شبيهة هيفاء وهبي تظهر في الهند

' اللممثله الهندية راخي ساوانت '

كان من المقرر أن تنطلق الفنانة هيفاء وهبي كنجمة سينمائية من مصر مع فيلم من إنتاج «السبكي»، ولكن كيف حوّلت هيفاء مسارها فجأة من مصر الى الهند حيث تحوّلت بين ليلة وضحاها الى نجمة هندية مشهورة? وما هي الأسباب التي دفعت بـ هيفاء وهبي للإنطلاق من الهند؟ كل التفاصيل في التقرير التالي:

بيروت ـ «سيدتي»

في الواقع اعتقدنا للوهلة الأولى أن صاحبة هذه الصور هي الفنانة هيفاء وهبي. ولكن تبين في ما بعد أن صاحبتها هي النجمة الهندية الشهيرة في مجال السينما راخي ساوانت. وقد هالنا هذا التشابه بدءاً بملامح الوجه من العينين إلى النظرة والشفتين وطريقة استدارة الوجه والشعر الأسود الطويل.

هذا بالإضافة إلى الإبتسامة ذاتها ومقاييس الجسم ليصح المثل القائل:

و«يولد من الشبه أربعون» في مختلف أنحاء العالم. ولم تقتصر ملامح الشبه بينهما على الشكل إنما على لقطات التصوير الفوتوغرافي ذاتها المأخوذة للإثنتين سواء بين لبنان أو الهند والتشابه بالملابس وطريقة الماكياج. والصور خير دليل على ذلك. ولكن إن كانت نجمتنا هيفاء وهبي معروفة من الكبار والصغار في العالم العربي، فمن تكون في المقابل راخي ساوانت، وهل شاهدت إحداهما الأخرى أم سيكون ذلك بواسطة «سيدتي»؟

ولدت راخي ساوانت في مومباي ـ الهند، وهو الإسم الفني لها بينما اسمها الحقيقي هو نيرو ساوانت. أسرتها متواضعة ومؤلفة من والدها الذي يعمل في الشرطة ولم يكن موافقاً على دخولها مجال التمثيل. ولديها أخ يدعى راكيش وأخت تدعى جايا. اتجهت راخي لدراسة الفنون في معهد «ميثيباي كولدج»، ولم تكتف بالتمثيل التلفزيوني إنما ظهرت في أفلام موسيقية حيث مزجت أدوارها بين التمثيل والغناء. شهرتها الفعلية حققتها في مسلسل Big Boss.

ولم تسلم راخي من الإنتقادات لاعتبار البعض أنها تقدم فناً جريئاً وتطل بملابس مثيرة. وهذا الأمر تتشابه به راخي مع الفنانة هيفاء وهبي التي لم تسلم بدورها من سلسلة من الإنتقادات التي صنفتها في خانة الجرأة شكلاً وفناً.

ولكن النجمتين تحظيان كل في منطقتها بشهرة واسعة. فراخي يحبها ملايين المعجبين في الهند لجمالها وعينيها الواسعتين وأيضاً الفنانة هيفاء وهبي التي تحظى بهذه المحبة في العالم العربي.

Tamer Husni to act with Haifa Wehbe

Egyptian singer Tamer Husni has revealed that he will be acting alongside Lebanese singer Haifa Wahbi in a new film to be directed by Mohammad Al Sabki. Haifa had also expressed her joy at acting with Tamer and revealed that Tamer is one of her favorite singers.

On a different note, the entertainment world is currently talking about the obvious change in the character of Tamer, especially after he had become close with Islamic precher Amr Khaled. Tamer has announced that he considers Amr to be his role model and looks to him for advice on how to go about his life.

Amr had sent Tamer a gift, which consisted of religious tapes and books, right after he was released from prison. Since Tamer received the gift he has refrained from his usual night life, and is doing all he can to help those in need. In addition, Tamer appeared in his most recent music video without a model, which was his usual style.

Tamer has also taped all of Amr's shows, and was overwhelmed with joy when the latter told him he admired his voice and was very impressed with his talent. Amr also told Tamer that he hopes that Tamer's fans would imitate him in his quest to become closer to God and stay away from commiting sin.

The singer has strongly denied rumors that state that since his change in character he intends on quitting his singing career.

