  • @OmorfiKoukla13 There are different variations of belly dancing. In other countries, such as Lebanon and Turkey, you can wear high heels. I think, in Egypt, they also do that, too. It becomes a fashion statement, anyway. You can do it barefoot, you can do it in high heels, whatever it feels comfortable.

  • shes great but the cameraman could have done much better

  • LEBANESE PRIDE AND TRADITION

  • just wow

  • i really wish she would've moved around the stage more.... and some of the moves and spins she did [while they might look pretty] didn't really seem to fit in with everything else..... and while i can deal with the shoes.. i think flats probably would've looked nicer.. but she can definitely move =]

  • fantastic !

  • It just looks a little more presentable in shoes ,doesn't have to be heels, girls just like to wear them to feel sexy , it can be flats or anything you want.It's not a so called style, just doesn't look good performing in front of an audience barefoot .Lebanese dancers perform at dinners ,restaurants, special occasions or just big crowds,need to look classy or smt like that.Most of the dancers in bdss are doing it,as you would notice cleanness in appearance is everything to them. :)

  • @didem92 there is different types of belyy dances and shakira can belly dance smt show to go how much u knows their diff types as ashaar told u

  • It'd look better if she was barefoot... or at least had flat shoes.

    But still, awesome. : D

  • awesome

  • i think this is Dina Jamal.

  • @nne05 It isnt Dina Jamal although their is a resemblence

  • beautiful dance.

  • i love her

  • No thank you for asking such an enquiering questions with an interest. Just remeber always go behind the face value when it come to a very importent question or matter comes your way. Learn and read plantyof book on true knowledge. Salaam and take care.

  • savygypsy feel free to ask any question if and whenever you want to know. i will be more than accomodating. OKAY?

  • No it does not matter if one is from lower or a higher class. Class system does not exists in islam. but ppl have made differances to makethemselves feel good about themselves. everyone is equall and only you can be judged based on how clean life you have lead. only Allah O Subhanah can tell this no human can tell this. But on the face value one can tell if it is a arong or wright just by anylising and see for itself.

  • savygypsy look being a muslim means you have reached the hights of all the best in life. temtations always seem tentful and lushes. temptations are made easier by the evil. Lots of muslim sister in many cultuers are being exploited on the name of art and craft. Just listen to good ppl and read islamic history to see how we have achieve this magnificent islam.

  • No it is not just the matter of being ashemd. it is a matter of not following a god's order. Let me give you an example; if I wer to ask you to speak only in morning and not in night for a whole month and you agree. later on you follow agreement for couple of days and then you break agreement and start speacking at night. I ask you to not to do coz you made promise to me. you tell me on my face ok i wont speak from now. and you speak again. this is some of us muslims are doing with our lord.

  • huh? thats a terrible analogy

  • you are absulutly right. You see many cultuers came to become muslims but they did not letf their old ways of lifestyles and carried on with whatever they were doing before the islam. Islam teaches a simple way of life. it says keep it simple and respectful. of course it is shame for those parents who allow their doughters do this so they can make money and name.

  • did you heard a song; some of us like to be used and some of us like to be abused and the vis a versa. women are not made to do this. just like my mother is a woman and my father could not mother me. natuarl course. women are not made to dance.

  • well half of russia is assian and half of it is in europe. you see when you see women doing this kind of things; then there is no stop no where and it leads to a last distanation and that is letting men to use and abuse and so then women become the user and abuser.

  • yes Muslims haritage is rich, old and somewhat complete, unlike the western civilisation Muslim civilisation is much older, proper, true, complete, original and difining. Islamic history and cultuer has its own markings on whole of humanaty.

  • By the way I have removed my comment coz you told me she is russian. But one thing she dont look russian???Labanies dewell in these king of activities and as Muslims we should refraine and refraine from exploiting our women on the name of art and craft. But if she is russian or none muslim i dont mind.thank you for clearing this up for me.

  • I am a Pakistani from Pakistan. Pakistan is also a Muslim country like lebnan and saudia and Iraq and so on.

  • SALAM is a greeting and bye in Arabic language of an Islamic world. So when someone says salaam to you it means they are saying peace be upon you. Romania is wonderful country and inshallah it will get better. Romania produced many fine gems like Nadia Kamanci in gymnastics.

  • OK THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME KNOW. SALAM

  • WAUWIE!!!

  • Comment removed

  • shut the hell up..ignorant redneck.

  • Why you want me to shut the hell up for?????? Brother/Sister listen to BrassTacks>>>>> Khilafat e Rashida. if you donot understand ask me and I will explaine you. The only difference between Muslim and non Muslim is how we lead our lives and how our Muslim women lead their lives. please donot be offended and be a proper Muslim not a joke on the name of Islam. WSALAM

  • no, is not pamela from romania, plus pamela is not a profesionist, lool

  • That's the real belly dance !!

