Well personally I see the total oposite..her video was nt very bad. Its obviou that she tried to show a bit of acting in it..yes shes not the best actor biut at least you can see the effort she put in it. Plus she didn not show alot of cleavage which stresses on the point that she wasnt neked...get real u c more than that in any average Clip these dayz...lets not get so mean nw!!!

And I seriously think the song was good..check it out and u b the judge'

Her somehow called video clip about Iraq football team was much better and was really touchy than this video, i didnt feel her voice like she used too ... besides i think there was no need to show off her legs this way, it has no meaning with the clip ... may be if the video was shot on the beach showing her swiming ... its ok ... but this seen doesnt go with the song ... the song could have more success with a different video clip idea. .. this one is really poor ... thats my opinion :)!

ok the video might not be great but the songs quite cool, although must admit i like the second (iraqi) one more. but theyr both good they show her in different styles and theres nothing wrong with that. besides this is her first ever production, she has a very promising future ahead and im sure she'll be climbing to success fast. plus u cant blame her for such videos, afterall she doesnt chose the theme or the idea, its all down to the directors and producers.
Overall i say well done shada, a good start, and we look forward to more of ur work!

WOW .. u guyz are talkin bout her she is not showing n e thing compared to hayfa and them come on other singers are comin out in bikinnies and u guyz talk bout her she didnt even show nun ... her video clip is very gud u dont have to b so mean saiin that she dont look gud.. its her first video u shudnt judge her so rudly shes styll learning, and plus u guyz act like if its her fault that she wants to show skin, its not her choice its her manager that tells her what to do, and if she wants to succeed she has to listen to him

lol what a total double standard.
Haifa prances around half the time in less clothing then most arabic singers. in her video msh adra stanna she gets out of a pool with water dripping down her crotch, lace stockings, about to eat a cherry and her legs wide open sitting on the end of a bed in her bathing suit, and everyone praises her, saying how great her video is. Shatha isn't anywhere near that type of sexual type of clip .. she's not even showing any cleavage, and you loose your respect for her. WOW that's very pathetic, and very hypocritical!!

A video clip doesn't reflect the type of person she is. Its art ..nothing more, nothing less. Take it for what it is, and stop assuming women should dress or be a certain way!

Well.... lets see personally i have no respect for any lebanese singers at all and that includes all of them..this is because if you look at our music world today the worst singers not interms of their voice but their attitude on the tv screen are the lebanese female singers. I personally used to adore Elissa.. but hey women have some respect for your body even if ur a christian this is not how christian women act. As for that iraqi girl, well let me tell you something it will begin with mini skirts like she has started with and trust me by her next video clip it will be bakiniez. What those female singers don't understand is that they need to make their voices heard not sale their bodies. Its pathetic the way we are coping the west in everything, we should take whats good and leave whats bad. WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!!

* * * Hello Waleg & all,

Do you think that Shatha had a free choice of the clothes, make-up & the song?????
Dear Shathawi, unfortunatly that the way they make you start singing these days.
But it will come the day that you can say NO for all this . You'll choose your songs, you'll choose the dresses & who to work with.
You'll always has our love & respect for you "personally" deserved it . . Big time :)

Peace & all Good,

will i personaly like shatha but i was shocked when i saw her video clip. she have got thee talend which means that she does not need to show off or 2 wear mini skart. other words to look half niked. singers who use this way of acting as we all know they donot hav the stronge voice she have.
i really liked shatha and i want her to be aware about what she is doing during her singing jurney. she must know that this is not the right way for her to choose.
shathawe you desrve better then what you are doing so dont loose it. Dont loose it all for no obvues reason.

oh come on, give her a break! the video is fine and she's not revealing too much. she looks and sounds great in both video clips.
well done shatha!

LOL, why does she look like she's sitting in a toilet

As a fan of Shatha I didn't expect her to wear those clothes because but it's not her fault, it's Tony the director who chose her wardrobe since he's her manager and she has to follow his instructions. Finally good luck to sweet Shathawi :)

First, I dont think that the Video clip was a disappoint and OVER.. and she used to wear the same clothes when she was in the Academy and everyone liked her.. So even if the video clip and the idea asked for her to have Shatha used to wear the same type of clothes in the Academy.. And everyone used to like her!! And I dont think Shatha wants to loose her fans.. She assumes " that her fans are a bit MATURE and OPEN MINDED".

I see nothing wrong with that, come on, you open the CNN channel, and you see the NEWS presenter half naked wearing a mini skirt..

