Relations between Egyptian singer Shireen Abdul Wahab and her producer Nasr Mahrous have become tense once again after Shireeen refused to accept the leading role in the film "Omar and Salma," alongside singer Tamer Husni.
Circulating rumors claim that Shireen declined since Tamer appeared in over 80% of scenes, not giving the other actors their rightful time.
Nasr offered to double the scenes she would appear in, but she still declined.
After Shireen’s refusal, Tamer immediately contacted Mai Izz El Din and offered her the leading role.
Shireen stresses the importance she places on presenting a new style to her fans, so they remain anxious for more. "Renewing my style does not only mean changing my look or appearance, but also includes working with new composers and singing in different dialects," stated Shireen.
Shireen asserted that not everything that is written about her in most tabloids is true, and "one shouldn’t believe everything they hear or read."
Shireen recently asserted that she never had plastic surgery because she is satisfied with her looks, and has only undergone minor dental work to improve her smile.
Shireen stated that she has not yet perfected the dialect of the Gulf countries, which is why she has yet to record songs in the dialect, but plans to do so in the near future.
