What scandal nearly
led to the end of George Wassuf’s Career. |
Early in 1997, George Wassuf was
caught in a sexually compromising situation with one
of his music video models in Lebanon. However, that
wasn’t the end of it. Alongside the model, Wassuf
was caught enjoying another source of pleasure;
Cocaine. The singer was then immediately arrested.
However, charges were dropped, suddenly, due to ‘a
lack of proper evidence.’
Ironically, that same year, 15 Lebanese students
were charged with drug use although no drugs were
present on them!

Egyptian
Pop Star Takes Inspiration from India |
Egyptian pop star Hisham Abbas relied
on a love of Indian films going back to his
childhood for his latest Hindi-inspired hit song,
the video for which was shot at the Taj Mahal.
"I loved Indian movies as a child. I was
infatuated with the music and dancing," the
37-year-old graduate of the American University of
Cairo told a press conference ahead of a beach
concert in Dubai on Wednesday.
Abbas, fresh from an eight-city tour of the United
States, has attracted a growing audience of
expatriate Indians in the Gulf after his latest hit,
Nari Narein, included Hindi phrases and melody.
The video was "recorded and videoclipped in
India in the form of an Indian show that was shot
near the Taj Mahal," said Abbas, sporting a
bandana, long sideburns and trimmed goatee.
He added that he will have completed a movie by the
end of this year that "will be a musical, with
dancing and singing, a love story, with old and new
actors." |

Kuwaiti Singer
Returns Home, Denies he Insulted the Koran |
 |
Kuwait's leading pop singer Abdullah
Ruwaished, condemned to death by a Saudi religious
edict last week, returned to Kuwait Tuesday from the
US and strongly denied he had insulted Islam's holy
book, the Koran.
"I have never even thought of insulting the
holy Koran. I am amazed at the Fatwa that was issued
against me even before finding out the truth,"
Ruwaished told AFP from his home near Kuwait City
which was under police protection.
The edict, issued Thursday by Saudi cleric Hmoud bin
Shuaibi, accused Ruwaished of insulting the Koran,
by turning one of its chapters into a song.
But Ruwaished, who has been the leading singer in
Kuwait for two decades, said the controversial song
was made in 1996 and was broadcast over state-run
radio and TV stations many times.
"It does not include any verse from the holy
Koran. It's a popular poem written by a Kuwaiti poet
several years ago," a relaxed Ruwaished said.
Several clerics, representing Kuwait's leading
Islamic groups have spoken in Ruwaished's defence,
saying that the "fatwa is illegal" because
it was not issued by the concerned authorities.
Ruwaished, 40, left the emirate for the United
States on Friday. He said his visit was scheduled
before he learnt of the fatwa.
Earlier this year, organisers of the Hala February
shopping festival, bowed to pressure by Islamic MPs
and banned popular Lebanese singer Aasi al-Hellani
over accusations that he had sung verses from the
holy Koran |
