I read an interview with Abdallah in Laha magazine... First about Super Star, he said that the 17 who arrived to the final stage are stars especially that some who deserve really the title are leaving.. He said that it is not having the title that lets you continue and he gave the example of Melhem Zein Who is today the most demanded in Lebanon and the arab world... About Diana's album, he thinks that she could have presented a better album but he said that she was a victim of the idea of presenting the album in a fast time after the program.. He said that Star Academy and Super Star cannot be compared.. If you want to listen to really good voices you have to see Super Star.. If you like theater and other arts you can see Star Academy... If Star Academy candidates presented to Super Star, he would have accepted only 2 out of the 16 and they are: Bachar and Ahmad.. Go Ahmad Go... He said that Bachar asked him to a work and he accepted.. And if Ahmad asked him to do so he will work with him of course coz Ahmad has a talent and he deserves to continue... This is the most important from the interview.. Did you like it?

Hey, you know, I checked Laha yesterday and I saw Abdallah's interview. I did not read it, but you made me motivated to go ahead and do so. Yay! I am so glad that Abdallah chose Ahmad and Bashar as the best 2. They were the best 2 out of Star Academy. And I totally agree with Star Academy vs. Superstar. Superstar = good voices Star Academy = theater, acting, and entertainment

i also read that abdullah alg3od said that 6 of super star c....hasnt been accepted in starac ..whyyy i guess that's pretty obvious .i can't imagain abdulra7man or Ammar in starac .(..i dunt like these2 ..) Well I know that Ammar was about to go to Star Academy, but he backed out. I think he said to Zaven in Sereh Wenfatehet that he thought the show did not really look like it acknowledged singing and music, but theater and the arts. About imagining if Abdel Rahman and Ammar were in Star Academy, I could agree with what you are saying, but then again, I don't think any of the Superstar candidates would fit with that type of genre. I mean when I look at the Superstar candidates, I feel that they are mature (although most of them are younger than the Star Academy candidates), and are well prepared in becoming a superstar. I have no idea why but the Star Academy students really did not seem to care if they were the star or not. You could see throughout every prime, the person who left, did not really cry or show much sadness in leaving. Maybe they thought that they already attained the fame they needed, as Star Academy encompasses all the candidates. Plus since it deals with 24/7 viewing, we know so much about the Star Academy students, that the first one who left, which is Nisrene, was so close to us still. Thus that is why EVERY candidate has fame and that is why they don't really mind if they do not get the title of STAR. But with Superstar, I feel that all are very mature, and that they really depend on this title. I feel really sad when I see good people leaving (like Hossam, Zahi, or Mustafa), because they might not get that chance to publish anything (but I really hope so), and I mean I do not like to say any names but there are many students in Star Academy who are able to publish a CD in no time because they were in the top 8, when they shouldn't, because they simply do not deserve it. I think that this has made me shift my attention completely from Star Academy to Supertar. I mean I really love Star Academy. Those one hour episodes truly made me laugh and feel really close to the students. But Superstar made me feel even better. I mean they have really great voices, and I never imagined how close the bond is. I think I said this but Star Academy has some good voices and good people, but the staff made me so MAD. I mean Rola totally faked everything. Her feeling were so hypocriticial. It just made me so mad. Also, the teachers except for Alissar and Betty, were not giving the right criticism. Mary Mafoud constantly said that each voice needs time - if this is the case, then why are they competiting for the title of the star. Wadih also kind of made me annoyed by saying that Sophia or Khalawy kept breathing hard; but many stars these days cannot sing either.

Did I say anything bad about Star Academy? I thought this was a forum, where you can write as much as you would like, and express your own ideas. If you think that I should get a life, then I am guessing that you should also if you cannot be so open-minded. I did not say anything bad about Star Academy; I just said that I maybe like Superstar a lot better. Note the letter, "I". I did not make it a fact, but simply an opinion. If you think that I write too much, then just ignore what I post, because it seems to be that the same amount of writing I post is equal to the signature pictures of the many members of this forum (which I personally do not have a problem with). What is with your grudge anyways? And if you think that Star Academy is better, why bother reading what is in the Superstar forum?

