Re: Saudi influence on Egyptian film industry
Thu, June 5, 2008 - 7:12 PMi recall abir sabry as an actrcess , before she covers her ultra charm so no one go crazy for her she made few films where the least thing she wore was a swim suit , and sabrine who made oum kalsoum tv series suudenly wake up on the fact that it's wrong to act and coverd her hair , and all the actrcess that all of the sudden woke up on the fact that art is a sin and seeked redpmtion by cover thier hair and wear keftans....
u made faults & sins in your career , fine , go ahead and ask forgivness from god ,but don't tell me that the whole art is a sin just to justify your mistakes.....
and who seek forgivness does not show off with it , it's a relation between the person and god , not to be broadcasted to people unless it's a publicity....
the middle east live a double standard , it changed to more extreme fanatics minds
saudi buy everything with thier money , art cables bought all the egytians films from the 30s onwards....they also bought hegab for actrcess and beards for actors and grow tv sheaks in thier backyard......sick -

Fri, June 6, 2008 - 7:38 PMHany, I don't know whether this is true (perhaps you can confirm), but I've been told that a number of women in show business (such as Sahar Hamdi) have been paid substantial sums of money by the Imams to retire from public life and take the veil. Could it be that this is why Abir Sabry, Sabrine, and others took the veil? -

Re: Saudi influence on Egyptian film industry
Fri, June 6, 2008 - 8:27 PMnot only dancers , there was a rumor when shadia quit art in late 1988 that she has been paid a lot of money to do so and wear hegap and furthermore that she was going to marry sheakh sherawi who was behind the retirment of many actrcess ....
i believe that sahar hamdy-hala safi- zizi mustafa saw the sunset of thier career while they were offerd a sum of money to reitre so they grabed the chance...
that goes also for suhir ramzy-afaf shoiwb , though thet made a come back to act again with hegab , a while ago i saw a program about madha kamel where she ware hegab in her last days but due a personal experince m as she blamed herself for her younger brother death she felt that she want nothing else from the world and took religious side
the whole process of wearing hegab by female artists is wierd , if u seek redpmtion u can do it anytime , with or without hegab , the clothes is only cover what counts is the heart and mind , finaly my view of this it's 80% busniess & publicity
as for abir sabry , i saw her in more than interview talking about men & women ,this woman was divorced , made religious programs in sattlite channeland stopped and returned to acting in tv series , this woman does not know what she want ..
