In 1937, when Badia was distracted by her efforts to launch a new career as a movie star, she delegated power of attorney to Antoine. He became involved with Beba Ezz el-Din as his mistress, and succumbed to Beba's wiles, selling Sala Badia to her.
Aziz Eid
As of 1932-1933, Aziz Eid was the artistic director and producer in the theater company of his wife, Fatma Rushdie. He was known as the Pioneer of Arab Theater, because he studied French theatrical techniques and then applied what he learned to Egyptian theater. He died in 1942 at age 58.
Aziza
This ad mentions an "Aziza" without a surname. It is unclear whether she could be one of the same "Azizas" who was promoted elsewhere with a surname.
Badi Khairy
Other ways people sometimes transliterate his name have included Badea, Bade3, or Badeaa.
Badia
Because the ad doesn't mention a surname, it's unclear which Badia this might have been. Badia Fawzy and Badia Sadek were two entertainers who were active at this time, but it also possibly could have been someone else.

Dawlath Soliman was an Egyptian-German dancer whose career primarily thrived in Germany.
Dina
Dina is a very prominent dancer in the Egyptian five-star hotels.
El Qalaawi
The advertisement which mentioned El Qalaawi did not identify his first name. Although there two famous Egyptian actors with the surname el-Qalaawi (Mahmoud and Ehsan), both were born in the 1930's and therefore the timing would not have been right for either of them to be the El Qalaawi mentioned in this advertisement.
This ad might have been a reference to Abdel Halim el-Kalawi, who performed in some of Badia Masabni's shows in the 1930's.
Ensaf Mohamed

Fathya
It is unclear which Fathya was intended by the ad, since a last name was not given, and there were several Fathya's who worked for Badia Masabni in the 1930's.
Fathya Ahmed
Fathya Ahmed was a popular Egyptian singer who was already established before Badia Masabni came to Cairo. She worked for Badia for a time, then later opened her own club.
Fathya Sherif
Fathya Sherif was married to actor Emad Hamdi.
Gamalat
Since the ad does not contain a surname, it's unclear whether this is the same person as Gamalat Hassan.
Gina Markisian
Note from Priscilla Adum: Gina appears in some of Badia Masabni's ads as just "Gina", and sometimes as "Gina Markisian". She was also a member of Isaac Dickson's dance troupe, and was billed as such in at least one film. Her name can also be sounded out from the Arabic as Jena or Jenna. Gina was an Armenian, born in Alexandria.
Gina played an important role in the 1950 film Asmar Gamil: a greedy gold digger named Amouna. There's also a scene in one of Samia Gamal's films where Gina plays the part of a French dance teacher in which she teaches Samia Gamal how to Lindy Hop.
Layla el-3amrya
Layla el-3amrya was the adopted daughter of Badia Masabni. Also known as Layla el-Chakraa, the Blonde Layla, and Juliet Masabni. Sometimes spelled as Leila al-Amriya.
Mary
It is unclear whether the same "Mary" performed in each of these shows, or whether there were multiple dancers named Mary who were advertised without a surname.
Mary Ezz el-Din
Mary Ezz el-Din co-owned Casino Ezz el-Din with Youssef Ezz el-Din. It's unclear what their relationship (if any) was beyond that of business partners. She is not related to Beba Ezz el-Din — the surname is a common one in Lebanon. Mary was both a singer and an actress, as well as a business owner.
Mimi
Since the ad doesn't provide a surname, there's not enough information available to determine whether this might be the same person as one of the other Mimi's listed below. It might have been Mimi el-Saghiera, because Badia Masabni's show with 60 people took place just 2 weeks after Badia's show at the Alhambra, and both shows featured a "Mimi".
Mounira al-Mahdiya
Mounira al-Mahdiya was known as the "Star of the East" before that label was applied to Oum Kalthoum.
Naemet Mokhtar
Naemet Mokhtar performed dance scenes in several Egyptian movies in the 1950's.
Naguib el-Rehani
Naguib el-Rehani ran a theater company in Cairo in the early 20th century. He was Badia Masabni's husband.
- 1949 Eini Betref. Translation for a song Naguib el-Rehani performed as a duet with Leila Murad in the movie Ghazal al-Banat.
Sara
All of these ads showed someone named "Sara" without a surname. It is unclear whether all referenced the same "Sara".
Sayed Mustafa
- 1939 Ad for Teatro Beba. Appeared October 4, 1939 in Al Ahram. Credits Sayed Mustafa as the music composer for the plays Parcel Department and Love of Army.
Soad
It's unclear whether the Soad mentioned without a surname in this ad is one of the same Soads that was mentioned with a surname in other ads.
Taheya Carioca
Articles and Interviews
Mentioned in Advertisements
Youssef Ezz el-Din
Youssef Ezz el-Din co-owned Casino Ezz el-Din with Mary Ezz el-Din. It's unclear what their relationship was beyond that of buisness partners. He is not related to Beba Ezz el-Din — the surname is a common one in Lebanon.
Zozo
Since the ads did not mention a surname, it is unclear whether this Zozo is the same person as one of the Zozo's mentioned below.
Zozo Labeb
Other ways to spell her name include Zouzou Labib or Zuzu Labib. Her biography on the El Cinema web site describes her as a singer and an actress.
