Nejla Ateş, appeared in several Turkish and American films as an actress and dancer. She modeled on the cover of several record albums as well, most famously (or infamously) on Mohammed El-Bakkar's album "Port Said." She also performed on Broadway, in "Fanny" and became known as the "Exquisite Turkish Delight." She died in 1965 from an overdose of barbiturates.

  • This is so pretty and feminine! I love Retro-Raks!

  • Turkish is much more sensual that many other kinds of belly dance, for many styles the sexier moves were eliminated for many reasons. In the US they were trying to get away from the hoochy coochy image and it became very repressed for a long time to try to gain respectability.

  • Great dancer! Thank you for this film!

  • Wow this is Ateş-( fire) ..really its nice to watch .Turkish belly dance is much more free spirited in costumes and moves ..She was really a legendary one R.I.P

  • thats the stories of homer oddysees taken by the arabs in the mid 9 century and translated in their world like the hero sindbad,,

  • @kraols Granted, retardation is not necessarily a natural attribute but in your case it's self-developed.

  • Like this vid if you thought Vincent Price only did horror movies.

  • @kraols WTF?!? Who the fuck are you?!? LOL Here's your fucked up expressed thought, mind you, I don't even know in what context you're referrering to: 'How is that 'positively hates Turkey' I cannot understand what you're trying to ask. What the fuck are you even  talking about?!?

  • This is a talented dancer and this is belly dancing people

  • She's definitely pretty ;)
