. Nazanin searched for a way to impact the lives of those in need. While Nazanin was happy to reach out to some, she yearned to help more. To have a stronger impact, and to reach the masses she knew she had to have a title of some kind, that is when she began her work in the Miss World organization. However, it wasn’t until the Miss Canada crowning that Nazanin once again felt the pressures of adversity. Nazanin was the first Persian to win then sought after title in this prevalent scholarship pageant. This honor was received with a large amount of controversy and caused quite a stir in the Iranian community. Nazanin received hate mail from Islamic fundamentalists and at the same time accolades from the youth in Iran who supported her goals and looked to her as a role model. It is the Miss World motto “beauty with purposeâ€