  • her name is pamela and is from romania

  • I agree

  • the music is great....

  • Brilliant!!!!

  • ahh whenever I see or hear something like that i long for the time back when I visit beirut. Walkin down the boulevard, seeing the ocean, drinking strongest coffee ever and smoking waterpipe. Then...the mountain behind the city...best sunset ever... Lovely people, helpfull. The men made sure they are heard in their cars for the girls though...everytime they saw a blond girl...they had to push their horn....hahaha....best time ever...

  • lovely dancing! but i think i'd also prefer bare feet...and less exposed leg. but great energy and rhythm!

  • I think her butt hanging out is a bit much and I would have liked to see her travel more and not be so spastic with her hand movements, but her hip movements and isolation is really great. Definitely well practiced.

  • Awesome moves, i love everything about it! 5 Stars

  • i wanna learn that

  • Best music heritage in the world

  • I think she's quite good. Her arm movements show real sophistication. Shame about her shoes. Her skill would be better served if she danced in bare feet. Judging by her hair and shoes I'd day this is an old video.

  • That's it baby, that's it, keep it up, everything is good, the costume & the dancing,

  • I like the costume personally!

    Also good lighting in this. (yay techies!)

  • shes not in time with the beat at times

     perhaps

  • so much negativity. just watch the damn video

  • U just jealous cuz she hot 7 sexy 7 you aint, she make money & you aint, she famous & you aint! ;)

  • look i havent got nything against her or n1 im jus sayin wat needs improvment lol

  • Very good hips, shame about the cheap costume she needs to invest in a good quality one and take off those shoes.

  • es buena,pero la mejor es didem.bailla bestial

  • nice!

  • i think she's dina gamal... i'm not sure guys !

  • dont know who she is but shes good!

  • Shakira no es totalmente lebanes, tambien ya tiene la sabgre latina, no todas las mujeres son iguales, recuerdalo....

  • por ke las chikas de belly dance no tienen muxa cintura y kadera???

    solo shakira

  • shakira no sabe realmente bailar el bellydance..pero baila bien tambien !

  • no es el belly dance, es dança árabe

  • perdoname shakira si sabe bailar muy bien, lo q pasa es q cada cual tiene su estilo

  • Tienes razon..si...

  • Perhaps they are talking about the style; and yes, hip movements can come from the belly OR they can come from the legs. There are many kinds of hip/belly/shoulder movements, why close your mind to just one?

  • Shakira eat your heart out!!!

  • she is the best i've ever seen!!!

  • if you dont know her, how do you know shes lebanese?

  • Its her hand movements...they aren't very graceful...

  • Who is looking at her hands?

  • not you perv!

  • Hand movements are as important as the body movements if you're looking for real skill and mastery of the dance and not just checking out her ass.

  • mmmm.....

    what is she doing?

  • Shod or barefoot; I don't care. She's still a great dancer! :-)

  • ummmmm this lady isnt lebanese...... i am lebanese n she isnt.....

  • she was not relaxed very stiffy, bcz of the heels . for belly dance better to be bare foot then u can move easily. but she is great I imagine if she wasn't wearing those shoes

  • shes a goddess, somebody should build a temple for her

  • she is the best dancer i have seen... Traditional as well.. not like didem or asena!

  • Hurra! A lebanese dancer who hasn't had surgery to within an inch of her life. She's gorgeous and dances very good. But I also don't like the shoes...

  • well, the shoes are part of the Lebanese dance style :)

  • I thought you were suppose to be bare foot

  • ever tried dancing in a restaurant where there is likely to be food (and who knows what else) on the floor?

    Lebanese (and many Turkish) dancers dance with shoes. It's also becoming fashionable for Western dancers to wear dance shoes on stage as well (eg. BDSS).

  • check Amira Abdi on Youtube.

  • Me, too, Pindar. Shoes and all!

  • She's alright! I love her outfit!

  • who is she shes amazing

  • I think someone else identified her as Ms. Najwa Fouad. But, I've no idea whether or not that's jsut her stage name.

  • thnx 4 that ill look it up :)

  • She is amazing!! Beautiful woman, outfit and great dancing!

  • Another potential rival for Didem. ;-)

  • güzelll

  • vanderfull

  • como se llama la cancion

  • WTF !! O.O

    She's wearing shoes !!!

    that's not belly dance -.-

  • THANK YOU! Finally someone who shares my opinion that this is NOT oriental dance!

  • wow. i've not seen this type of belly dancing before. she uses her hands a lot hey.

  • Lol all u ppl saying this isnt belly dancing dont know what u are talking about! I actually do belly dancing and there are actually many different styles of dance. This particular style she is doing is very hips orientated because she is dancing to a drum beat, and im sorry to say that belly dancing is a bit of a misleading name cos most of it does come from ur hips!!!

