Carole Samaha is 'Hors compétition'


This comment was posted by marcella_lebanon & doesn't reflect WALEG's opinion:

Carole Samaha

Carole Samaha doesn't belong to Haifa Wahbi, Ruby and Nancy Ajram group.
The girl is a University graduate in Scenic and Theater arts, has so much class, has a genuinely beautiful voice and she was for a couple of years the star of the Rahbani performances. Her being sexy (Which is a mere plus in her case) is not enough to compare her with Ruby or Haifa.

Even Nancy... she is since a young age a "Tarab" singer mainly depending on her talent but had to remake her looks to cope with the ever-growing demand on pretty stars. But really come on guys... anyone who finds her "sexy" should go out more :) She has a kiddo appeal rather than a sex bomb one...

Despite all the talk and critics against Ruby, I don't find her that provoking, by Lebanese standards that is. Sometimes, well yes she can be vulgar, but it's all Sabri's fault.

In one clip you could catch a good glimpse of the cellulite in her thighs, or focus on her rather bulging belly in low rise pants, which is totally uncalled for.
The voice is not bad at all, and though her features are not like the silicone queens features, she has a natural beauty and not "redone". Sabri should present her in a sexy but classier package.

As for Haifa... Uhmm what can I say
Totally redone, too depending on sex appeal and voiceless but then again.... So wonderful to watch!
She seems so carefree that you can forget your worries for a minute or so when she speaks utter nonesense with her Bardot-like accent... and her songs are valid and widespread in wedding dinners and nightclubs by the way, so whether you like it or not that woman is a high selling artist! Well I mean, if you had on one channel someone as talented and un-sexy like Ahlam for instance and on the other Haifa... chances are you're gonna tune for the second one!

So, each of these girls has pros and cons but PLEASE, Carole Samaha is "hors-competition" for that matter.

    I like Carole Samaha. She is nothing compared to Haifa, nor Ruby.
    In my opinion, Haifa and Ruby are nothing but entertainers. I do not listen to their songs, and never will. They are voiceless. I dislike them in all means.
    They are a shame to the Arab World.

    I totally agree with you Samara and marcella_lebanon.

    There is no comparison between Carole and Haifa, Nancy, and Ruby.

    I will never listen to Haifa and Ruby. At least, Nancy is OK.

    YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS Someone FINALLY said something truthful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Carole Samaha is one of the best !!!!!!!! Im not saying nancy and haifa r bad but they have their own style.. and carole samaha has her own, too... she shouldnt have been in the WALEG poll

    Carole is amazing! I find her to be classy, intelligent, educated, polite, poignant, pretty, and full of charisma. What a wonderful representation of Lebanese woman! Her songs are upbeat and have meaning but are also romantic and soft. Everything about this woman is classy and I'm so glad that she is a successful singer!
    That's not to say that I don't like Nancy, Elissa, Haifa, Darine, etc...Their songs are wonderful, they are beautiful girls and I enjoy blasting their music in my car or dancing to their innovative beats. They all seem very sweet and cool and their style is awesome. But I just feel like Carol is on a different level as a performer, as an entertainer, and as a role model!

    I think Carole smeha is a talented artist, i agree in all ways that she's great. But in the music industry, its not all about talent anymore, its like business. I like the way Carole is but shes too ordinary, she needs to stop playing it safe and do something controversial or different that way she'll stand out. by contorversial i dont mean she has increase her sex appeal(although that would help) or show skin, but I mean she needs to find away to get more attention. what i like about her is that she doesnt depend on her looks sooo much, but she needs to make her music or her look stand out in a different way.
    i dunno, maybe its just me, but to be honest i find her BORING.

  1. mina | April 26, 2005 10:27 PM

    Im not saying that she needs to blend in with Haifa, Nancy and compnay.......because to me their good but in a way all the same. Carole just needs to elaborate on her style more.

    Thats awesome waleg... ya carol cant be compared by haifa and ruby.. she has a gr8 voice and she is a great performer too... she sings with nice feelings and all of her songs and vedio clips are very good! but i guess that carol can be compared with nancy... because i feel nancy isnt like haifia and ruby.. she is much more intelgent and politer... she has very nice songs and sings because she likes to sing not because she wants to show her sexy body and bad voice like haifa and ruby....

