Zahia Dehar Biography

Zahia Dehar is one of the most popular and richest Fashion Designer who was born on February 25, 1992 in Algeria. She is an American-born fashion designer Cameron Funiss.

Zahia Dehar (born 25 February 1992) is a French-Algerian fashion and lingerie designer, prostitute, model and actress who was once known for her role in an underage prostitution scandal.

The case started to come to light during an investigation by the Brigade de répression du proxénétisme into the activities of Abousofiane Moustaid, also known as “Abou Sofiane”, a former contestant on Nouvelle Star who became the host of a celebrity show on the TNT channel. The authorities were particularly interested in the Zaman Café, a Parisian bar, part of whose turnover came from prostitution. After the administrative closure of the establishment, the police officers questioned the prostitutes who worked there. They discovered that one of them, Zahia Dehar, started to work there while she was still a minor, and had also served several footballers. The young woman claimed to have met Karim Benzema in May 2008 on the sidelines of the Trophées UNFP du football ceremony, and to have met Franck Ribéry on 7 April 2009, in a hotel in Munich where she and another escort had been sent to join the footballer, as a “birthday present” for the latter. Zahia Dehar was interviewed three times in April 2010.

Her younger brother and she spent their first years together in Ghriss (Algeria) and their entire childhoods in Champigny-sur-Marne (France). After her alleged prostitution acts were revealed, her father Hacene Dehar cut all contact with her.

Her lingerie collections include Iced (“Givre”) and Cake and Candy (“Gateau et Bonbon”) as well as “Love” (“Amour”)

Zahia Dehar was born in Ghriss, Algeria, on 25 February 1992. She moved to Champigny-sur-Marne, France with her mother and younger brother at the age of 10. She entered into prostitution at the age of sixteen, and was successful in the world of high-end prostitution, earning up to €20,000 per month at the rate of €1,000 or €2,000 a time.

The case continued until the mid 2010s. In late 2011, the Paris prosecutor asked for a dismissal for Ribéry and Benzema; but in August 2012, nine people were sent back by the investigating judge to the criminal court, including Benzema and Ribéry for “solicitation of minor prostitute”.

Very quickly, her face was revealed by the media, and many photos of her circulated on the web, making the young woman a real “Internet phenomenon”. Le Monde initially revealed her name, simply calling her “Zahia D.” In May 2010, she gave an interview to Paris Match, which revealed her full name. She gave her version of the case and declared, among other things, “I consider myself an escort, but not a prostitute” (providing support services without having sex with the client), and denied having a pimp or belonging to a network.

In 2009, Dehar, who was then under 18, was allegedly paid for sex by Franck Ribéry and Karim Benzema, who were players on the French national football team. The age of consent in France is 15, but prostitution is legal only if the worker is over the age of 18.

The investigation became public in 2010, just before the French team participated in the 2010 FIFA World Cup. The then-current French national team manager Raymond Domenech cited Benzema’s struggle for form with his new club Real Madrid rather than his alleged involvement in the sex scandal as his reason for excluding the striker from the squad.