Oh Shooda, don't be angry.. You know that only who cannot admit the truth and the jealous are annoyed from what you write.. I must say that you write in a very interesting way and we should love what you write even if we do not agree with you.. But personally I agree most often with you ;D Okay, I want to say that I agree with you mostly except in one point.. Maybe the 16 of Star Academy were close to us, but the 17 of Super Star are the stars of the Future.. From Star Academy maybe 4 or 5 will continue but in Super Star the 17 deserve to continue and that's why Future decided to help them in their future song, it's like an encouragement for them to present themselves to the world of art coz they deserve all of them to continue.. Houssam, for example, must continue.. That's what Abdallah told him.,. I hope he will continue coz he deserves really more than others who deserve also.. I can't compare Houssam Chami or Yasmine Husseini the first who left in Super Star to M7ammad Attieh who won in Star Academy.. And I can't see Attieh an artist with many songs and Houssam for example won't continue.. That would be very bad.. I can't see Yasser or Amine or Soumaya with my respect to their fans our future stars... That would be bad for the world of art... I hope authors and musicians watch Super Star and know with whom they should work... It's obvious... I think it will be a little bit hard for Houssam and who left before him to continue but they can and I hope they WILL... Last year not all of Super Star candidates continued but some are working till now to start their career which I think very good... I remembered one of the best candidates last year Mer3i Serhan who had an excellent voice and ELias Rahbani said that he should have been the super star but who didn't do anything after Super Star... I think Houssam won't be better... That's very sad for these two and a lot of talented people other also..

who told u that i like star academy more than superstar? see now u r the one who is judging people!!! i said that these 2 programs cannot be compared!!! i might have been mistaken in the way i talked with u, may be because i was mad at that time, and if i was, i am sorry... but u forgot a point... u and shaa70 r talking about superstar contestants as the stars of the future, but didn't u notice that out of the 17, like more than half of them are not huwet???!!!!! man they r professionals!!!! which is not fair for the others!!! how can they accept them in the show?? i mean it is obvious that they only came for fame!!! like for example last year, wael mansour was like abdulrahman this year, where they both had never ever sang in front of anyone before or in public... i personally think that the star was supposed to be wael mansour who really proved himself and was very creative... hadi hussam brigette ranime ranine abir yasmine mustafa and i am not sure if i forgot someone, anyways, all these r not professional but have musical backgrounds, which is fair and good but the others, i don't think that it is fair for them to be in the program, don't u think so? so in summary u can't compare both programs, each has its different taste... star academy brought special moments like happiness and laughter into our lives for 4 whole months, while superstar is only about the voice in addition to the nice relationships between the contestants... i feel that superstar is more formal...

Hi our guest who's ignoring all of us and wants to talk only with Shooda Hehehe I'm joking... Okay, maybe you were mad so we were mad also.. But personally I'm with you the two programs cannot be compared easily but Super Star is too much better in my view.. People in it deserve.. Yes.. I was always with you in the idea how these people who sang before participate in such a program and I think Houssam Madaniyya is the one who practised more than all others... But did you ever hear of Houssam Madaniyya??? or Ayman for example? or Ammar?? No.. I didn't know that they exist before the program.. They did not have chances to prove themselves.. So Super Star is here for them to prove themselves.. Don't you think so?? Super Star is for the talent and they have the talent.. But in fact, I hoped one of the people you said their names will win.. First I hoped Houssam and now I hope Abir or anyone from the group especially Hadi and Brigitte even if I don't consider myself considered with the result that I know is ready from now!!! Okay, this is my view... Hope to see you talking with others than Shooda and discussing with us everything about the program.. You write interesting things ;D

