Q : Did you feel comfortable during the competition, specially that some students had the advantage of lip singing while others took off while the show was still at its start?
A : Well, let me tell you what I felt. I was always concentrating on doing my best. I was there to sing, to win, to make Jordanian people proud. I did my best according to that.

Q : We’ve all heard rumors about the Program authenticity, would you like to say anything about this issue?
A : All I can say is that it was a true experience 100%.

Q : What about the gifts sent by fans, watches, mobiles and flowers. Did you get anything of that?
A : I used to get some letters and souvenirs from fans. We as students were only receiving what has been presented to us.

Q : You’ve won the title of Jordan Singing Festival as well as participating in the MBC Album competition. According to your experience, who do you think was the best participant in Star Academy6?
A : It is definitely Abdul Aziz. Azooz deserved winning the title.

Q : Then you admit that you’re in love with Basma Boussil.

With minimum changes done to which-dress god knows, both the famous actress Megan Fox and the Lebanese pop icon Haifa Wehbe have appeared wearing from the same fashion closet. But for those of you who almost panicked, that was on totally different occasions in two seperate continents. Mrs. Haifa attened the 2009 cannes festival with that black golden patterened dress, while Ms. Megan wore the shorter version of the same dress at the 2009 MTV Video awards. Who do you think nailed it?

And when the Saudi winner of this season, Abdel Azeez Abdul Rahman took over the stage, the audience went wild. It was one of the most interesting nights held by Shabeeb festival so far. Abdul Aziz carried on with many famous Arab songs and proved that he is a star indeed.

Myriam Atallah, Hot or Not?

Myriam Atallah, a former Star Academy graduate from the first season back in 2003, has recently released a musical video promoting her new album. Just after six years, where people almost forgot who this lady is, she comes again with a cheezy outfit and a typical videoclip where the character she plays lives happily ever after!

To make my point even stronger, lets just compare her with Ahmed Sherif from Tunis, who was also a first-season graduate! The guy has been everywhere the last six years, and even though he currently has a credited fan appeal, I bet he’ll be losing it if he makes the mistakes this girl is doing. And excuse me for this, but what’s with the extra concentrated blond hair and the shiny red lip color? Is that also a point with or against her career? what do you think?

Jospeh Attieh, What’s up with the hair color?

Joseph Attieh, winner of the 4th season of Star Academy, has proved that he is an-all time winner. In June 2009, Joseph was handed a trophy for his relatively short singing history at the Murex Dor 2009 awards. He then took the stage and sang for the attendants which includedfamous arab singers, actors, and actresses. But what’s with the new look of Joseph? We all noticed that his eyebrows got thinner unlike his career, but in the photo above, Joseph seems to have a lighter hair color tone, doesn’t he? And if he chooses to dye his hair, like many arab male celebrities do, why should he risk with a reddish tone???!! Well, I don’t know an answer to that.
