Arab 'Miss Universe' Dismisses Hijab Rumor
Arab News
BEIRUT, 25 May 2006 - Lebanese singer Haifa Wahbi was recently honored by the International Union in charge of the "Miss Lebanon" beauty pageant. Haifa was presented an award for her professional drive and extraordinary beauty.
Haifa was designated the "Most Well-known International Arab Star." Haifa was crowned by the Union as "Miss Beauty Queen of Arab Stars," or the "Miss Universe" of the Arab world.
Haifa's business manager has denied recent rumors about the singer's intent to adopt the hijab, or Islamic headdress for women. The release said the rumor was based on remarks the singer had allegedly made to the London based daily, Al-Quds Al-Arabi, although Haifa has not been interviewed by the newspaper in several months.
Haifa stressed that she holds great respect for the hijab, but has never insinuated that she plans on wearing one.
