  Seda Aznavour: none of Aznavour family converted to Islam  February 8, 2013 - 14:28 AMTPanARMENIAN.Net - World-famed chansonnier Charles Aznavour's daughter refuted reports of her sister Katia's conversion to Islam over her marriage to a Moroccan man in a Wednesday, February 6 Facebook post. "I want to let my FB friends know that we Aznavours are confirmed Christians. Armenia was one of the first Christian states, with our ancestors having died for their faith. We're proud of our family's struggle to preserve our roots. None of the Aznavour family adopted Islam or intends to do it. It's inconceivable that we should abandon our faith and heritage," Seda Aznavour said in her Facebook post.
