Fouzia Azeem (Urdu: فوزیہ عظیم; 1 March 1990 known by her stage name Qandeel Baloch (Urdu: قندیل بلوچ), is a Pakistani model, actress, social media celebrity and activist. She is the country's first social media celebrity.[1] Azeem rose to prominence due to her videos on social networks discussing her daily routine, her rights as a Pakistani woman, and various controversial issues.[2][3]
Baloch first received recognition from the media in 2013, when she auditioned for Pakistan Idol; her audition became popular and she became an Internet celebrity.[4][5] She is one of the top 10 most searched-for persons on the internet in Pakistan and was both celebrated and criticised for the content of her videos and posts.[6]
