Cairo – Amira Tharwat
After coaching her on The Voice, Iraqi singer Kadim al-Saher has revealed his plans to make an album with Tunisian contestant Yosra Mahnouch. Al-Saher expressed his faith in Mahnouch's talent throughout the series. After her semi-final performance of Umm Kulthum's Bieed Annak, he commented on her ability to "sing Umm Kulthum's songs without impersonating Umm Kulthum" and hailed her "special way" with vocals. He also described her as "wonderful" and "a true singer." Mahnouch continues to be grateful to her TV coach and said she has learned a great deal from his coaching and advice. She also said she was "very happy" with the impending duet album, saying "any young singer still at the beginning of their career would dream of singing alongside such a big star." The Tunisian singer described al-Saher as "one of the Arab world's singing legends" and expressed her gratitude for his "moral support" and for "opening up new musical horizons" for her. She also described him "the teacher, master and older brother" and said his sponsorship of her talent was "a great honour."
