Lebanon diva stands up to harasser on stage
The video begins with Karam, telling a man ‘money does not buy us nor does it buy you’
Lebanese singer Najwa Karam stirred jubilation among her fans as she stood up to a man who allegedly tried to harass her while performing on stage, as seen in a YouTube video that surfaced this week.
The video begins with Karam, telling a man “money does not buy us nor does it buy you.”
Karam, who is widely listened to throughout the Arab world, continues saying “and shame on you for what you are doing.”
She then briefly goes back to performing before she interrupts her song asking “isn’t there anyone who can push you back tonight?”
“In my life, I have never liked problems on stage…but you are being rude tonight,” she said as people in the crowd shouted “may God strengthen you Najwa!”
The video was shot during one of the diva’s concerts in Australia, Al Arabiya.Net reported.
