Sherine Sayed Mohamed Abdel Wahab (Arabic: شيرين سيد محمد عبد الوهاب), known simply as Sherine, is a famous Egyptian singer and actress. She was born on October 8, 1980. Many people call her "The Voice of Egypt" because of her amazing singing talent. Sherine was also a judge on the TV show The Voice: Ahla Sawt.

Sherine's Early Life and Family

Sherine was born in Cairo, Egypt, on October 8, 1980. She grew up in a regular family. Her father worked as a decorator, and her mother was a housewife. Sherine has one brother and one sister.

She married Egyptian pop singer Hossam Habib on April 12, 2018. Their wedding was a small event with close family and friends. Sherine's two daughters from her first marriage were also there. Sherine and Hossam Habib divorced in 2021. They remarried a year later but divorced again in December 2023.

Sherine's Music Journey

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 mother to take her to the Cairo Opera House. There, she met Selim Sahab, a famous Egyptian music conductor. Sherine sang for him, and he was very impressed by her voice.

From ages nine to twelve, 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 Opera House while looking for someone to help her start a professional music career.

Starting Her Professional Career

At 18, Sherine met Nasr Mahrous, a well-known music producer. He liked her voice and decided to work with her. She also met Tamer Hosny, another new singer, at Nasr Mahrous's company, Free Music.

Nasr Mahrous decided to release an album that featured both Tamer Hosny and Sherine. This album, called Free Mix3 - Tamer & Sherine, came out in September 2002. It included two songs where they sang together. The album became a huge hit across the Middle East and North Africa, selling over 20 million copies.

Recently, one of her songs, "Sabry Aalil," became very popular on TikTok. It also saw a big increase in plays on Spotify.
