Bin Laden is to launch a pop career - but it is only a relative of the world's most wanted villain.
Osama Bin Laden's niece Waffa is in talks with high profile executives, hoping to sign a lucrative record deal.
Madonna producer Nellee Hooper and All Saints' discoverer John Benson have shown interest in Waffa, who is a regular on the London party scene.
Benson says, "She has a very dusky and sultry voice and has real potential. It is hard for her with her name, but I am giving her some songs I think she could be a success.
"She is very polite and sweet and has recorded stuff in the States. It is adult pop." Waffa is said to look a little bit like Natalie Imbruglia, and is a US-educated lawyer, according to reports.
