Shaza, The Second Most Hated Egyptian Singer


Poor Shaza, a young pop star who had more than couple of hits and a movie that made some money. At first she supported Mubarak and kept supporting him. He was shown the door, but Shaza kept talking smack about the revolution. Then her mom pased away and that was sad, Shaza did a song for her late mother on Mother's day--it was decent. She kep a low profile and did couple of concerts in colleges and clubs around Egypt. But then two weeks ago, Shaza went to visit with army officers who have been injured most recently due to the clashes with protesters. Shaza picked a fight and called the protesters fifth column! Then today she took part of a protest in support of the army, the young singer turned out to the event and spoke. I wish she has not. In her speech Shaza said that "any dog(think pig in Western culture) who wants to pick on the army, we are the ones that will kill him/her--some reports have her say, that we shall cut his/her arm" To which even the people who have been supporting the army started calling the singer names and asking her to stop talking. She was starting a strife in an really unstable place. Shaza then said something confusing, "I support the army but not the SCAF", which contradicts what she has been saying for the past 14 months or so. Why do celebrities feel the urge to dabble into politics? I do not think that Shaza is a mean person, I just happen to think that she is way over her head here. There might be some misogyny involved her Shaza is the second most hated Egyptian star at the moment, the first spot goes to Tamer Hosny. Shaza message to her fans : رساله من شذي لجمهورها