Recently, Husni has miraculously survived a near death experience. The singer was using the elevator at the Journalist Union in Cairo when it suddenly dropped from the fourth floor. Tamer was in the elevator along with singer Shadi Shamel and seven other people.

The accident occured due to a mob of fans that stormed after the singer while he was being honored by the Egyptian newspaper 'Al Moujiz'.

As the mob crowded in, the singer almost fell on the ground leading his brother Hussam to push him immediately away along with his friend Shamel to the elevator. Six of the mob were able to catch the singer and follow him into the elevator that only fits three people leading it to stumble to the ground level floor.

No serious injuries were reported except a slight cut on Tamer's hand.

Hussein Fahmi mesmerized by Haifa Wahbi's femininity

Prominent Egyptian actor Hussein Fahmi has denied circulating rumors that he has received an offer to star in a new film alongside Lebanese singer Haifa Wahbi. The actor added that no one had even suggested such a proposal.

The actor made his comments during a conference he held at the Alexandria library in Egypt, and during the conference he stated that he admires Haifa's femininity, but refused to discuss her capability of acting in a film.

On a diffferent note, after Hussein's refusal to accept another offer to star in the television drama "Imarit Ya'koubain" (Ya'koubain's Building), he went back on his decision and began to negotiate with the producing compnay.

Hussein went back on his word after director Rabab Hussein backed out of directing the drama. Writer of the drama Atef Bashai stated that Hussein was very impressed with the role he was offered, which is the role of Zaki Al Dasouki.

Atef said that Hussein liked the role because Zaki's character is very much like his.

Recently, Fahmi submitted his resignation as United Nations Goodwill Ambassador in protest of the UN's inaction to halt the recent Israeli aggression against innocent civilians in Lebanon, and the recent heart wrenching Qana bombings that killed over 60 civilians, mostly women and children.

In an official press release Hussein said, "I cannot carry on as a Goodwill Ambassador to an institution that is incapable of making any difference in a country that is under siege," as a result of Israeli strikes.

The actor said, "As an Arab artist, it is inappropriate to hold such a position at this time."

"If a small nation cannot seek the assistance of the UN, who can they turn to?," questioned Hussein. He also said the UN mistakenly characterizes the Israeli aggression as "self-defense."

A few months ago an Egyptian court sentenced Hussein to six months in prison, and a fine of 500 Egyptian pounds for swearing at two police officers. Two officers stopped Hussein's vehicle on a Cairo street, and when the officers tried to question Hussein, he began swearing at them.

Hussein paid the fine and has appealed the verdict, hoping to avoid serving the jail sentence.

Hussein's latest television drama, “Muwatin Bi Rutbit Wazeer” (A Citizen with the Rank of a Minister), was written by Yasr Al Siawi and directed by Adel Al Asser. Hussein plays a duel role in the drama of twin brothers who are complete opposites, one honest and the other corrupt.

وقال مصطفى قايد مدير أعمال هيفاء في تصريح خاص لموقع FilFan.com :

"الفيلم الأمريكي لم يتحدد اسمه بعد ، وستخرجه راندا الشهال وهى عربية من أصل لبناني وتحمل الجنسية الأمريكية ، وستقوم هيفاء بالبطولة النسائية مع نجوم هوليوود فال كيلمر وبيلي زين وهارفي كنتل".

وعن تعاقدها مع المنتج المصري محمد السبكي قال قايد : "هيفاء اتفقت بالفعل مع محمد السبكي ومضت عقداً على بطوله فيلم سينمائي من حيث المبدأ دون تحديد اسم الفيلم أو مؤلفه أو مخرجه ، وحول ما نشر بأنها تقاضت ستة مليون جنيه فلن أعلق سوى بأن محمد رجل أعمال ومنتج ويعرف كيف يستثمر أمواله ، فهيفاء نجمة العالم العربي في مجالها ، وبالتالي لابد أن تكون لها شروطا معينة ، وسيكون العمل مفاجأة وخارج التوقعات ولن يحمل أي شكل من الإثارة".

