"I loved that documentary! It really showed how much Oum Kalthoum meant to the Egyptian people. My favorite parts were of people singing the melodies and explaining what the lyrics meant to them. To me, Oum Kalthoum is to the egyptians what Celia Cruz is to Cuba. The salsa queen touched the hearts of all ages and all nationalities in Latin America, just like Oum Kalthoum did for the Arab world. I have not met any hispanics not appreciating Celia Cruz and her music."
That 's really interesting. I had not heard that before. I love the children's opinion's of um Kulthum. I love that Celia has the love of her people the same way Um kulthum had from hers. Thanks for sharing that! |

This is a sad addition to this post. The actress, dancer, Zizi Mustapha has passed away suddenly from a heart attack at the young age of 63.
May she rest in peace and may her family find comfort and solace at this sad time. |