    Sarah
  1. mina | April 27, 2005 1:09 AM

    if Nancy did not have all that surgery and took care of her image, she would not be successful at all. her voice is really sweet but it wouldnt take her as far. fortunatley, she know how to improve and show her image, sexy but still really inocent and sweet. about 85% of an artist success these days comes from the looks and style, in the case of Haifa wehbe is 100% flat.

    hey guys,
    carol is great im not saying that the others arent they are all good, haifa nancy ruby, but i think carol has more of a serios and better personality then the others, she also has a better voice and is cute,, however they are all great and wonderful to listen and watch...

  1. hmmm | April 27, 2005 4:42 AM

    i think that each of them brings different qualities to entertainment. I think Carole should not have been in that poll b.c she is totally different classy, smart, polite etc. nancy is cute and has a fun personality she is okay looking and has good songs. Ruby can sing- better then Haifa at least and is much more beautiful then Haifa, Ruby is sexy but in a more natural way then Haifa. Haifa is just very ugly and fake looking, she cant sing or dance and is totally superficial. I'm not saying I like Ruby but I definitly think she is better then Haifa in all respects. Haifa is just trashy.

    hmmm
  1. leila | April 27, 2005 4:46 AM

    Well, I think they are all totally differnt and u cant really categorize them. Carole is smart,polite, beautiful and talented. Nancy is cute, polite and talented to some extent. Ruby is not the best performer but she is sexy, lets face it and not try to be jealous of her looks. She is more natural then Haifa and has a decent voice, I definitly like her better then Haifa. Haifa in my opinion is just totally trashy and fake. She is vulgar, cant sing, ugly, cant dance and is very superficial. I'm not saying I like Ruby but I think she is all around better then Haifa.

    CAROLE SAMAHA HAS A GOOD VOICE BUT SHE IS SO DAMN UGLY COMPARED TO HAIFA AND RUBY.... I DONT LIKE CATFACE NANCY AJRAM THEREFORE IM NOT GONNA EVEN MENTION HER BUT SHE DOES HAVE A FEW GOOD SONGS.
    AND WHO CARES IF CAROLE IS A UNIVERSITY GRADUATE MORE THAN HALF OF THE BIG STARS AROUND THE WORLD DONT EVEN HOLD A UNIVERSITY DEGREE BUT THEY ARE STILL SUCCESSFUL AND RICH AND LIVE A BETTER LIFESTYLE THAN SOME PPL WITH MASTERS AND PHDS.

  1. the truth | April 27, 2005 5:42 AM

    i can't beleive it ok let's face it carole samaha has a great voice ruby attractive and sexy in the real egyptian look compare to the other egyptian grils cause they don't have so many beautiful girls and ruby's voice is okkkay ...... but nancy ajram is okay from the physical side everyone know that she's done so much to look like that on her face but i still don't think that she's hot that's my opinion about nancy there's way more beautiful lebanese girl out there 100 time better than nancy ajram but still she's smart she knows what the people need and what the audience like but even her voice without filters and natural doesn't sound that good ......and finaly haifa her voice is zerooo she want to sing no matter what and she doesn't care about what people think of her but the truth is that no matter what everyone said haifa soooooooo damn hot even enrique iglesias in his interviw with her said that he rather have a video clip with haifa better than shakira and he did said so even shaggy ....so many amercian and european producer who's been asked about her they said they think she's the most beautiful mideleastern women they ever seen so far so please do not lie haifa is sooooooooooo hooooooooooot no comparasion bettween her and any other female arabic singer no matter what ... just one look in the camera with her eyes makes every single men on earth bow for her and forget about carole samaha voice and nancy and ruby and elissa .......... everyone other female singer beleive there's something specail about haifa and all the womens who said haifa is not pretty or is ugly i'll them go to hell you're just jealous she is just a real arabic beauty dark long hair dark grey eyes which's extremly special and light skin ....what could be better with some well defined body part ...please forget it at least 99% of mens maybe not for womens but who cares such a beauty is for mens not for womens .
    and what ever you agree or not that's all the truth

    the truth
  1. MOI | April 27, 2005 6:10 AM

    THE TRUTH HAS JUST SAID THE TRUTH.

