Music Career

Sherine's singing talent was first noticed by her music teacher when she was a child. When she was nine years old, her teacher told her mom to take her to the Cairo Opera House. There, she met Selim Sahab, a famous Egyptian music conductor.

She sang for him, and he really liked her voice. From age nine to 12, Sherine sang in the choir at the Cairo Opera House. Later, she got the chance to sing by herself and was very successful.

She kept singing at the Cairo Opera House while looking for a music producer. A music producer helps artists record and release their songs. When she was 18, she met Nasr Mahrous, a well-known producer. He liked her voice and decided to work with her.

She joined his company, Free Music. There, she met Tamer Hosny, who was also a new singer. Nasr Mahrous decided to release an album with both Sherine and Tamer Hosny. The album, called Free Mix3 - Tamer & Sherine, came out in September 2002. It was a huge hit across the Middle East and North Africa, selling over 20 million copies.
