Salah The Entertainer wins Arabs Got Talent

posted on: Mar 9, 2015

The biggest moments of any Arabs Got Talent episode always come with tears – and the Saturday night season finale was no exception. When the hosts Qusai and Raya Abirached announced that dancer Salah The Entertainer had won the show’s fourth season, the 35-year-old Algerian-Moroccan stood frozen for several seconds, then broke into uncontrollable sobs. By the end of the evening – he was the last to perform – there was little doubt that Salah was the most deserving of the 10 finalists, combining smoothly synchronised moves and incredible flexibility. As a freestyle dancer known for his mastery of hip-hop’s popping moves, his command over his body coupled with his technique, skill and facial expressions made him the perfect package.

Unanimous praise

The Egyptian judge Ahmed Helmy, a comedian and actor, said: “You are a jewel; an artistic jewel. You do something incredibly difficult. You can easily put on a two-hour show without anyone getting bored.”

Salah, a professional dancer with a recurring show in Las Vegas, is a Paris resident who won the France’s Got Talent reality TV competition in 2006, but said that his “dream was to compete on Arabs Got Talent”.
