Album Covers Are Suffering From Censorship In Iran, And The Result Has Made Women Disappear From Them
Women in bikinis, sleeveless T-shirts, and miniskirts may even be common and totally acceptable in the West, but in the Middle East, things are a bit different.
In countries with a majority of the Islamic population, such as Iran and Saudi Arabia, there are strict rules regarding the exposure of the female body, making such garments unacceptable. In these places, only a woman’s face and hands can be displayed.
Two years ago we showed here at Bored Panda how female singers got on their music albums after Iranian streaming service MELOVAZ used photoshop to “cover” them with more clothes. Now they went further, simply took the women off their albums.
Scroll down and see for yourself!

What? Your comments are ridiculous. This censorship is ridiculous. These are some bad a*s women who are inspiring others to be body confidant and inspiring women to know that the real them is amazing and should be seen. You can't just erase a woman's face from her work. You can't erase women period. Quit trying to suppress us. If you don't like it, don't but the album.

The citizens are probably glad they are even allowed to listen to female singers!
