Egyptian singing sensation Ruby, who has managed to achieve tremendous popularity among the young generation with only two songs, has revealed that her life’s dream is finding Mr. Right. Ruby stressed that its her quest to find a man who loves her to the point of insanity and makes her everything in his life.
According to the daily, Al Ray Al Aam, Ruby added that the characteristics of her Mr. Right is that he has all the qualities of a real man has which are strength, sensitivity and ambition. Ruby’s career began with her making television commercials and then step by step she managed to achieve popularity and enter the competition in the music industry.
Recently, the Egyptian Music Association has filed a complaint against the Ruby for singing without obtaining a permit and not being a part of the association, which every singer must be a member of. The Association also decided to file a second lawsuit against the production company that produced Ruby’s songs and filmed them in the form of a video clip, which is considered an illegal act according to the Association’s article 8 of their laws and regulations for 2003.
The officials of the association also discussed the improper and shameful appearance of Ruby in both of her music videos, which were directed by Sharif Sabri. In the first video Ruby appears in a belly dancer’s costume dancing in the streets, and in the second she is wearing a very indecent red dress and a training suit, which reveals most of her body. In the second clip Ruby is basically seductively moving her body without dancing just highlighting her most attractive features.
Ruby’s videos were considered foolish holding no significant meaning just arousing chaos among members of the Egyptian Parliament stressing that she insults the ethical religious norms of society. Members of Parliament also demanded that Ruby’s music videos be banned from airing on all Egyptian channels, a request which has been implemented a couple of weeks ago.
On her part, Ruby defended her videos by stressing they hold simple ideas, which the director thought of. She added that in her first video she simply wears a belly dancer’s costume which is part of Egyptian folklore and holds no negative aspect to it and should not be considered improper. –Albawaba.com
