Myriam Fares Arab showbiz prima donna?

Myriam Fares is quickly cementing her reputation as the biggest prima donna in Arab showbusiness.

The Lebanese singer was in Dubai this week to be unveiled as a Wella Pro Series brand ambassador.

Rather than be enthusiastic about her appointment with the brand (after all, there’s no doubt she’s receiving a lot of money to promote the hair care range), her people told tabloid! she won’t speak to media “unless it was being filmed for TV or will be a magazine cover story”. So we’re sorry to report we can’t bring you her in-depth thoughts in humble newsprint — or online. You’ll have to contend yourselves with this picture of her with hair stylist Tony Al Mendelek. 

Sherihan fans, get excited: The Fawazeer queen could return to our screens in 2014.

Following her absence from the limelight since the early 1990s, the actress has revealed that she is considering starring in Dumua Cinderella, which is scheduled to be televised next Ramadan.

A source told tabloid!: “The script hasn’t been finished, but Sherihan really wants to do it if suitable. This would be a huge show if it happens.”
