I love Fifi but I hate fact that she's doing it in the bedroom. Isn't that every male fantasy? A belly dancer wiggling her hips in the bedroom? Unfortunately, that's how a lot of men (not all I hope!) look at it.

All right, her name can be spelled the also Fefy Abdah...funny clip, actually,
showing her in different dresses. As every day is a good day when I find a Fifi clip which I haven't seen before, today it is this

Apparently, the bedroom scene with the bellydancer is the arab equivalent of a western sex scene (I've been told) They can't be as bold as Hollywood is for obvious reasons. So the arabic idea of a daring sex scene is the man watching the woman dance, and you can almost see him drooling. Then, when she's done dancing the cameraman usually gets a shot of the bed and the scene fades out... the rest is left to the imagination. It's a typical sex scene in many, many arabic movies.

Yep. And I also hear plenty of Arab men saying that their wives dance for them. So, while it is an art form- they don't necessarily separate it from it's sensual side.

Have you noticed how Adewiya gets a little too much in the dancers' personal space in these videos? I was watching some old footage the other day of him singing while Soheir danced, and it was kinda fun to see Soheir's evasive technique.

I did notice that! But I really felt sorry for the boy. If I had that many people touching me, squeezing my cheeks, turning my head, clapping my hands for me, I think I'd go postal!

Did anyone else see on some of the Adaweya clips that people from egypt were saying he used to be a real "ladies" man if you know what I mean. He was than later casterated b/c of his "ways". Not sure if it's true or not just what was said on some of the clips I've seen about him.

There are many stories about this -- I've heard them for decades. He was definitely quite a womanizer (to put it politely) and the stories indicated that he got too friendly with the wrong woman (most common stories indicated a Saudi princess) whose family took revenge on him. I'm not sure anyone knows the facts, but the stories are certainly persistent and widespread!

I heard that the song Bnt aSul6an was inspired by that princess and ultimately caused the demise of his weenie. But then again, I would love to know what actually happened...or would I? Ouch!

This is why I love gossip!!!!!

I another clip of him and Fifi (not the one above) about 10-15 years ago and he is looking all old now and not skinny as a rail anymore. I would hate to think of someone having their manhood taken away. Although sometimes I do secretly wish my husband didn't have his anymore. But not all the time!!!
Here it is. He's singing bint el sultan while Fifi is dancing.

I love that song...although would think twice about having it played at the Muslim equivalent of a Bris (in reference to other thread).
