Egyptian singer Shireen Abd Al Wahab is facing a fierce campaign by Algerians after she allegedly refused to sing in Algeria due to her anger over the incident that occurred between the Egyptians and the Algerians during the game a prelude to the last World Cup stadium in Sudan last year.

Suddenly, the Algerian press
launched pages on social networking sites calling to boycott Shireen. Articles in the Algerian press accused Shireen  of being a materialistic singer after the money, and also stated that she was involved in a prostitution lawsuit. Papers added that Shireen is known to be the singer of pot.

Shireen’s husband was also accused of benefiting from his wife by having her agree to hold concerts while she is pregnant without being embarrassed just to make extra money.

 

Recently, rumors had it that Shireen had demanded a sum of 90 thousand dollars and a private jet in order to hold a concert in Algeria. It was said that Shireen placed those conditions due to the fact that she does not wish to sing in Algeria and knew the concert agents would not agree to her conditions. After the rumors were circulated, Shireen had publicly denied such allegations and stated she welcomes the idea of singing in Algeria and all that was said on her behalf is not true.
