Just close your eyes... think of Egypt..No one can identify her exact features, and no one can still explain why we always feminize Egypt! Maybe because she is the mother of all the lands, of all mothers. Think deeper, concentrate more and dive further into your imagination and try to picture this lady, you will realize that she is a lot like the smiling "Shadya" singing "Egypt, today in feast - Masr Elyowm fee Eid", or maybe an angry Egypt when she sings "Lesson over, pick up books- Eldars Entaha Limmo Elkararees", or let her be lovely Egypt singing "Egypt, My Love - Ya Habibti Ya Masr".In celebration of this unique artist's birthday, that was first named "The doll of the Egyptian cinema" but not too long after that she was named "The legend of the Egyptian Cinema"; she confuses any writer who looks closer into her long artistic history, or maybe makes him scream his head off like Ali Baba when he found the treasure and cried "Gold! Sapphire!! Diamonds!!! Thank God!".Shadya, who has the most successful and famous film duets with Kamal Elshenawy, Abd El Halim Hafez and Farid Al Atrash has also formed a magnificent trio with Shokuku and Ismail Yassin.Shadya, who made very successful comedy films like "My wife, The manager - Meraty Modeer Aam", and made the most important political film "Something of Fear - Shaye Min Elkhawf", and she is the one who made the most classic and romantic film ever "More Expensive than my Life- Aghla Min Hayati"; is the one who stormed into the comedian theater and competed with two of its pioneers and overcame them: Abd El Minem Madboly and Suhair El Babli" in the play "Raya & Skeena".Shadya, the most successful singer who acts, and the most successful actress who sings, is a magical artistic mosaic that only comes once in a lifetime; was discovered by Helmy Raflah who named her "The Doll" but she diverted this path with an innate artistic genius by doing "The Unknown Woman- Al Maraa Al Majhoola" with director Mahmoud Thou Al Faqar. A legend, who retired when she was on the summit of her success, so that she will always stay in the minds of her fans as bright as a star, and for her voice stays warm in their hearts as an eternal source of joy, happiness, sadness and patriotism. Let history mark that when Otthman Turkey invaded Egypt it took all the unique makers and engineers to Istanbul, delaying Egypt many years to catch up with the civilization. But, the Egyptians shall always forgive Turkey for that sin as it gifted them Fatema Kamal Eldin Ahmed Shaker, also known as "Shadya", the artist that the pen smiles and dances just writing about her.