  • Bellies! Hips! I really don't care. I just love to watch the whole anatomy sway like palm trees in an animated cartoon. ;-)

  • I resapect your opinion, but I'm calling BS! It should come from your abdomen! That's your powerhouse!

  • the movement of the hips usually comes from the belly though, sometimes from the legs, but most isolation is from the belly. that's why it's bellydance. most of the movement comes from the core.

  • those shoes... :S

  • she´s good

    she´s hot

    but she really shouldn´t wear such ugly

    shoes

    belly dancing in high heels is pretty

    ignorant and dump

  • well im soryy to say this but belly dancing is hips aswell you no if it was just belly shaking then it wouldnt be very advertising love

  • Go to the side related videos and look at Sadie, the girl in the gold skirt. After seeing her and so many other amazingly technical dancers, this is amaturish at best.

  • Uh,...where is the bellydanceing?

  • did the vidoe not come up ?

  • In other words I see lots of butt shkaing....but no bellydancing. I don't like it.

  • shes great wooow :D

  • love it and the music

  • Wonderful dancer - I agree the shoes spoil it.

  • I_dont_Realy_Like_Lebanese_Bel­lydancing.

  • Everone prefers bare feet because it is easier. It is much more challenging to dance in shoes. This dancer is great, but her shoes are awful. Hi heels can be so sexy, but they must be a high heeled gold or silver sandal if you want them to go with your belly dance costume. I remember when I was dancing in Turkey back in the early 90's, all the bellydancers were wearing pumps and they looked awful.

  • i tried to dance i high heals and it's easyer to me to dance in shoes but i still perfer bare feet cuz wearing high heals while dancing to me looks kind of sluty...no offence.

  • i perfer bare feet too.

  • So do I.

  • no they dont all wear shoes sorry. suheir zaki doesnt wear shoes when she performs and neither does fifi abdou. shoes in an optional thing. you cant say all real oriental dancers wear shoes :/

  • all oriental dancers that work in the middle east wear shoes the dancers you are speaking of are old egyptian dancers who have only ever worked in north africa. their time has passed they are old and slow and out of touch. they don't compete or compare with us lebanese dancers of today that work the big contracts in the middle east. the reality is that in the middle east(not north africa)dancers do and always have worn shoes and anything else is seen as inferior.

  • samirabellydance2000

    This is Part I: You're what's call"ignorant". Look it up;it just means a lack of knowledge but the word packs a powerful punch, doesn't it? Authentic bellydance {BD}originated in N.Africa the source for Lebanese & all styles.

  • Samirabelldance2000: Part II

    The true belly dancer's time has past? Why because you want to go 'cabaret' closer to club exotic dancers who's belly chains are full of dollar bills because that's all they are worth? Something of value, culturally, is called art. The term "old money" associates a line of good breeding {BD} N. African Belly Dance. Nouveau riche" would be classless newly rich,cabaret.

  • Samirabellydance2000: Part III

    Don't you know the "middle-eastern" men import their hooker hill prostitutes the price is included in the gig. These men hoard their own women and treat them like posessions for breeding and their entertainment is from less respected women. And by the way, ornately decorated bare feet is the real turn on for men.

  • why do all the the lebanese belly dancers wear high heels????

  • i'm a bellydance who works contracts all over the middle east and it is the custom everywhere to wear high healed shoes, just like a latin dancer would always wear shoes. it's the proper, arabic way to perform. all real oriental dancers wear healed shoes!

  • the history of Egyptian bellydancers not wearing shoes started with Samia Gamal the legend, she kicked off her shoes and danced bare feet, and from than on, all bellydancers from Egypt danced bare feet...apparently Egyptians love to see the feet of a woman... Lebanese and Turkish dancers have influenced the wearing of high heels today..I still prefer bare feet myself.

  • why call it an 'arabic' way to wear high heals as a belly dancer, when high heels haven't been around for so long. Arabic women have been bellydancing for way longer before the invention of high heels. Personally I prefer to see a bellydancer dancing barefoot. I see Dina dances a lot barefoot and she is arabic as well. For my personal taste I see high heels more as inferior than barefoot dancing.

  • thats very good

  • look at her face , she doesnt seem to enjoy it.... sad to dance that way

  • Perhaps those darn high heels are uncomfortable, never understand how they can dance like that, they should take it off, umpf...

  • ?! She's smiling!! Also, thats hard work- so respect it!

  • she dances really good!! but she needs to move more her arms....because the arms as the hips are an important part of the belly dance

  • she's better than the turkish sticks that try to belly dance.

