The Fuheis Festival gains an increasing amount of success every year, yet Jordanian actor Munther Rayahneh revealed a few hours ago a dispute that might be the first of its kind between Jordanian stars.
The problem started when the stars of the festival arrived to 'Fuheis' festival including Munther Rayahneh, Mohammed Assaf and Nidaa Sharara where they were surprised to learn that they were prevented from entering the tent that was prepared for Arab and Jordanian stars taking part in the festivities.
Rayahneh shot a short video to tell what happened to him and his fellow stars from Jordanian singer Diana Karazon, as her personal body guard prevented them from entering the tent which got him agitated and drove him to address her firmly through a video saying "I am Munther Rayahneh, bye, bye"
Diana Karazon was contacted by the press to reply to Rayahneh's allegations, and it was revealed that Diana left her house in her own car to the stage's location wearing casual clothes, and once she arrived to the VIP tent that is prepared for the stars, she asked asked the photographers to leave her and her sister Zain Karazon so that she can change and wear the dress that she is supposed to appear in.
She refused to take responsibility for what happend with the other stars or take the blame for the fact that there was no other place prepared for them, especially that she had to change wardrobe more than once between Jordanian and Palestinian costumes.
As for the bodyguard that was at the tent door, Diana emphasized that she did not hire bodyguards to protect her, especially that she is in her country Jordan and in Fuheis specifically that she considers her place too.
The bodyguards presence was the festival's management choice, and that it is only natural if she brings her own photgrapher and assistants.
Diana also replied to Munther Rayahneh's statements stating that she know for sure that he is the festival's special guest, and as she knows he was supposed to be in the first row at the festival and not in the backstage, and she found it strange that he was the only one who talked about the incident among the stars that took part in the festival.
Finally, she thanked the festival's management, because they provided a place for her to be comfortable during the concert and she explained how she would never kick artists out from her tent, especially that she took pictures with some of them including Nidaa Sharara and Mohammed Assaf.
