Mezhgan Hussainy: Getting to Know the Future Mrs. Simon Cowell
If you haven't heard of her yet, you will. Mezhgan Hussainy, 36, is engaged to none other than Simon Cowell. Mezhgan's family, the Hussainys, were among Afghanistan's elite.
Her father was an IT expert and her family had their own driver, a nanny, a cook and a housekeeper. But things changed 30 years ago when Mezhgan's family was forced to flee war-torn Afghanistan, embarking on a 10-day hike "on foot through the mountains and the Khyper Pass." Mezghan says that she and her family were "so hungry and tired."
Mezhgan Hussainy, her parents and three brothers spent nine months in a refugee camp in Afghanistan before being permitted to move to the States.
In the States, Mezhganworked as a model and became a professional makeup artist much later. She turned down the offer to do makeup on American Idol during its first season, but accepted the job for season two. Great move! What an amazing success story.
Simon's picky as hell, so I like this chick already. You know she must be a winner.
