We all have heard about Nancy Ajram being on the Oprah Winfrey show, but what is the real story behind all the rumors?
Three weeks ago, a producer from the Oprah show contacted Nancy fans requesting Nancy's manager phone number. After discussing the show with two Nancy fans who are in charge of her official Facebook page, they decided to contact Jiji Lamara to inform him about the program. The show is about Fame Around The World, and will feature stars from various countries. The staff of The Oprah Winfrey Show picked four Arabic stars, Nancy Ajram, Amr Diab, Haifa Wehbe and Ragheb Alamah. The producers of the show wanted to show Nancy's fame around the world, and not how she influences the Arab countries.
The Real Deal About Nancy on Oprah
So, you are wondering now, what about the interview everyone is talking about?
There was NO interview in the first place because of the time limit of the show. They will feature more than 40 stars from around the world, they couldn't possibly fit in the time for Nancy to have an interview with Oprah, unless something in the program changes. But the producers of the show wanted to keep an open mind to possibly have an interview via Skype if anything is to change.
How did all of these rumors start?
After Jiji Lamara's interview with Amar magazine, the writer decided to twist his words and everything he said was interpreted differently by the Arab Media. Now it's time for an exclusive scoop for Waleg readers. The show was filmed yesterday (August 27th) and the program will air late September, as part of the new season of The Oprah Show.

i'll still stick by the previous comment i posted on the original version of this article:
WHY DIDN'T THEY INVITE TAMER HOSNY TOO?they couldn't just ignore his fame in the middle east nor his incredibly large fan base that covers more than one age group..something's a miss here..i mean his artistic and popularity levels definitely match that of the other four artists. in fact it probably even surpasses that of two or three artists on this list...
tsk tsk sad!
Why didnt they invite Elissa instead Haifa?
Haifa ll make shame to arab work in ths Show
ufff....elissa,haifa,nancy...they all are the same...
but i love Ragheb Alamah
I agree...WALEG maybe next time you guys should double check your sources, before you tell us.
Remember you guys are our source of whats going on in the Arab World without the politics, so we kinda count on you guys!! :)
Remember guys: ALWAYS check your sources.
Waleg did nothing wrong because their source was some-what a respectable source. The source was wrong all together, I wanted to clarify to what the real story is. And give Waleg readers the real 'scoop'.
About Tamer Hosny, they couldn't possible talk about Tamer & Amr Diab at the same time since they are classified in the same category.
Why is Elissa not on the show!! OMG !!
Thanks Majdn, and congrats Nancy from Elissians :)
Waiting for the show!
Haifa & Ragheb LOL ,they sing,don't they -_- ,i love how fans are woundering why are their stars not invited
even if there's no interview,it's still great they'll talk about Nancy ,and Amr ^_^ real stars
tanks mr.Majd ;) finally a trustable source
thanks Majdn for informing us
and even there's no interview , cant wait to watch it <3
Thanks Waleg, and Congrats to Nancy!! Can't wait for the show to be on tv, and thanks to those two special facebook members ;)
THANKS MAJDN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thats so cool, mabrook nancy i cant believe oprahs gonna make a story on nancy <3 u deserve it <3
this is a disgrace they should have chosen amr diab without any further thoughts
i dont know whats happening to this world
MAJDN thanx for the clarification. it was a little suspicious ,the first article.
anyways do you know what other artists were featured and from what countries?
*** [Some comments were deleted because the person were using several names pretending to be different persons!]
to michelle,
I actually was told the names of the people, I seriously forgot. But I do remember Aishwarya Rai is going to be on the show.
oh my gooooood .
what is this ..... ? where s Asala, najwa karam, majida romi, kadhem saher and allllll the others ?????
and you guys you r talking about nancy , Elissa & haifaa shame on you shame on you
Waleg..i really doubt that the show is going to be airing late september because I have satellite guide and i went ahead to this monday August 31,2009 and the shows description was "famous singers from around the world" so that is where the confusion starts for me. The Oprah Winfrey show was on break this week and from what I am seeing on commercials and goes back on air this coming Monday..only 2 days from now.
Allen, the news about "late September" came from the producers of the show. They told Nancy's manager that date. It might of been changed to August 31. But the official sources is telling us it will be on Late September.
HellO, i am Happy U.S Thank yOu Nancy Ajram i Love yOu So much and Thank yOu and Thank yOu Oprah , Thank yOu SO Much. love U.S
Haifa isnt going to be on the show. She was asked, but something happened and she decided not to be apart of it.
The episode was taped WEDNESDAY on the 26th.
To girl from Detroit,
I wish people stop patronising WALEG. Do the quarter of their daily job then come give them orders...
gud job 4 nancy and amr but i would rather see elissa and tamer hosny
Ragheb Alameh certainly and ya salam if they get Fadel Shaker
ah nancy,nancy....so many rumours are going around you...and you are sooo stupid to believe !....ah nancy,don't be upset,don't be sad....anyway you're a star
I was just wondering if anyone watched the Oprah show on August 31 about the famous singers from around the world because I saw it and neither Nancy nor any other Arabic singers were on the show. I don't know if it was supposed to come on that day or another day?
Nina,
I watched couple minutes of the show, they were talking about talent shows and did in fact show couple of seconds from Super Star & Star Academy (Lebanon)
Nothing interesting tho
Ok thanks for the info Majdn
I don't know about this,but Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachan are going to be on Oprah tomorrow,I can't wait! I'm their biggest arab fan! They rule!
She didn't really come there,lol, she was featured tough I saw it today.Indian stars Abhishek Bachan, and Aishwarya Rai and Nacho Figueras came today.They showed Nancy in the background tough saying she is an arab star and stuff,but that's it she didn't really come there I don't even think she can speak english,lol. She's never gonna actually come there and do an interview.
its a good chioce 4 of theme good i will like to add kazem elsaher ... but.. hey the best is NANCY.. THE RECORDS SHOW.. AND EVERY BODY KNOWS THAT .. WHEN SOMEONE TALKES BAD ABOUT NANCY.. THATS JELOUSAY.. (MENS BEGHAROO IN ARABIC)
