Star Academy Tunis Concert


Students in the the main avenue of the Capital Tunis

Back from Sfax, the students went to the hotel “The Palace” in Grammarth (a tourist resort in Tunis, just close to Carthage) to take some rest. The day after, they went for a tour in the main avenue of the Capital Tunis.

Normally, the city center is quiet on Sundays however it turned to be a hilarious Carnival. The students were riding horse carts & were really happy to meet thousands of fans standing on both sides of the avenue together with musical bands making the atmosphere more cheerful.

Starac Students on the Tunisian national TV

The students were also guests in “Sunday Cocktail” on the Tunisian national TV.
Meanwhile, in El Menzah area crowds of people were heading towards the Cupola (where the 2nd Concert will take place). People of all ages (from kids to youth to old people) were hurrying inside the Cupola to get better places & to be as close as possible to the stage...

2 hours passed before the starting the show, there was no place even for a three-year kid. For your information the Cupola capacity is 7 thousands but the audience exceeded that number by far.

The atmosphere was hilarious with the audience shouting the names of their stars & singing their songs and it got crazier when the stars appeared on stage... you have the impression that the whole cupola was going to explode with screams & applause. The students started with “laissez moi danser” & then the song “Jar Erridha”.

Joseph: before starting he talked to the audience with a pure Tunisian dialect & made the audience crazy. He was the 1st one to sing with “Waynek”, he also sang in the Tableaux “Pirate” & “The Sea” & with Hani & Khalifa a medley of Wael Kfouri songs. Audiences madness came to its pick when he sang “Tanoora”. He was wonderful in every song & proved to be so professional.

Hanaa: started by Fayrouz’s song “Habaytek Be Saif”, “Enta Eeeh” & “ya Habibi Ta3ala”. She seemed intimidated & her voice was trembling a little a bit, but soon she took things in hand & sang beautifully. She was applauded by the audience. She was fresh like a rose & so beautiful & radiant.

Fadi: sang with Wajdi & Maya a cocktail of rock songs & A. Sherif song “Sahran m3ak”, & in the “Pirate” Tableau. Girls were crazy of him. Fortunately, the big number of security circling the stage saved him from being kidnapped by his crazy fans.

Shayma: Like Hanaa, was so impressed by the audience & her voice trembled, then she regained her self-control and was wonderful in the songs she sang. “Yoom Leek”, “Pirates” Tableau & the Group song “ Sahar Elayali”. She lost weight & was very beautiful.

Hani: He was great, impressive & won all the audience hearts, all loved him. He sang “Habibi Yalli Nasseeni" & with Joseph & Khalifa a medley of Wael Kfoury songs.

Wajdi: overexcited but sang beautifully “Aicha”, “Femme like you” & the medley of rock songs with Fadi & Maya. Every time he appeared on the stage, the fans didn’t stop shouting his name.

Khalifa: sang in very nice way & was really liked by the Tunisian audience for his spontaneity, sense of humour & his “Kaf 3a Wayhek”. He was the dynamo of the concert & gave the guards hard time chasing him & preventing him from going close to the fans.

Rakya was so cool, has a very nice voice & “wal3etha” with dancing.

Maya: I’m not gonna comment about her voice but she was so beautiful & impressive in her dances. She is the most liked by Tunisian boys.

Last Comments:

I’ve never imagined that Joseph is so popular in Tunisia till the day I attended the Concert. Now I can understand the great percentage of votes he got at the final. Anyway, he deserves the title & Tunisian’s love. He is simply wonderful.

Hani seems to become the new idol for Tunisians

The audience sang with students from the first song to the last one.

All the students were so happy, stunned, overexcited & couldn’t believe themselves.

At the end of the concert, the security's task became harder because apart from running after Khalifa, there were also Joseph & Fadi trying to touch their fans.

The concert was breathtaking & will remain, forever, memorable for both the students & the audience.

    Bravo Gazelle for such a wonderful summary. And thank you so much for trying to be neutral, I know that you are not Joe Fan but you wrote the truth. I am very glad to know that Joe is loved by all ages of Tunisian may be morethan anyone could imagined. Thankyou Tunisia for the great respect you gave to all the stars. Gazelle if there is any news please keep on posting, thank you thankyou

    This message is for Moroccans & all Hanaa's fans:

    I've read in many sites (especially Hanaa's fans sites) that the Tunisians did not welcome Hanaa warmly & that the concerts audiences whistled at her.

    I swear by God that it's wrong 100%. The audience applauded for Hanaa & sang with her. Maybe they were not as hilarious as they were with Joseph, Hani, Shayma & Wajdi.

    Another thing, when the Tunisian audience sing with a star, it means that they like him/her and that they like his or her performance and this is what happened with Hanaa.

    As I said she was a little bit shy & intimidated by the huge & hilarious audience but then she regained her self-control & sang as beautifully as she used to do.

    Also, in group songs Shayma kissed her many times & showed the whole audience the nice friendship uniting all Star Ac3 students.

    At the end of her performance, she was applauded thunderously. She thanked the audience & said "Nhebkom bezzaf bezzaf".

    Hope things are clear now for you.

    To Gazelle:
    Darling, do not swear by god to convince Hana's fan that she was welcomed by tunisian fans! It is not worth doing dear!
    who r they to swear by god that their girl Hana was welcomed.
    All the stars were welcomed by the audience and full stop!
