Since the last prime of LBC Star Academy, I have felt like there’s something missing in my life! With each passing day, I miss the students more … especially on Fridays when I have nowhere to go & I just stare at the TV screen!
I sit there and think, what will the students sing today? Who is the Top 1? Who is Friend of the Week? I wonder will there be any surprise tonight?
But I realize that it is over …
LBC Star Academy Was Part of My Life
I still remember the dailies & the time I used to spend in front of the 24/24 channel … Osama was the best! He is so funny & gets it on the spot!
How silly of me! Sometimes I wish Star Academy would never end!
Would you believe that during the final prime, I cried my eyes out like a fool! But I have to be honest with you; I’m not ashamed of those tears & those feelings, because I truly believe there are lots of people who have felt just the way I did!
So, I would like to know, Was Star Academy a part of your life like it was to me? I hope you share your stories.
By guest writer Zainab
yeahh dont worry...i miss staracademy so muchhhh...i usedto spend all my time watching it and now i feel like theres nothing to do without it....i love it so muchhh and i also wish it could last forever lol
Goodness, I thought I was the only one!
This was my first time that I had watched Star Academy, and I had watched it from the very start to the very end. And I never knew how addictive it was. I simply fell in love with it.
Zeinab you mentioned that you cried when you watched the final. Lol, I did the night before wallahi. I sat infront of the interent and watched all the reportages and some of my favourites moments of Star Acaedmy on Dailymotion. The tissue box was sitting right next to me. I felt like I knew them all, one by one. Loved them.
That was the night before. The actual night when watching the final I was so happy and excited. And even more when Shaza won the title, I was simply static for her. But then a few minutes later, I felt a little sad and empty. That was it, it was all over.
There is no show out there right now that can replace it. It was simply great, and the students were also great. A pleasure they were to watch. Will be waiting for Star Academy 5.
No...... i didnt, at least not this year!!! i liked staracadmey 1 and 3 the best.... i really didnt watch this year...
OH MY GOD! I COMPLETELY FEEL YOU!!!! i've been depressed since it's been over, i miss the students soooo much, i miss wondering what sally's gonna do today, or wat song amma7 made up today, or what hysterical comment carlo was gonna make, how tina and amma7 felt for eachother, did sally and imad fall in love, it's crazy! it turned into a lifestyle and obsession for me, but only season 4 for some reason! i'm so obsessed that i taped all of the dailies and i watch my favorites every night...at work, i'm on youtube ALL DAY LONG! lol, maybe i'm really sick lol, but i felt like the students were my family and my best friends. i'm so lost without them :(
It was so much a part of my life that after friends keep telling me that i had a good voice i thought i would apply next yr! Except when i mentioned it to my parents they exploded as if I just told them i was thinking of dropping out of skwl (which i was kinda but thts besided the point lol) I used to not go out on Fridays (although it was the only day i cud go out) so as to not miss the primes and all my friendz knew not to call me at 8-9 because it was when the dailies was on! and now that its ova i cnt stop myslef but to come on Waleg and check out all Starac's news and then visitng fan sites its insane! anywayz thanks for sharing your story Zainab alot of people now knw they are not alone!
Let me start by saying that I had to sleep in the living room in order to be following the24/24 channel . I used to follow only the primes and the evaluations in previous seasons but this year I just couldn't resist watching these wonderfully talented and extremely cute students every single moment .
At first my parents were complaining that they couldn't watch anything else but they ended up being even more attached to the program than me.
Each candidate this year had his own style his own irreplacable presence .
The only boring part was the Amal-Ahmed forced romance.
I loved all the students but I must admit kammah had a special place in my heart , as someone previously said he was bringing an air of joy whenever he was there.
Now you can watch star academy maghreb!
yes .. i feel exactly the same way .. it is like that u were in my mind and heart .. and me also i'm not shame of this feelings .. i miss star acamedy very much .. i miss wadieh very very much .. thank u for ur words .. // Ebtihag
me tooo. everyday i watch videos of star academy to take away that sorrowful moment. i miss it soooo much. i miss dany, carlo, tina, shatha, amal, imane, imed, marwa, intissar, sally, mohammed, maisoon, azzuz, nelly, khaled, ali, ayoub, shorooq, and ahmed. I MISS ALL OF THEM. what am i going to do without star academy 4. is there a place where i can watch videos of them in their house. i know you tube, but there aren't alot when they are in their house. please tell me.
akhh i miss that show soo much it was fun really this is the first time i watch star academy from the begining to the end usually starac 1 2 3 i'd watch the first half wo khalas or at the end bas starac4 all of it.. you guys i hope star academy5 will be just as nice yareet they can put star academy 5 ba3ad 2weeks waw that would be fun now wouldnt it.. imagine we have 9months to wait oh no!! i dont think i can wait that long we should talk to rola about it lool. oh well take care all!!!
Yeah..really it's a shame that it had to end.
it's by far the best season of all .
Surely everyone had his favourite student but all in all they made a nice group .
