Hey, everyone, I was just looking through some of my Habibis last night, and I found a full, long article about Madiha. Interesting reading. :) She seems to have lived the real dance life. The article was in the 20th anniversary edition, if I am remembering correctly. Really interesting article on Jamila Salimpour as well.

Anyway, funny thing I keep noticing, is that of all these people who I have seen around over the last 10 years, many of them have been around for a long time, whereas I just thought they were fairly new to the scene. Princess Farhana, for example. She is in a lot of the early 90's issues. I don't know that she was "Princess" back then. I have seen her called just "Pleasant Gehman- Farhana."

Anyway, I am having oodles of fun reading. Lots of really interesting scholarly articles in the older Habibis. :)
