Guess what?: Melly wears hijab  in new music video

Kapanlagi.com

Jakarta: Pop singer and songwriter Melly Goeslaw has released a music video for her latest single '€œCinta dan Ibadah'€ (Love and Worship), which marks the first time she has worn a hijab in a music video.

'€œMy fans wanted me to stay unique and different, so I needed to experiment. I researched a lot about hijab style; I got a lot of inspiration from the Internet,'€ Melly said as quoted by tempo.co in Jakarta.

Melly, who is known for her quirky fashion choices, said she was comfortable wearing the veil.

'€œPeople say the hijab is hot, but I just feel the same. Wearing or not wearing a hijab, it still feels hot [in this climate],'€ the mother of two said.

The 40-year-old said she would keep experimenting with her fashion style. '€œMy husband and children support me. I still have a lot of clothing items in my wardrobe that I can wear with the hijab. Those that I can'€™t wear, I will donate to people who need them.'€
