that girl that danced on the stage simply being overwhelmed.......it was a mistake,atleast in that part of the islamic world.even her co-contestants were criticizing her ridiculous move........Islam for us muslims is supreme and that's final.

that is what you called an afghan culture and stop brining ISALM into it i beleive christanity is sickening because of religiouse idols have to do something with little kids

[yoops]

The Islamic culture is sickening, I'm watching the Afghan star and people were saying one of the singers should be killed because she "danced" (she just walked around) on stage. Religions all claim morale superiority but this is just disgusting.
