Since the Zahia affair which affected the French football team, Zahia Dehar has continued to surprise with her ability to reinvent herself. The young woman notably posed for photographers Pierre and Gilles, who made her their Eve then their Marianne.

She then inspired Karl Lagerfeld, when she released a lingerie line. Zahia Dehar also starred for Rebecca Zlotowski in the film “An easy girl“. And in interviews, as in her art, she has never denied her past as an escort…

Zahia after 1001 nights

This October 5, 2024, it was in Shéhérazade that Zahia Dehar appeared for a new show. It is called “The 1002nd Night of Zahia Dehar”.

And she couldn’t be more “heureuse”, as she announced at the end of September, on her networks. Zahia then arranged to meet her fans “for a magical evening full of surprises at the Arab World Institute“.

This Saturday evening, Zahia Dehar appeared on stage dressed in a very sexy oriental outfit, à la Scheherazade. With bare legs, she took her place in a decor of rugs and mint tea sets.

On the website of the Arab World Institute, which hosted it, we discover the content of this tailor-made show. We are told about “A selection of texts, taken from collections by Abu Nawas or the Thousand and One Nights, read in Arabic and French, will punctuate an evening where concerts, performances and projections will create a cozy atmosphere for an evening, and nevertheless festive, a unique sensory cabaret that will go back in time – traditional songs and poetry from the 6the century through raï and electro music”.

A show in good company

Zahia Dehar was accompanied this Saturday by Farhat Bouallagui (violin), Kenzi Bourras (keyboards), Cheikha Hadjla (vocals), Diva Beirut (performances), Sameh Fakhri (accordion).

Also supported by Edouard Iskandar (flûte-nây), Amir Khammasi (chant), Imed Labidi (percussions on and off), Imad Morkos (kanoun), Sharouh (DJ)…