AND now, you think that was a disappointment.. WOW!! you guys.. Move On, Shatha is not even close of being Half Naked.. Its about time for some people to start searching for the other HALF of their BRAIN...

You see all the american videos and video clips on MTV and Melody and Mazzika and maybe on the Movie Channel, and you think Shatha is even close to what everyone around the world is doing and in the middle east is doing?!!

Thats not true.. Wake up People!!

thank you Zeid, very well said.

what do you see more than like wearing a short or mini-skirt?
Shatha is elegant & pretty whatever she wears.She is the symbol of elegance
I'm very disappointed in you Waleg...we don't need your respect....you are an old-fashioned who never wrote anything nice about Shatha
her perfume smells success already

i think that shatha's clip is amazing the song is very nice people just talk... come on ... do u want her to wear a veil? long skirt? turtule neck ?gloves ? to be appealing? GROW UP

If you check the star academy 4 category, you will find lots of posts about Shatha ... we liked Shatha thats why we posted this article about her new clip... its very true that there are tens of Arab singers out there who sing almost naked but the thing is not about being old fashioned or open minded or whatever ... its about Shatha herself, we thought we would see a new real singer in the Arab world who doesn't not depend on showing some flesh to get popular but instead depends on her voice like Majda Al Roumi, Julia Butros and many other singers ...

Oh Nada, Nada, Nada Shatha is neither pretty nor elegant!! SYMBOL OF ELEGANCE?!?!?!? Seriously duude what are you on??? thats all i have to say! LOl

We are NOT the only ones that got disappointed, check this article on elaph:

U re wright Waleg
Shaza for me is a BIG VOICE and a great STAR but she should more pay attention to her image, and articles like yours is good for her to know how she should choose directos of her clips in the futur, the image of the singer is very important! i didnt like the clip as i liked hana idrissi's clip. therr is a big difference between them, hana was intelligent to take time to choose the director and the producer..shaza should do the same and lbc should take care about her career more than this.

to Tia,

hi Tia long time not seeing ur great posts here :)

well may be the clip of shatha is a bit disappointing even to her fans, i am am member of her forum and there were many fans who were disappointed but after all this is her 1st clip and sure she will learn from it.

u said that shatha can not choose hte clothes and does not interfere in this stuff, well i can tell u no dear because baha, zizi, amany.. in their 1st clip did not wear short dress in their clips
walg was a bit harsh by saying 'u lost my respect" but i did get his point that shatha has a greaat voice so no need to wear such short dress. moreover we can not blame her too much because shatha used to wear these clothes in the academy
still her song is very nice full of emotions. good luck to her in her future clips 3o2bal marroosh w kamma7

she looks like shes sitting in the toilet?
she looks like a lil girl did pee in her pants... oh mummy i did pee dont hit me please i wont do it again lol

Well, her hair is kinda frowsy. Is that the problem?

* * * Thank You Bambusha for your beautiful greeting . . I always liked your posts too.
Unfortunatly I don't have time to check Waleg website as much as before. But if I see Shatha's name, I have to find the time!!!!!
Obviously Shatha Hassoun is my favorite star from all Star academy students . .
For me, my family, my friends & I'm sure for many millions of people she deserve all the respect, all our love & admiration for her beautiful voice & personality.
I miss Marwa too & hopefully we hear a special song for her.
Good Luck for them & for all the new students too :)

Peace & all Good,

that's why you let mohammed kammah win. he'd actually make a video clip that's worth watching, and worth my time.

well guys this video clip shows the true colours of so called singer shatha we know are more sure that she was a lucky girl when she won tha title.obviously shatha is just another lucky girl who won a title and came all over the news and oh my god she was also on cnn and bbc so doesnt that give us a hint HELLO GUYS WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE the title had been bouht for shatha i hardly doubt that shatha had all those fans and what more then mohameds and marwas fans sorry to say this guys i disrespect shatha from the day she entered the academy specialy she was the biggest trouble maker in the academy ofcourse after amal and we all know that so all i'm sayin is that that's the true shatha

NOT AN ARTIST
NOT A SINGER

JUST A PUNK THAT GOT LUCKY AND WON THE TITLE
woulda prefered it if Mohamed or Carlo or Marwa won the title

well it doesnt mean if shes an iraqi she needs to be pure good if u know what l mean l mean haifas a pure slut and everybody likes her l mean cum on pepo get a life!!!
