Happier times: Shila and Sharnaaz attending the Anugerah Industri Muzik at Stadium Malawati Shah Alam. SINGER Shila Amzah and actor Sharnaaz Ahmad are no longer an item.
Sinar Harian reported that Shila, 23, who shot to fame after winning the inaugural season of China-based television programme Asia Wave last year, tweeted that she felt sad after the break-up, but would continue to pray for Sharnaaz, 28.
“Even if we can't be together in the end, I'm grateful that you were a part of my life at one point. I wish you all the best; I'll pray for you,” she tweeted two days ago.
However, the daily said Sharnaaz, who acted in the movie Juvana, denied that their relationship was over.
Shila's year-old relationship with Sharnaaz became hot news following public spats between her and her father, 80s singer ND Lala over the love affair.
ND Lala responded to Sharnaaz's plan to propose to Shila by calling him biadab (rude).
> About 130 Felda settlers from Johor saw their dream of visiting the holy land for umrah shattered when they were cheated by the middleman who was supposed to book the flight tickets for them.
The group only found out that their trip had been cancelled a few hours before they were to take off.
Some had even arrived at the Senai airport when they were told that the trip had been cancelled, reported Kosmo!
The agent and leader of the group, Arpan Omar, lodged a report at the Johor Baru Selatan police station.
> The daily also reported that singer Datuk Siti Nurhaliza Tarudin, 33, has denied talk that her husband Datuk Khalid Jiwa had fractured his spine following an accident in Queenstown, New Zealand, in December.
“His spine is not fractured. Still, thank you for your prayers,” she tweeted following queries from fans about her husband's health.
Siti Nurhaliza is currently taking a break from her music career to care for Khalid, 53, who is recovering from injuries after his motorcycle crashed into a fence on Dec 13.
