Acting career

[edit]

Donia participated in two TV shows when she was a child. She attracted attention while acting in an Egyptian series called "Justice has many faces." Her first appearance in a film was in 2005 with the comedian Mohamed Henedi.

Through appearances in various Egyptian talk shows, Donia stood out for her mimicry of other Arab singers. Her most famous imitation was of Ahlam's voice singing Myriam Fares's song. Her first song was called "Far2 el Sen".

She was a judge on the 4th season (2015) of The X Factor Arabia along with Elissa and Ragheb Alama, both Lebanese singers.
