I have seen her famous pictures with her tassels. I couldn't find much info on her. Just that she was turkish and worked in London. Does anyone know anything else about her? Are there video clips?

Re: Princess Banu
Thu, August 24, 2006 - 7:31 AMActually, I think Princess Banu is really Mona Said.
I have a Turkish video that features some really sleazy Turkish dancers. Then all of a sudden there is this Egyptian style dancer.
Mona Said is my friend Shadiah's favorite dancer. I showed her the video and she said "Oh my God, it's Mona Said! After she said that I recognized the style and her. Our theory is she went to Turkey to get some plastic surgery on her face. It's her face but slightly different.
That's our theory anyway. -

Thu, August 24, 2006 - 5:22 PMNow here is an article that gives lie to my theory. But after watching the video, I"m still convinced that the two are the same. Same style, same body type, same hair.

Thu, September 7, 2006 - 6:46 AMWell, like I said, the Gilded Serpent article talks of them as being 2 separate people. But when you see the video of Princess Banu you'll see why I was confused.

Re: Princess Banu
Mon, December 17, 2007 - 10:48 AMInteresting. I can't tell if that's the same dancer in the Mega Orientale video or not. Too hard to tell with all the hair tossing going on. The Princess Banu in that video had classic Egyptian style and dark hair but the face and body look similar. Has anyone gotten a hold of that video? -

Re: Princess Banu
Tue, May 20, 2008 - 4:51 PMHah! They actually have some clips now of Princess Banu on youtube. In the first, when she's younger with dark hair she looks more like Mona. In the older clips she doesn't and she's a redhead. The first clip is in the video Mega Orientale. Here's a couple:
