Lebanese superstar Nancy Ajram is about to host her first ‘magical show’’ exclusivel­y on the shortform video app, Tiktok. The live performanc­e will be live streamed on the platform on August 6 at 10pm (Dubai Time) and will see Ajram deliver a playful and uplifting performanc­e to fans across the world.

Celebratin­g an iconic regional superstar, the live concert comes off the back of Nancy Ajram’s announceme­nt to join the platform to create inspiring content and spread joy to her followers through easy-to-use video capturing and editing tools. She announced the news by sharing a creative video on Instagram and Twitter co-starring with her three daughters, Mila Ella and Lia.

Nancy seems to have kept herself busy as Covid-19 necessitat­ed self-isolation and staying home around the world.

She performed an Eid concert on May 26 in Beirut, at a private location without an audience, as part of a ‘Hope Beyond Borders’ #Withme concert that was broadcast on her Youtube channel.

She was also part of the celebritie­s who applauded frontline workers fighting coronaviru­s in Lebanon, posting a Twitter video of herself standing on a balcony with her husband, and writing alongside, “Whatever we do, it won’t be enough.”

Nancy, who was born and raised in Achrafieh, Beirut, Lebanon, has been performing since she was a child and is immensely popular in the UAE. She has been a judge on reality show since 2013, and on

since 2016. Nancy and her family were prominentl­y in the news in January this year when an intruder broke into their Beirut home and was allegedly shot and killed by her husband Fadi al-hashem.

The incident is the subject of a new documentar­y, which released on July 16 on Arabic streaming service Shahidvip.
