The mother of Turkish singer Aleyna Tilki, Havva Öztel, has recently been attracting attention. Öztel made headlines after her revealing outfit at a recent event, and has now begun utilizing Instagram’s subscription feature, offering exclusive content to paying followers.
Öztel responded to the ongoing discussion surrounding her, expressing her frustration on social media.
Aleyna Tilki’s mother wrote in a social media post, “You’ve been talking about the dress I wore at an event for days… But you aren’t talking about the effort, the struggle, and the years I position in before that dress. I am a woman who exists through my work, not my body.”

“A PERSON’S MORALITY IS HIDDEN IN WHERE THEY LOOK”
“This subscription is support for my work, my sweat, and the people who believe in me. It’s not the dirty scenarios you create. It’s easy to judge a woman based on her clothes… But have you asked yourself, ‘What am I judging?’ Because a person’s morality is hidden in where they look.”
And let me say this clearly: If anyone with that mindset subscribes to me, they don’t need to bother. You can’t explain benefiting from the work of a woman you don’t respect with conscience. I keep disrespectful interest and dirty curiosity outside my door. I am Havva. My name is my work; my stance is my honor. You can’t taint it. But every sentence you construct shows everyone how you view women. The issue isn’t what I wear, the issue is where you look at a woman from.”