Now I'm living on the memories I've downloaded a couple of photos and some extracts of kammah's songs I guess they'll do the job for the moment.
Damn, some people have no life's what so ever.
A sisterly advice, get a hobby or get out more!!
oh my god u wlii not belive how the program was part of me & all my famiely now our home like a house of goahsts after the program had end 2 weeks ago we dont do nothing wedont go any where ae got nothing to say or to think about
& about your tears its not only u iam craying while watshing this show for the 4 season & i cant control my self it became a part of my life that i cant leave without it
Yes, Star Academy 4 was a part of my life as well as my cousins. We absolutely loved it! My VCR doesnt work so i cant tape the primes or dailes but my cousin used to tape the prime every friday and after watching it live at my house i would go to her house after she got out of work to watch it AGAIN!..ALSO, i never missed the dailies. It came on at 12 in the afternoon here and 7 at night so I had two chances to see it each day. I really loved this show and when I was watching it I didnt really think about how it was going to send soo soon. The time went so fast. But as i said in another article, I will start watching Miss Lebanon 2007 but im sure it wont compare to star academy 4 but it will give me something to do!
and to kelmahelwa no offense to you but we do have lives..taking 1 hour a day to watch a show is not bad and u can always go out afterwards on friday.. im sure theres a show that u watch everyday or something u like to do everyday
ahhhhhhhhhh all 4 month i just watched staracademy nothing else!!!!
i really miss it
miss marwa and ahmad....miss everyone
but there is nothing to do...that`s life :(

Zeinab,
I feel the same, something is missing. I miss Star Academy so much, I wish it was always on. The day of the final I cried as well. I didn't feel ashamed though, because you get used to them after seeing them everyday, it's as though you knew them personally. I got attached to the show and to the contestants. I miss it so much.
My dear, imagine i suffered these feelings 4 times uptill now. Believe me we are so linked to this program because it makes us reveal all our feelings whether sad or happy, it makes us forget our problems. The toppic i wish to discuss is what staracademy gave for any of us. I myself admit that staracademy helped me coming over my father's death last year and being alone at home at night since my mother has died long time ago and my only brother is working at night. The show made me feel i m not alone and i m surounded by such nice guys(students) living with me. A admit i m not a teenager but i do like the show cause it helped me. Did u realize Zainab it meant 4 me much more than a TV program. Did u realize also that the show attracted audience from all over the world?
For all the fans i love u all and wish i could know u much better.
yeah starac4 was part of my life till 10prime after alimanation of ayoob i dont like starac4 i miss u ayoob so much i wish i could see ayoob live in person
there are viedo's of the star's at home? PLEASE SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT WEBSITE'S SHOW THESE VIEDO'S!!!
Wallah I felt the da same, fnx goddness I am nt da only person, for da 1st time I watched Star Academy for the whole season, since da start. The pervious 1z I use to watch them near 2 da end
I fink dis season was da most succesful on 1 from the last 3
me 2 i creid so mucch bgd i want them back on tv c u soon sally tina marwa mohammed carlo 3med
hahaha, I gotta say it may sound pathetic but I am the exact same way. It's just the effect it has. It's something to look forward too.
Every night for 4 months there is starac.
I love every year. Every year has it's own advantage.
I don't buy into the "year 1 was the best" crap.
They all have something unique to them,
(even 2 which I loved).
Now that there is no starac I(living in America)feel like my connection to the arab world is severed. I've lived in the US my whole life but starac gives me a connection lol to arab youth from all parts of the middle east. I even get to chat with arabs here on Waleg.
Anyways thank god for starac 5.
yes i miss star ac a lot they must continue the happiness by miss lebanon ya alah they made a lot of people sad and lonely
once agian i ask you fellow fans which websites show the star's back at home? I really want to see marwa back home!
First of all thank you Waleg for posting my article and thank you for correcting some of my mistakes in that special piece d:
I'm very much excited today d:
I'm glad that you all shared your stories about how star academy meant to you all other than insulting eachother in very topic ;)sorry to mention that d:
Star academy really meant a lot to all of us
Who were sad
Who had no friends
Who were bored
And a lot more
East or West
Star academy is the best d:
You are welcome Zainab :)
Thank you for sharing these feelings with us and hope to hear from you again.
yeah i do feel that way zainab....dnt worry ur not the only one!!!!!! im soooooo bored these dayz with out staracademy 4.........i wish i could see just one more time...............i really miss the students alot!!!!!
come on guys move on , don't be pathetic, get a life....
life is borin without staracademy..borin..borin..any one went 2 massari concert in lebanon??
