<p>I&#8217;ve never seen anything like it &#8212; a music video featuring a sexy singer,<br />
a toddler, a kitten, lots of chocolate and pink fake fur.

<p>That was &#8230; interesting.</p>
<p>I was trying to figure out what the heck she was singing about, and found<br />
<a href="http://www.tnr.com/doc.mhtml?i=20060529&#038;s=diarist052906">this article on TNR</a>, and this excerpt:</p>
<blockquote><p>The shoot is for her recent single, notoriously known as the Wawa song. Supposedly, it&#8217;s meant for children&#8211;a &#8220;wawa&#8221; in Arabic is what we would call a &#8220;boo-boo&#8221; in baby talk. &#8220;See the wawa, kiss the wawa, and help it get better,&#8221; Haifa sings, dressed as various fetish archetypes like Little Red Riding Hood and a naughty schoolgirl. You don&#8217;t have to be a member of Al Qaeda to think this is a little too kinky for kindergarten. But, as I return upstairs to attend to my personal grooming and file my interview for People, I wonder if perhaps that&#8217;s exactly what all the lost boys of this lost region need: a beautiful woman with fantastic tits to kiss them where it hurts.
</p></blockquote>
<p>It answers the question of what the video was about (partially made clear by the title, in retrospect) but this was just too weird/interesting to pass on.  I have no particular comment on (or endoresement of) what the author on TNR had to say (although she &#8211; Haifa &#8211; is awfully cute.)</p>
