One can tell the difference between the dancer and the wiggler, even thought the dancer isn't allowed to dance much in that scene.

Naima Akef was the absolute bomb! There was also another dancer whose name began with an N who was Turkish but after racking my brains I can't remember her name. It wasn't Ozel Turkbas but she was dancing around the same time.

Soheir Zaki's great! Love her costume, and I would have kept that veil if she'd handed it to me!! :lol:

Lydia Tsigane, a dancer in Dubai who who used to post here, made a habit of giving away her veils to young girls. Imagine the sheer romance of being handed a silk veil by this glorious dancer who looks like Esmeralda with her dark cloud of hair hand. Had such a thing ever happened to child Shanazel, she surely would've plotzed. She sent me a purple and gold khaleeji dress several years ago and I treasure it.

I love Soheir Zaki, she's probably my favorite dancer from that time! I had never heard of Diane Webber before though.
