Bilal Wahib
Bilal El Mehdi Wahib (born in Amsterdam, 20 January 1999) is a Dutch actor, singer and rapper. He has appeared in diverse Dutch films and series like "Nieuwe buren", "SpangaS", "Mocro Maffia" and "Commando's" and films "Layla M.", "De Held", "De libi" and "Paradise Drifters" portrayed mainly in ethnic roles. In 2020, he won the Golden Calf for Best Supporting Actor for his role in "Paradise Drifters" in the role of Yousef. Besides frequent appearances on screen, he also developed a music career with a number of singles starting 2019. His debiut charting single was from the  soundtrack of the film he had a role in, "De libi", resulting in the single "Vliegen". His 2020 hit "Tigers" and his 2021 hit "501" both topped the Dutch Single Top 100 chart and peaked at number 3 on the Dutch Top 40 charts. He was nominated to top 5 of the MTV Europe Music Award for Best Dutch Act for 2020 but did not win. In March 2021, Wahib came under scrutiny after appearing in a controversial live stream on Instagram in which Wahib requested a 12 year old boy to show his penis in front of his audience  in exchange for 17,000 euros, a request the boy acted upon. It was intended as a pun, based on the fact that in Dutch the same phrase can mean "if you can show your penis" as well as "if you can make your penis see". This resulted in Wahib being dropped from BNNVARA and his record label TopNotch.