  • she maked my night

  • Almost as good as me ;-))

  • lani sho hetha akrroot ya'ami. kis imoon nafadoon. killoon lezim tekool shikh kel yuom..anyone speak arabic?

  • I didn't say that other contries are not beautiful. I am veery sure that they have gorgious people. its just my oppinion. its not like a hate them!! why would you think i would racist if i said what i thought? i bet every one else thinks something like thatabout your ont country. Its not racism, its being proud and happy about your country. Plus i was ""exaggerating"" to show how much i feel~

  • her name is rindala check out her other work on this users account crystaltearsvampire rindala is the one in pink

  • This chick is crazy. Crazy good!! ha...love it. She's quite the firecracker, she worked it.

  • I think it's really great. Does all lebanese girls can dance like this?? How long will take to learn this dance. I love it

  • Do you guys know where I can get this beat from?

    Please help me out

  • ummm first of all shes off the rthym plus those moves look too much RACHEL BRICE,, im not a belly dancer but trust me i can do wayyy better than her.. it looks to fake. poor woman is killing herself..

  • I think I saw that costume on eBay

  • what a beauty of dance

  • she is fantastic.. i wonder if she ever gets a stitch?/ beautiful body,costume, and amazing moves..

  • bravo!!!!!! i love when the dancers move their hips and stomach well, it is so boring when they run around the floor in circles and not moving their hips well, this is just beautiful

  • I WANT THIS SONG!!!!!

  • czy ja wiem czy taka wspaniala...? I moj Boże TE SZPILKI ...! fuuuj, jak mozna tanczyc taniec arabski w szpilach? :/ takiego motywu to jeszcze nigdy nie widzialam..:/ :/ polskie tancerki lepsze :P

  • excellent hips and beautiful figure.

    the only problem is lack of grace in arm movement.

  • What's this dancer's name?

  • Wow... If being jealous could kill, i would be dead and burried... One can only hope to have those hips. Ist's like she has springs on them... Can modern science make hips transplants nowadays? Because if they do, i want to know her name and adress to... :p eh eh

  • nobody dance like egyptian's and lebanon please some one believe me.

  • Yes in your dreams honey some people were made for surrent things your body isn't people

    are born with rythme its like asking a pregnant woman to run a marathon white girls are

    unable to dance excatly like a arab girl many after 10 years or 15 then you can be near

    there are expections Like 1 in a millon but general forget to try to bellydance your body

    isn't made for that

  • I am pretty good at it though. Although I have Spanish genes and arabs far back in the family. Hm. Not to say I'm an expert but I have only danced some months :-)

  • Awesome!!! In my dreams I dance like her. Good for her, you go girl!

  • omg i loveee it.

  • Oh my, she can do that wearing those high heels. Amazing! Really good dancer.

  • People sure are ignorant these days! Do you think shes worry about all your ignorant thoughts! She's loving exactly what does! I hope to be as great as she! She's beautiful!! And a beautiful dancer! Thats all that matters and thats why your watching her. Don't like her? Don't watch it! Don't comment. Because you dam sure can't replicate it!! You go girl!!

  • gOSH I BELLY DANCE TOO BUT SHE'S THE BOMB!! I GOTTA GET MY HIP DROPS LIKE HERS THEN I'D BE SOMETHING!!!

  • Fabulous. You have to watch this video from beginning to end! WHO IS SHE? I need to see more of her. I don't just want to see more of her - I NEED to see more.

  • I don't know if my comment went through already - anyhow I just wanted to point out that this is a Saidi dance, and it's offensive if you don't wear shoes. In Saidi culture, only the peasants and lower class go barefoot - a part of the dance is to show off your footwear.

  • also, want to add to your comment that, if it's offensive to dance barefoot, it would be better if dancers use the shoes without hills. when she stands on the hills, she cannot make many good stuff. somebody has mentioned that some motions r easier on the hills, but these r only SOME motions, not the most of them.

  • THE BEST ONE

    FROM SPAIN

  • well im not an expert on belly dance even though i dont like being barefoot i think when a BD performer is performing it looks so much better in barefoot cause with the heels it looks just like a costume.. when you're barefoot you look more free...

  • "when you're barefoot you look more free..."

    Right!

  • this is one of the best video of a dancer "spot on" the rhythm.

    jamileh !

  • woooooow

  • lol

  • najwa fouad is one the best dancers i have known. incase you guys wantd to know her name. and she is Egyptian not lebanees

  • cant understand y do they wear that shoes, belly dancing doesnt need any footwear, also it looks much better when the dancer is without it

  • Actually some moves are easier in heels. Try it. Belly dance isn't just "Goddess dance" where women try to get in tune with "Mother Earth" ... I would NEVER dance in a restaurant or unfamiliar setting WITHOUT shoes. I'm not interested in having my feet damaged by something on the ground.
