By Kareem Sheta
“To every Egyptian who has been looking forward to seeing me perform in your beautiful dear country, you don’t know how much I would love to come visit & meet you all. It is a dream of mine as well. However, the event which was recently created to promote an upcoming concert at Cairo Opera house is, unfortunately, a RUMOR. I know you mean well, and I know that you did all that to show me your love & support. I have been reading all your messages. They really touched me. I promise you that I will perform in Egypt very soon when the right opportunity & time comes.”
These were the very words of renowned Lebanese artist, Hiba Tawaji, exactly two years ago when a fake rumor was spread on social media about a potential performance in Egypt by the beloved soprano singer. Well, fans there is no need to get discouraged any longer!
