Jila Sadeghi Took Back Her Words
The memory of Jila Sadeghi withdrawing from a television program due to broadcasting limitations on attire is still fresh. Jila Sadeghi, who at the time tried to portray herself as a hero who did not yield to criticisms of her clothing, has now made a notable shift, retreating from her previous stance. Sadeghi emphasized that the broadcasting organization has never been strict about her attire and clothing style.
In January of this year, Jila Sadeghi hosted the ‘Good Morning’ program wearing an outfit that caused much controversy. The outfit resembled a suit and skirt, and since it was unprecedented on television, it quickly became newsworthy. Jila Sadeghi now expresses surprise and amazement at the uproar over her clothing, as if it were something ordinary and customary. With an innocent tone, Sadeghi questions why there was so much fuss about her attire.
Following Jila Sadeghi’s new statements, some social media users have written that the clothing restrictions in the broadcasting organization have previously been raised by female hosts from the same organization. Ms. Jila Sadeghi was among those who had previously mentioned the quasi-conflict and restrictions regarding women’s clothing, and this is neither a figment of the public’s imagination nor a baseless hostility.
More than two years ago, Jila Sadeghi was supposed to return to television hosting after a long absence with the cooking show ‘Cooking with Mom,’ but she withdrew from the show by posting a story on her personal page. The important reason for her withdrawal was due to censorship on her clothing style. Jila Sadeghi explained that some subjective censorship by the main program staff in designing her outfit led to her withdrawal. In her story, Sadeghi wrote, hoping for a day when the pleats on a woman’s sleeve in my country won’t cause a problem for her presence or absence.
