Saber Rebai denies rumors of mystery fiance

Saber Rebai faces down rumors of him and a girl said to be his fiance. He is having an uneasy relationship with the press lately.

Once again, Tunisian singer Saber Rebai [2]has to face his music, with new rumors surrounding him. At least this time they're not as damming for the pan-Arab singer's career as recent mudraking that accused him of deliberately featuring the Israeli flag in his latest music video [3]. Rebai filed a lawsuit against those responsible for spreading 'slander' earlier this month.

So what is the new rumor saying? The latest Saber-talk concerns photos of him emerging on multiple websites with a mystery young girl rumored to be his fiancé.

During an interview Saber Rebai gave from Lebanon [4]where he was performing at the Lebanese Balbeck Music Festival, [5] he gruffly deniedthe rumor of his alleged engagement and stressed that there was no basis for such a lie.

It is public knowledge that Saber has not quite finalized his divorce procedings from current wife and mother of his children. This is not the first time photos of Saber with a young woman purported to be his fiancé have surfaced.

In fact, his love life or love interests -- from whether he fancies Lebanese women to who he was spotted out with - have been occupying the Arab media circuit for a while now. The singer's relationship with the press has been souring.
