Sherine Sayed Mohamed Abdel-Wahab (Arabic: شيرين سيد محمد عبد الوهاب; born October 8, 1980), known professionally by the mononym Sherine (Arabic: شيرين), is an Egyptian singer, actress, TV host and personality, and a former judge on MBC's The Voice: Ahla Sawt.[2]

Early life[]

She was born on October 8, 1980, in Cairo, Egypt. She was born into a middle-class family,[3] Her father is a decorator, and her mother, a housewife, and she has a brother and a sister.

As a child, Sherine's vocal talent was first discovered by her music teacher at school. At the age of nine, her teacher convinced her mother to take her to the Cairo Opera House[4] to meet Selim Sahab, an Egyptian classical music conductor. She sang in front of him, and he liked her voice a lot. From the age of nine to the age of 12, she sang as a choral member at the Cairo Opera House, then she was given a chance to perform as a solo singer and had tremendous success. She kept singing at the Cairo Opera House while looking for a music producer to start her professional career. At the age of 18, she was introduced to Nasr Mahrous, a prominent starmaker, director and music producer, he liked her voice and decided to collaborate with her through the company, Free Music, where she met with Tamer Hosny, then a new talent seeking an opportunity too. Nasr Mahrous decided to make her debut as a joint album for both Tamer Hosni and Sherine included two duet songs showcasing them together. The album was released in September 2002, by the title Free Mix3 - Tamer & Sherine and was a big hit all across the entire Middle East and North Africa. The album sold more than 20 million copies across the whole Middle East and North Africa.[5][6]

Cinema[]

Sherine starred opposite to Egypt's comedy star Ahmed Helmy in Mido Mashakel (Arabic: ميدو مشاكل). The 2003 film was directed by Mohamed El-Naggar. In June 2015 she starred in the Ramadan Egyptian series Taree'i (Arabic: طريقي; English: My Road), where she played a young lady[who?] who struggles to achieve her lifelong dream of becoming a famous singer, against social restriction, regulations and opposition from her family. The drama is written by Tamer Habib and directed by Mohamed Shaker.

Programmes[]

Sherine was a judge on the show The Voice Ahla Sawt until her replacement in 2017.[7][8]

In January 2017 she hosted her own talk-show, Sherry's Studio (Arabic: شيري ستوديو), on the Egyptian network, DMC.[citation needed]

In June 19, 2018 saw her and several celebrities and artists[who?] from around the world at the first ever concert in Saudi Arabia at King Abdullah Sports City in Jeddah, after the kingdom's new entertainment laws.[citation needed]

Personal life[]

Sherine married a second time on April 7, 2018 in Cairo, Egypt to Hossam Habib, an Egyptian pop singer. The wedding was attended by immediate family members, the managers and organizers of the couple, including Sherine's daughters from her previous marriage to Egyptian composer, Mohamed Moustafa.[9] Sherine and Hossam Habib divorced in 2021.[10]

Controversies[]

In 2017, a video recorded at a concert showed her responding to a song request by obviously joking that drinking from the Nile would give her schistosomiasis when she was asked to sing the song Mashrebtesh Men Nilha (Egyptian Arabic: ماشربتش من نيلها; English: You Didn't Drink From Its Nile) at a concert. The Egyptian Musicians Syndicate decided to suspend her right to perform in Egypt over her apparent "unjustified mockery of our dear Egypt" after viewing the video. Sherine later apologized for her "foolish joke" at the concert.[11][12]
