Off-duty, she teams jeans with crisp shirts and big sunglasses. Aware that she has grown up in the public eye, Ajram told <i>Vogue Arabia</i> in a 2019 interview: “I sought [a] change in appearance because I can no longer reflect the image of the cute girl. “Yet I am also convinced that no matter what I do, my audience will always see me as someone with a baby face. Perhaps this has something to do with my smile. That’s what those who have been following me for the past two decades tell me. But I also like to appear as a woman whose clothes and body do not hinder her from expressing her feelings and choices.” <b>Scroll through the gallery above to see more images of Nancy Ajram over the years.</b>