Amen Girl! I thought i was the only one. i miss them like hell but every year it just isn't the same. I still miss Star Academy 1,2,3 as well as 4. Every season i feel like im betraying the season before :(
And every year i say i'm not going to like this season the last ones were the best and i was always end up watching and liking. My friends make sooooo much fun of me. At least now i can retaliate...
dear zaineb i am so glad that u are like me obsessed in a good way with these candidates that have won our heart although theyre gone now they wil still to the end of our life trust me in our heart and theyre welcome me really more then u i was careless also of my exams and stuff like that in order to live with them in a perfect way marie christine from lebanon be strong
ZAINEB GOOD JOB U SAID MY HEART'S THOUGHT I DID CRIED ALOTTTTTTTTTTTTT IN 3YEARS OF STAR ACADEMY CAZ I THOUGHT NO BODY FELT LIKE ME BUT I WAS WROUNG U ALL FELT THAT TOO. MISSING STAR ACADEMY
i also m iss star academey a lot this year. i miss all the primes, the students, the dailies, the evaluations, everythingggggggg. i would watch miss lebanon but i know it won't be fun as star academey, time passed so fast, 4 months, i enjoyed it a lot
well zainab i totally agree with u, but in everyyear i get disappointed becoz the one that i support doesnt win specialy this year coz i was with my shiny star Marwa and she made it to the finals without any nomination but she came second, i wanted her to win:S...and in starac.3 i was obsessed with someone called Reem Ghazali, i loved her from my heart, but rola saad cheated and kicked her out and the people who commented here on waleg abt staracdemy 3 know how much i ove this girl and some of u may have read my aggressive comments abt reem being kicked out by cheating coz her percentage was more then 70%. And in Starac.2 i was with Salma Ghazali (reem's sister) but unfortunately she left so after her departure i supported Amany but she lost in the finals although her percentage was very close to Hisham's percentage, and in starac.1 i was with Bahaa but she left in the semi finals. So i am not lucky in staracademy but still is was and it will always be a very huge part in my life and actualy my dream is to enter starac. but sure wn i get older coz am still 14 (13 and 8 months) :P.
Although in Mission Fashion (Last year) i supported Reem al Saidi (in the models group) and she won :D:D, and in miss lebanon 2005 i was with Gabriel Bou Rached and she won and in Alwadi i supported Farah Ben Rajab and she was saved for around 3 times when nominated but eventually she left against Fatima from Bahrain.
This may be weird but i will mention all my hereos who attented Huge and Important Reality TV Shows: Marwa Ben Sghaier (Tunisia), Reem Ghazali (Algeria), Salma Ghazali(Algeria), Bahaa al Kafi (Tunisia), Reem Al Saidi (Winner of Models Section in Mission Fashion) btw i was with Sulafa in the Designers Section, Gabrielle Bou Rached (Winner of Miss Lebanon 2005), and Farah Ben Rajab from Alwadi (Tunisia)...
I supported these People equally and they are all in my heart. I hope that for once my favorite Candidate in Starac. wins, once, only once:S:S Maybe in Starac.5
Btw, i am waiting now for the Murex D'Or 2006 (which is soon), for information how to vote on the internet for the nominees for this awards, add me on my email : shadshoud987@hotmail.com and for more information abt the Murex D'Or also add me on my email and i'll tell you.
Take Care!
Shadi, Lebanon

Shadi
You are quiet a character...very impressive...even your disappointment is impressive loool.
I will support you all the way the minute you decide to enter Starac...just get ready... we get your back. ;)
yess yesss i miss star academy espically this season.. it was soo interseting.. and luved watching marwa and ahmadd.. interseting to watch themm.( knew their was sometinh up with thosse 2) use to wait for the daily access every day and for the prime every friday... noww i have nothing to watch.. and i cant get any updats on the students suckkkkkkksssss
Shadi,
I have to agree with Tunisian [ Hey! :) ], you do have quite a character, masha'allah. To be honest, I would not have the gutts to put up my address to anyone who would be interested in becoming my friend; Only under one condition, that I get to know them a little on this website.
If you will try out for Star Academy, I would love to wish you all the best. Just keep us, and Waleg, noted with how things are going. Inaha'allah all the best :)
And about last year's Mission Fashion, the designers that I liked were Soulafa Falflan and Dania Khan. As for the models, I liked Karen Al Khazen (Lebanon), kily Houjami (Algeria), and for some reason, Rym Al Saiidi. I never knew why but when I found out that she was from Tunisia, then that explained a lot. I have a soft spot for Tunisians, which was why I liked Imed and Marwa from Star Academy this year, and the previous year, Chayma and Wajdi.
This year's Star Academy was definitely the turn of a girl to win the title. If it wasn't Shaza, then it would have been Marwa. But let's not forget, that you don't need to win the title to be a star. You just need the talent, and that is something that all the finalists had, which was the reason why they all deserved to make it to the finals. No matter what happened, they all came out as True Stars.
Look at all the previous years who didn't win the title, especailly in the case of Amani; they are all doing their thing. Some have gone down the path of singing, others acting. They are all successful. So I'm sure we will see the same happen to this year's students.
Yalla, oulo ma3aya "Insha'allah".
Anyways, best of luck.
Take Care :)
Ohhhhh! I forgot to ask:
What is Murex D'Or?
yea of course i missed it but in australia they dont put the 24/24 chanel but guess wat peopl's i am still watchin it coz i recorded every daily.
