ALBAWABA - Rahma Riad breaks her silence surrounding Najwa Karam's alleged involvement in her exclusion from Arabs Got Talent.

Rahma Riad responded to the controversy over Najwa Karam's role in disqualifying her from the jury of Arabs Got Talent, which began its first live program on MBC last Wednesday, on ET Bil Arabi.

"Najwa Karam responded during a press conference, and I want to tell you today that I can't believe that something like this could come out of Mrs. Najwa," Rahma said to us. She went on to say, "I actually met her before, both at the airport and on the plane." 

Given her exceptional talent as an artist, I don't expect her to create anything comparable to this.

During a press conference for her concert in Syria, "Evening of the Roses of the House," Najwa revealed her decision to exclude Rahma Riyadh from the Arabs Got Talent judging panel. She said, "The decision in this regard is up to the production team, while her role is limited to rejecting or accepting her personal participation when it is offered to her." The show did not invite Rahma Riyadh to participate.

She concluded by saying, "I feel like I have become part of the program, and the program has become part of my successes and my life, especially since it has taught me more about my personal life than my artistic life."

She proceeded by saying, "I hope that there will be harmony between the members of the committee, because this is what distinguishes it, and God willing, we will continue in this manner."

It is important to note that Najwa will be participating in the program this year, along with Nasser Al-Qasabi, Bassem Youssef, and Ali Jaber, who has returned from his health issue and joined the judging panel.
