Down with the kids: Najwa Karam plans to open orphanage

Arabs Got Talent judge and singing superstar, Najwa Karam [2], has built up a substantial fortune with all her years of hit records and TV deals. But now the Lebanese diva is putting her cash to good use, setting up a new orphanage for needy kids.

Najwa has submitted her business plan [3] to a group of specialists and is planning to open the charity building by mid 2013. The songstress is reportedly ecstatic that she has finally got to do a good deed.

Meanwhile, the star has also postponed her latest single release [4] because of the recent conflict in Gaza. She told reporters she thought a pop track at this time would be "very innapropriate."