كما أضاف أن هيفاء ليست مقيمة في مصر ، وأن وجودها فيها مرتبط بأعمالها ، فهى متنقلة في كل مكان بالعالم حيث ارتباطاتها الفنية ، ونفى ما نشر عن ارتباطها برجل أعمال مصري تعيش معه في منطقة مصر الجديدة ، مؤكداً أنها أكاذيب وشائعات مغرضة.

ماذا ستقول هيفاء في عيد الحب؟

بمناسبة عيد الحب الذي يصادف في الرابع عشر من هذا الشهر، صوّرت النجمة اللبنانية هيفاء وهبي حلقة خاصة لبرنامج (قلبي دليلي) للمخرج سيمون أسمر والمقدّمة سنا نصر والذي تبثّه شاشة المؤسسة اللبنانية للإرسال مساء كل أربعاء، ، وأعربت هيفاء عن سعادتها بالمشاركة في هذا البرنامج.

هذا ونفت النجمة ما تردد مؤخراً حول زواجها من رجل أعمال مصري بعدما كثرت زياراتها إلى القاهرة، حيث أكدت أنها ليس لها أي علاقة بأي رجل أعمال مصري.

وأكدت هيفاء أن حضورها الكثير إلى مصر يعود لانشغالها بتسجيل أغنيات ألبومها الجديد المقبل، أو بهدف إحياء بعض الحفلات الغنائية ، وذلك وفقا لما ورد بجريدة البيان .

الانجاز الأبرز الذي نفّذته هيفاء مؤخّراً كان تصويرها كليب(مش قادرة استنّى) مع المخرج يحيى سعادة. وقد استعانت هيفاء في الكليب بعارض أزياء يعمل في إحدى الوكالات بلندن، وهو شبيه بلاعب كرة القدم الإنكليزي ديڤيد بيكهام. كما تنشغل حالياً في وضع اللمسات الأخيرة على ألبومها الجديد (بيبي هيفاء) وهو ألبوم غنائي للأطفال، ويحتوي على 7 أغنيات.

Haifa Wehbe joins the fight against AIDS

Moroccan AIDS activist Simo Ben Bachir plans to publish a calendar featuring Lebanese singer Haifa Wehbe to raise money for combating AIDS in Africa. Haifa will also be featured in an upcoming book.

Simo Ben Bachir, president of the Red Ribbon campaign against AIDS, has invited several international celebrities to support his association’s work against AIDS. Among Simo’s big projects this year are the 2008 calendar and book featuring Lebanese singer Haifa Wehbe. Simo talks about his project and working with Haifa.

Why did you choose [Lebanese singer Haifa Wehbe] for the 2008 calendar?

Apart from the fact that Haifa Wehbe is a superstar, she is also an ambassador for the Red Ribbon and the fight against AIDS in Africa and the Arab world. I suggested to Haifa that she might donate the best of her photos and some other exclusives to launch the official Haifa Wehbe calendar, which will be sold to raise money for forthcoming work to combat AIDS in Africa. There are plans for an official tour by Haifa with journalists and VIPs after the launch of the calendar.

How would you describe Haifa as a star and as a person? Is there any difference?

Haifa is the most modest star I’ve ever seen! I know several celebrities, but Haifa is still my favorite, whether as a fan, a collaborator or whatever! She gives you time and listens to you. I’m happy to work with her on new projects. Her official visit to Morocco last year was an enormous success, not only here but everywhere ... Haifa the artist and Haifa the woman are one and the same -- always beautiful! But it’s her inner rather than her outer beauty which is most attractive. She’s a model of modesty and kindness.

Why did you choose Haifa as the subject of your book?

I worked with Haifa in 2006 for a major campaign which was a real success for the Red Ribbon. Apart from the fact that she’s a superstar, she’s also kind and modest. I believe the public as a whole is interested in knowing Haifa, hence the idea of bringing out a book looking behind the scenes at her life and satisfying the public’s curiosity. It’s not for nothing that she receives the most media attention of any woman in the Arab world!

Why do you think Haifa is interested in the idea of having a book written about her? She’s young, and generally people write biographies about their subjects when they’re older.

Firstly, this is not a biographical book. It’s a book about a person, Haifa, star of song but also of social life, given her future travels in Africa. The book and the calendar are first and foremost for her “Haifa for Africa” campaign, with which medicines and Haifa t-shirts will be distributed across several African countries.
