![]() QUOTE As you might imagine, budding pop star Waffa Binladin is having a hard time convincing people to look beyond her family name. moreYes, that Bin Laden. The 26-year-old lawyer — whose family changed the spelling of their last name several years ago — and who is the estranged niece of 9/11 mastermind Osama bin Laden, has been meeting with producers and managers in the United States and England over the past year in an attempt to launch a career as a pop singer. But, despite renouncing her Muslim past, distancing herself from her infamous uncle years ago and logging time on the English club scene, Binladin has yet to shake the stigma of her surname. Do you think her name will affect her career (as in kill it or launch it)? |

so far.. her name brought her a lot of publicity that she otherwise wouldn't have gotten
i think, if anything, her name will help her in that it will give her much needed publicity and exposure, things a unknown start up singer can only dream about |