Maybe the 16 of Star Academy were close to us, but the 17 of Super Star are the stars of the Future.. That's exactly what I meant, and I hope I was giving that meaning in my previous comment. You know it's pretty funny. I was so obsessed with Star Academy, and because I never watched an episode of Superstar, I think that is what thrived this obsession. I mean I wanted to watch Season One, but for some reason it never came on the satellite and I was not able to watch it. But back to what I was saying, even though Star Academy episodes lasted one hour each day, while Superstar had only 5 minutes every day with a one hour episode on Wednesdays, I still felt a lot closer with the 17 candidates than those of Star Academy. Though I watch so little of them, it seems that I know a whole lot about them, which is kind of cool I think. I would like to say that I have no idea how on earth some people made it to Star Academy. Yasser...his voice was pretty bad I have to admit, and how on earth could they have accepted him and actually let him sing in concert, when some of the other people who are becoming to be in the final 17 of Superstar cannot even get through. I think that is what makes Superstar my ultimate favorite show now; because I see so many voices turned down when the worst voices have now acclaimed fame. How sad! There were some good people from Superstar who left, and they probably won't have a chance in the future. About professionalism, I agree haa70, even though some of the candidates are professionals and have already studied, I feel that they should be in Superstar to show that talent. Who knows how people get to become famous singers? Superstar will be that chance for them. I will write more in a minute, but I have got to catch up on a favorite show of mine.

i am glad that u find my comments interesting ;D thanx!! and i would like to add that even simon assmar himself admitted that in star academy there r not that good voices, bass star academy is not only about the voice... it is about all the talents combined together. in super star they sing every sunday and people will judge on that and vote for the best (thats if we still believe that there is something called voting aslan). where as in star academy the teachers evaluate the students and choose the nomination, while the primes were to show the talents of these students... i mean i don't think that the beautiful primes of star acadmey can be done in super star... i mean come on imagine melhem acting!!! lol!!! or so3oud!! wael may be i can imagine him!!! and as for the point of professionalism i still think that it is unfair for such contestabts to be accepted because they r taking the chance of the real huwet like hussam hadi brigette mustafa yasmine abir, etc... bas in the end we cannot deny that the voices of the star academy students became WAY better in the end than in the beginning!! oh my God!! did u hear them in the beginning!!! lol!!! yalla take care...

Hey I am back. Okay, back to what I was saying: yeah, I heard in Sereh Wenfatehet that Hossam Madeneya was almost about to produce something big, but I do not know about the details. But even if they are professionals, I think it is good, because there are some current singers out there who cannot sing, and now it is our chance to make a difference and show who we want to win and be a great singer out there - although I am not sure with the cheating part that is out there. haa70, you mentioned something about Ateya and how you could not compare him even to the last few people who left Superstar. Frankly, I agree with you. I for one did not want Ateya to win. I really wanted Bashar to win. I think people valued a lot more of the acting part than the singing part, and Bashar has a really good voice as Abdallah put it. And what made me really annoyed was that Ateya was still singing someone else's song when he went to Miss Lebanon's prime. I was not excited at all. After being a star, he should have made at least one song. And then I also heard that Sophia is making a CD, which also made me annoyed because she is making French songs, something most Arabs might not buy because plainly they do not understand the language. I mean I really think Sophia is good, but more Arabic is needed. Know if we really wanted someone to hear a CD from, it would be Ahmad, because Ahmad so ruled. He had the perfect voice - no problems whatsoever. Haa70, he was seriously as you said the best. Even his personality rocked. I have to apologize now to our guest. I am really sorry if I sounded too mean. I was kind of annoyed at the fact that you misinterpreted what I was saying, and not to mention criticizing the mass amount of writing posted. I really like Star Academy, and for your information, to show my obsession, I want to share that I recorded every single episode including their primes, totaling 27 VHS tapes. I think that is too obsessive, and I hope it shows that I like Star Academy so much. If I did not like them, I would have either broken the tapes, or just recorded over them. But no, I still keep them, because I remember them as a great reality TV show. Because I like Superstar a whole lot more, does not mean I don't like Star Academy anymore. Just wanted to make myself clear. And thank you for saying what really hit the spot about Superstar: formal. That was the word I was looking for. I also have to agree with haa70; you do write interesting posts. Feel free to post your ideas.
haa70, hey, thanks so much for supporting me. That was really nice of you. You are a wonderful person and a great friend. By the way, what an awesome signature picture of Hossam. I love it.
