Egyptian singer Shireen Abdul Wahab is currently preparing to star in the new film "Zubeida Al Dakar". In the film, Shireen plays the role of a con artist who cheats people to steal their money.

The singer's character is a fierce one, in the sense that throughout the film her main victims are men as if she had a personal vendetta against them.

Very recently, Shireen got engaged to Libyan musician Ahmad Ghazali, making their life long commitment away from the spotlight.

Shireen initially denied her intimate relationship with Ahmad, stating that she and Ahmad were merely good friends.

On another note, problems between Shireen and her former producer Nasr Mahrous seem endless.

Disputes have arisen once again after Shireen decided to film her upcoming music video "Ala Bali" (On My Mind) with a Lebanese director instead of Mahrous. The contract between the two stipulates that Mahrous direct all video clips for the singer.
