In 2017, Sahar Tabar, whose real name is Fatemah Khishvand, became a sensation on Instagram thanks to her unique and exaggerated transformation into what many referred to as the "zombified" version of Maleficent's Angelina Jolie. Now, years later, following her release from prison, the world is getting an unfiltered look at the real person behind the makeup and photo edits.
Sahar Tabar's journey to internet fame began with a series of photos posted on Instagram. Using a combination of makeup, photo editing, and possibly even cosmetic surgery, Sahar crafted an appearance that could only be described as otherworldly.
Her sunken cheeks, pale skin, and hollow eyes gave her the appearance of a real-life zombie, drawing in millions of views and followers.
This fame, however, was not without its drawbacks.

Despite the mixed reactions, Sahar's photos continued to capture the public's attention, propelling her to international notoriety.
