Amal Anbari (Arabic: أمل العنبري, born on April 16, 1987), is a Bahraini-Moroccan actress and singer.

Biography[edit]

Born in Morocco, Anbari holds Bahraini citizenship,[1][2] and her debut was on the fourth season of Star Academy, broadcast in 2006 on LBC out of Lebanon. After her elimination from the show, she moved to Beirut,[3] from whence she moved again to live with her aunt in Kuwait. In 2010, she enrolled at the Higher Institute of Dramatic Arts there, but she left for a casting call in Bahrain with Kuwaiti director Mohammed Daham Al-Shammari.

Personal life[edit]

Anbari married Kuwaiti-Lebanese fashion designer Usama Faham, brother of her manager Zakaria Faham,[4] in 2008,[5] and left the entertainment business for some time. She separated in mid-2009, resuming her career and marrying a Bahraini businessman, whereby she acquired Bahraini citizenship.

Music[edit]

Anbari released several singles, starting with her own composition, “روح إبعد بعيد” (“So Far Away”). Two more singles were released in Bahrain. “رضيت بالمر” was accompanied by a video filmed in Kuwait and featured lyrics by Meshal Al-Zayer, music by Nasser Naif, and arranged by Bader Karam. “كثير كثير” (“Very Much”), recorded in Lebanon, featured music by Tareq Abu Judeh, lyrics by Elias Nasser, arranged by Michel Fadel.[6]

Acting breakthrough[edit]

Anbari's breakthrough into acting came when Al-Shammari cast her in بعدك طيب (“Beyond Taib”), after which she mastered Kuwaiti Arabic, which she would use in later television and theater roles.[7]