    WOMEN WISH THEY COULD LOOK AS GOOD AS HAIFA WHEN THEY REACH HER AGE. DONT FORGET THAT HAIFA IS WELL OVER 30 (ABOUT 35 I THINK) AND SHE DOES HAVE AT LEAST ONE DAUGHTER (12 YEARS OLD I THINK) DONT SUE ME IF MY INFORMATION IS NOT PRECISE CAUSE ITS 5 AM AND I JUST CAME BACK FROM A NIGHT OUT AND IM NOT FULLY SOBER THANKS TO MY DEAR FRIEND MR JACK DANIELS.
    AND CONTRARY TO POPULAR BELIEF... HAIFA HAS NOT HAD MUCH PLASTIC SURGERY. SHE ONLY HAD HER NOSE DONE. BUT HOW I WISH THOSE FEMALE SINGERS ESPECIALLY THE LEBANESE ONES WOULD STOP THESE NOSE JOBS AND CHEEK JOBS AND EYE JOBS AND ETC.... STAY NATURAL ITS MUCH BETTER.... WELL I DONT MIND THE BOOB JOBS :) THATS ACCEPTABLE IN MY EYES :)

    to "The Truth" , who are you to judge on the egyptian or lebanease beauty, i think egyptians are not artificial as they don't depend on plastic surgeries to show off. as for carole i think she is good singer who doesn't belong to haifa, ruby and nancy's level. i think that that she, elissa and amal hegazy are on the same level, singers who have good voices with very good songs but hey still didn't reach asala and angham's level. this is just my opinion thanx

    hi what's up weld el khaleej
    by the way listen that's just a way of talking when i said bow for her is not something real that will happend that's just to describe for you how much i beleive that haifa wehbe is beautiful and by the way is don't think there's comparisson bettween haifa wehbe and nancy ajram it's like comparing princess diana et celine dion with her fake nose ....sort of and plus nancy look too european and she's too thin compare too haifa she's still keeping her arabic view and beauty she even has some flesh in her body part and i think her body is natural compare to nancy the fake barbie girl plus arabic men doesn't like that much skiny tiny lady they like some meat there .... plus haifa is in her late 30 about 37 or 38 with a daughter of 14 years old plus even if you bow for haifa is better than you bow for nancy after she gave 10% of her money of her coca cola compagne commercial to support israel and the israeli goverment against the palastinien so that something that will make you think more haifa has a physical beauty and herat beauty and won't do something bad against her own people but she still doesn't have a good voice and won't have it compare to nancy who has a beautiful voice and look what she's done to her own people ( well if she consider herself arabic of course ) by supporting the coca cola compagny who's owned by jews not even that but giving 10% to support israel ....... what a crayzy girl and i beleive haifa wehbe is muslim but i'm not sure of that so think more who's better haifa or wahbe ya khaleij .......and tell me

    "The Truth" have you ever been to Egypt? i'd like to say that the samll percentage you r talking about concerning actresses doesn't present the egyptian beauty in any way there r many other girls (not in media field) who r more beautiful than girls working in media fields, even in low levels you will find girls who are very beautiful. and again we are not artificial and don't depend on plastic surgeries and this is the truth.

    yeah louka u r right.

    as i was last year in egypt i went to many discos/malls resorts and what ever there, and as usuall there were so many beautiful girls.
    -------
    and now to you "the truth" the girls in the media field are NOT taken coz of their beauty- NO .
    they were taken coz of their talents.
    -keep that in your mind-

    nancy is harly sexy at all... its hard to see her eyes with her huge cheeks ... and between them .. rests her very small nose .. but with parashoot looking holes ... NOT SEXY..
    its nice to have features .. hayfa overdoes it .. too big ..bas fe3lan m6ag3a lal denya..
    carol sama7a has looks and voice .. she's really great. .. cute,sexy , and yet a good singer..
    if u ask me the best arab female singer (don't make me start with male singers) is julia botros
    classy voice and music .. just love her

    ""plus even if you bow for haifa is better than you bow for nancy""

    la nancy wala haifa..wala wa7da minhum i bow for her..why would i a9lan..shsawaw ohma?

