1983

Laleh was born in the Northern Iranian harbour town of Bandar-e Anzali, but fled the country in 1983 with her parents to live in Azerbaijan, and later moving on to Minsk and a refugee camp in Tidaholm.

Laleh (لاله) is the Persian word for tulip, a popular girl's name as well a common symbol in Iranian culture.

She moved to Sweden when she was eight (she has dual citizenship), and in her teenage years moved to Gothenburg to attend school in the multicultural district of Angered.

At Hvitfeldtska High School she was enrolled in the music program, growing up with classical music, ballet and circus music.

An opponent of the Islamic regime in Tehran, he was an artist, journalist and prominent Iranian ethnologist and rural sociologist from Bandar-e Anzali.

During her appearance on Så mycket bättre, she discussed her tough childhood, moving from country to country, and how she witnessed her father's death.

At a summer camp in 1994, he tried to rescue a woman who had fallen from her canoe into the water.

As Houshang paddled out to help her, the canoe overturned.

The woman survived but Laleh's father drowned.

Laleh's mother, Atefe, was a refugee from Georgia via Azerbaijan before she went to Iran to study comparative literature at the University of Tehran.

Once the family arrived in Sweden, Laleh learned Swedish in eleven days, according to a media account of her biography.
