In Turkmenistan, cultural workers were ordered to lose excess weight in preparation for the celebration of Independence Day, which will take place on September 27 of this year. Local sources reported this.
It is reported that actors, singers, and members of dance groups working in cultural and artistic institutions were given a special directive. According to this instruction, they must meet specific appearance standards in order to participate in the holiday program. If their weight does not comply with the set norms, they will be banned from performing on stage.
It has not been officially disclosed which higher authority issued this order, but the directive has caused widespread discussion among cultural workers. Some view it as a positive step for health, while others criticize it as a violation of human rights.
It should be noted that national holidays in Turkmenistan are celebrated with great pomp and official events. Artists play a central role in these celebrations, so special attention is paid to their appearance.
Currently, rehearsals and training sessions continue in many cultural institutions, and some artists have been forced to revise their personal diet plans.
