TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF

I’m Egyptian, born in Saudi Arabia. I’m a singer, a song writer, a fashion model, a belly dancer, an entrepreneur. I own 2 pizza restaurants in Egypt, a fashion line in Nigeria with 2 brands, one designer brand that I design myself called Randivie & the 2nd one is a retail branch called Berry Aura.

HOW DID YOU DISCOVER YOUR CRAFT?

I turn everything I love doing to my work. I simply followed what I desire since I’m young & that’s how I knew which path to follow. I’m born to be a star.

TELL US ABOUT YOUR EXPERIENCE AS A DANCER?

Initially I’m a singer, singers dance on stage & so I added belly dancing to my career, it’s fun, sexy, challenging from all angles & I love challenges.

A MEMORABLE EVENT FOR YOU AS A CREATIVE?

New year 2022 in Lagos, Nigeria, in Spice Route. I sang there, celebrated the countdown then I belly danced. Seeing the audience reaction was really a sweet joy.

YOUR CHALLENGES AS A CREATIVE?

I’m a very strong person so I won’t mention negative people talk that may destroy a weak or a fragile person. My only challenge is working on myself constantly even though I’m a very busy person, trying to combine my artist life & my entrepreneur life. It’s very difficult but I’m working on it always.

HOW DO YOU FEEL YOUR SOCIETY AFFECTS YOUR INDUSTRY?

Society has positive talk & negative talk. I turn negative talk to funny, cheerful & make it positive. For my business I turn customers from angry to happy customers with being generous.

IS THERE A GOOD SUPPORT ATMOSPHERE BETWEEN DANCERS?

I fly solo, I don’t socialize with other dancers as my parties are a one woman show.

MOST CLICHE THING YOU’VE COME ACROSS IN YOUR FIELD?

Arab society opinion about Belly Dancers. But do I care for anyone’s opinion? I do what I want & I don’t care about who says what. If u don’t like me, don’t watch. If you judge me, keep judging, words don’t stick to you.