    ""is better than you bow for nancy after she gave 10% of her money of her coca cola compagne commercial to support israel and the israeli goverment against the palastinien so that something that will make you think more""

    this won't make me think more..if she wants to give part of her money suport some people..it's allright..it's her money..she does with it what she wishes, o ya3ni what did u think, that i like palestine? no actually i hate palestineans, and i hate jews..so i don't care, by the way i'm kuwaiti..so may be that'll give u an idea y i hate them (1990/91 war) i'll never forget that..we were in london at that time..and some jews actually helped us..ilmuhim that's not the subject..o by the way..i really don't think u never drank a coke.. ;)

THEY CANNOT SING LIVE AND THEY ONLY SOUND GOOD WHEN THEIR VOICES HAVE BEEN DIGITALLY REMASTERED IN THE STUDIOS. WHO CARES IF SHE WAS A STAR IN THE RAHBANI PERFORFORMANCES OR IF SHE HAS A DEGREE... THE RAHBANIS SUCK THEY THINK THEY ARE SOMETHING... THEY THINK THEY ARE PROFESSIONALS, BUT THE FACT OF THE MATTER THE RAHBANIS ARE JOKERS.

    MOI, excuse me. So what is you have spoken?

    Haifa and Ruby can sing live? what a nasty voice and taste. All they can do live is expose themselves and act stupid just for entertainment and attraction.
    Haifa has done every single plastic surgery possible to be the way she is now. Don't come saying that she is all natural, because she is not. It looks fake 100%. Her husband threw her away and he does not let her see her own daughter. Why do think?
    Ruby is a wannabe singer. But what the hell is all that about?? No looks. No voice. She needs to cover herself a little bit more having the body she does.
    Being honest now, when it comes to marriage, would men look at them? Men only look after them to entertain themselves. Not for any respect.

    They only wish to be in Carole Samaha's place, or to be like her. To have even worked with the Rahbani's.

    As for Nancy Ajram, she is very cute, coquette, elegant, friendly. Sh has a better voice than Haifa and Ruby together do. At least she does not expose herself as others. She acts with more respect. She is loved by many people for being young and talented. Just what she is.

    So, what is wrong with the Rahbani's? Do you have more knowledge or know more about music and theater than they do? I did not know that part. If you do, please let me know because I would like you to assist me with some lyrics.
    You were not even a thought when they started.

    Carol Smaha and Nancy Ajram are the best out of all of them. At least they have some modesty. As for Haifa and Ruby..... They have no life ahead of them. When they get old do u think anyone will like them then? They have no voice and they are completely fake. Once their looks are gone, they will have no life. Look at Fairouz, she is 90 and trying to act young. Everyone laughs at her, the same will happen to Haifa and Ruby. At least Nancy and Carol can ACTUALLY sing!

  1. marcella_lebanon | April 27, 2005 10:12 PM

    Corrections to some of the above posts:
    - Haifa is not in her late thirties, she is 30 or 31 and so is Carole Samaha.
    - Wahran: I think you meant Sabah not Feiruz, by saying that she is 90 and trying to act young.
    Sabah actually turned 80 and yes, she still acts young... Sometimes to a ridiculous extent but hey! She has a zest for life, that everybody looks to enjoy when they're that age.
    Feiruz is in her early seventies and only shows off on exclusive performances, keeping both her voice and her classy appeal.
    - Thank you Zaid, being Lebanese does not impede me from stating my opinions on a given singer objectively. And yes, people should make a difference between a woman that is beautiful, or pretty or sexy or attractive. Haifa is sexy and Nancy a cuty at best.. Calling her sexy or a gorgeous girl is an overstatement.

    sorry about the previous message. I was reading an article about fairouz and accidentally wrote her name in. but i was talking about sabah. And she is trying to act WAY too young, i'm not against trying to act young. but 60 years is a little over.

    ok guys,
    you alll need to chill out..moi we all understand you think haifa and ruby are hot and sexy,
    however they have no experience in singin they just like going on stage to show off and attractt men to them, they have done soo many plastic surgeries, its not even funny, have you ever saw what they actuall ylook like before all those make overs...they are big fackers with no respect
    in my opinion carol and nancy agram are naturly cute, with a good voice and they show alote more of respect then haifa and ruby,,
    they are models to lebanon and are loved but many fans...
