Nawal El Kuwaitia

Nawal (; born Nawal Thaher Habib Al-Zaid , 18 November 1966), formerly known by her stage name Nawal () is a singer and actress.

Career

Nawal studied at the Music Institute in Kuwait.

Nawal's first album was released in 1984. The majority of her albums are not titled, but rather are referred to by number (e.g. Nawal 98, Nawal 99). She has also filmed many music videos (mainly in Lebanon) and was one of the first Khaliji artists to do so.

After retiring from her singing career for personal reasons, Nawal returned after five years with a duet performed with Abdullah Rashad, "Kan Widdi Niltiki" ("I Wished We Could Have Met").

In 2022, she joined Spotify's EQUAL Arabia as its ambassador for the month of July.

In December 2024, it was reported that her citizenship was revoked by the Kuwaiti government, amid hundreds of nationality revocations in the country. As such, Nawal reportedly removed her titular nickname "El-Kuwaitia" from all of her social media pages.
