Egyptian producer Nasr Mahrous is said to be planning to get back at Egyptian singer Shireen Abdul Wahab, whom he is facing ongoing disputes with.

Mahrous is reaching an end to the negotiations concerning a contract between his company Free Music and Lebanese singer Haifa Wahbi.

It is said that Haifa is expected to sign the contract during her next visit to Cairo, where she is scheduled to hold a number of concerts for Christmas and New Years Eve.

Mahrous is hopeful that all will go as planned and Haifa releases her next album under the production of his company, after she announced that she will not be renewing her contract with Rotana.

Mahrous has decided to give Haifa a number of songs that were originally to be sung by Shireen before she began problems with the company. This step is considered a big slap in the face for Shireen and it is not known how she will react to it.

Recently, Shireen had decided to make amends with Mahrous and the Egyptian Musician Association, and announced that she has already resolved her disputes with the Association and will make amends with Nasr, but on her own terms.

Sherine had been paying a high price for her previous decision to challenge the Association and Nasr.

Shireen described the Association’s decision to ban her as “worse than death” and she could not go on in such a position, fearing it would destroy her career.

Recently, head of the Association, Hassan Abu Soud, sent a fierce warning to Shireen to stop performing.

Shireen had opposed the decision to ban her from singing in Egypt and began perpetrating as a guest at entertainment events, giving performances after the audience repeatedly requested her to do so.

The Association warned Shireen that if she continued performing legal action would be taken against her.

Shireen was banned from performing in Egypt after Abu Soud announced the decision at a recent board of directors meeting. The decision was sent to all institutions and companies that specialize in audio and visual entertainment in Egypt and abroad, including concert sponsors.

The decision was prompted by the singer’s refusal to allow the Association’s committee to investigate the multiple accusations filed against her by record producer Nasr.

Haifa Wahbi has filmed a special episode for the program “Malakat” aired on the Egyptian satellite channel “Hya Al Mara’a Al Arabia” (Hya the Arab Woman), a channel geared toward Arab women.

According to the Qatar based daily, Al Raya, the episode will be screened in two parts, the first under the title “Haifa the Queen” and the second “Haifa the Star.” Haifa talks about the most significant moments of her career and her personal life.

The episode was filmed with journalist Sawsan Al Said, and on the program Haifa clarifies her relationship with south Lebanon, where she is from.

Haifa also performs a number of her most popular hits, in addition to the song “Mish Ader Astana” (I Can’t Wait) from her latest album, presenting it as a gift to the station.

Haifa is planning her wedding in the near future. The singer said her fiancée has the characteristics she has been looking for in a partner, describing him as the man of her dreams.

Haifa said her husband to be does not distinguish between Haifa the singer and Haifa the person. He gives her the feeling of real security and makes her feel as if she can face anything as long as he is by her side, said Haifa.

The singer said she intends to have another child. Haifa’s only daughter, Zeinab, lives with her ex-husband.

Haifa is placing the final touches on her upcoming album, but has yet to choose a new production company, suggesting she may produce the album on her own.

Despite the numerous offers she received after she ended her contract with ‘Rotana,’ the singer has not expressed any interest in a particular company.

Sameer claims that he is the owner of the song and had written it especially for prominent Syrian singer Mayada Al Hinawi , who had sang it over ten years ago, adding that it had acquired significant success.
