Hiba Tawaji wows judges on France’s ‘The Voice’

Hiba-Tawaji-2

(PARIS, FRANCE) — Lebanese singer Hiba Tawaji wowed judges on the French version of ‘The Voice’ on Saturday, after performing the Arabic rendition of Michel Legrand’s Les moulins de mon cœur, or The Windmills of my Heart.

All four judges granted Tawaji a standing ovation following her live performance. They praised her “audacity” that defied traditional elements of Arabic music.

“I’m blushing because you are a great singer,” Lebanese-British singer Mika told Tawaji, who later selected him as her mentor.

Tawaji is widely known for collaborating with prominent producer and composed Oussama Rahbani in 2007.

In 2014, Aline Lahoud also wowed judges after performing “Khedni Maak,” but was eliminated in the second round.
