A few months ago (august 2007) I wrote here about a ban against Egypt actor Amr Waked. A similar story is now surfacing in Bahrain with the provocative singer Haifa Wehbe.
.
…”Politicians attempt to ban Arab sex symbol
Lebanese model and singer Haifa Wehbe, known in the Arab world for her raunchy, sex symbol persona, has succeeded where many others have failed by facing down conservative voices in the gulf state of Bahrain.
Wehbe, who has forged a successful career across the Middle East, performed for an invited audience in Bahrain April 30 despite all but one of the members of the Islamist-dominated parliament approving a motion urging the government to ban her perf. The pols were protesting about what they deemed her sexually provocative appearances.

This time round, however, Wehbe has emerged the victor in the battle between moderates and conservatives over artistic freedoms.”…see more.
In more details, I quote, “Lebanese singer Haifa Wehbe, known for her sexy looks and revealing outfits, went ahead with a performance in Bahrain despite an attempt by the Islamist-dominated parliament to stop the show.
“Haifa Wehbe was dressed modestly. She was almost veiled,” Adel Surour, 37, who attended the Wednesday night show with his family, said on Thursday. ‘Her performance was measured compared to her usual demeanour. We thoroughly enjoyed the show.’ Surour said the audience consisted mainly of families, including Gulf Arabs from neighbouring countries.”…see more.

good stuff:korzac, I like this story. It’s good stuff. Damn, she is a beauty, she could certainly launch a few hundred warships on looks alone. Yep, wearing a hijab certainly would be a crime. I think Jordan and I are envisioning Wonder Woman Outfit would clinch the deal for us!

korzac at 03:21 on May 11th, 2008Barry, perhaps the Islamists in Bahrain don’t regret to see their ban overthrow by such a divine beauty..

She’s a slutty loser. SO are muslims in general, when the front is removed – but what good does she do fighting not for freedom of decent femininity, but freedom to be indecent?

Seriously this b*tch cannot dress modest for her life.No wonder women wear bedsheets there. It’s because when you let women go free in arab nations they act like this.I love that guy who made this fake man cry,Tony. I bet those tears weren’t even real.Nothing about this sl*t is real!

Haifa is a shallow slut who has no talent but to strip. and the men that enjoy it are losers and failures because they dont c the fact that shes just eye candy for every1 to see, and please ur eyes with.
every1 uses her up untill shes through with, more like a rotten apple thats fallen on the floor and stepped on many times untill its disgusting.
estaghfur allah. she should be banned from singing.
thank u haifa for failing to help muslim women or women in general show modesty and respect.
who would have respect for a stripper?
nobody should ..
she cant sing at all…
is every1 just forgetting that theres a thing called tallent?
im proud of Amr Mostafa for not agreeing to sing with her, because he knows where true talent is.
