Abdul-Jalil, Superstar Management worked PRIVATE EVENTS for members of Saudi Royal Family In Giza at Pyramids
Abdul-Jalil and Superstar Management has worked in PRIVATE EVENTS with several members of the Saudi Arabian Royal family including His Royal Highness (HRH) Prince Turki Ibn Abdel Aziz and his wife His Royal Highness Princess Hend Shams El-Din El-Fassi of Saudi Arabia.
Prince Turki, a Saudi Arabian politician and businessman was a member of the House of Saud, he was the full brother of King Fahd and King Salman. Prince Turki was a member of the Sudairi Seven, a powerful faction of brothers within the Al Saud.
His parents were King Abdulaziz and Hassa bint Ahmed Al Sudairi. He was known as Turki the second because he was the second son of King Abdulaziz named “Turki”.
Prince Turki studied at the Princes’ School established by his father.
Turki bin Abdulaziz assumed the Riyadh principality delegation in 1957, because his brother Salman, governor of Riyadh (later King Salman), travelled with King Saud to Lebanon.
In 1960 he also served as the acting governor when Prince Salman was on leave.
Turki bin Abdulaziz was appointed deputy defense minister on 24 July 1969 by a royal order. His tenure lasted until 1978 when he was forced to resign from office due to his marriage to Hend Shams El-Din El-Fassi.
The stunning beautiful 20-year-old Princess Hend Shams El-Din El-Fassi, a Gulf Royalty socialite in the Mubarak era, was perhaps the FIRST Arab Feminist, in her fighting for womens liberation and rights, she became a tabloid queen. For nine years, the family and their entourage travelled the World, enjoying a lavish and outlandish culture of life that came to define the “Lifestyles of The Rich and Famous” with Robin Leach with their very own “champagne wishes and caviar dreams.” They had multiple popular destinations for vacation, recreation, and resort residences all over the world, while they retreated to Miami, Florida, USA and their compound occupied the top three floors of the Ramses Hilton, Cairo, Egypt. They also had the fabulous 5 Star Marriott Mena House Resort, in Giza at the Pyramids in Egypt.
We performed events for Princess Hend and the young Sheik Turki in Giza at the Pyramids in Egypt.
Before Jason Collins
Before Jason Collins
The world is throwing a parade for Jason Collins, the 7-foot free-agent NBA center who came out last month. He was hugged by Oprah, celebrated by “Good Morning America,” and congratulated by President Obama.
But nobody seems to remember baseball’s Glenn Burke, who tried to come out nearly 40 years ago and was stuffed back in.
“How’s Jason Collins going to talk about being the first?” says Burke’s agent, Abdul-Jalil al-Hakim. “Glenn Burke was the first. And he wasn’t any free agent, either. He was in the lineup.”
Glenn Burke was a barrel-chested jokester, a singing, dancing, one-man cabaret. His teammates called him King Kong. In high school, the 6-foot Burke could dunk two basketballs at once, in street shoes. He roamed center field for the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Oakland A’s in the late 1970s.
Burke was the pulse of the clubhouse. He wore a red jock. He’d jump in the backs of pink Rolls-Royces after games. He invented the high-five (with Dusty Baker). Oh, yes, he did.
He was as out as an athlete could be in the mid-1970s. It wasn’t that he was flaunting it. It was that he couldn’t keep it in.
“When we’d land at airports,” remembers Davey Lopes, the Dodgers’ second baseman. “There’d always be guys waiting for Glenn. We’d go our way and he’d go off on his merry way. We’d go to clubs and women would hand him their numbers. But he’d never call ’em. Didn’t matter to us. We loved him.”
In the famous 1977 Dodgers-Yankees World Series — starring Reggie Jackson, Thurman Munson, Steve Garvey, and Ron Cey — only one rookie cracked either starting lineup: Glenn Burke.
“Nobody tripped that he was gay,” says Burke’s longtime pal, Doug Harris, who produced the documentary “Out” about Burke in 2010. “The people who tripped off it were the Dodgers [management]. They didn’t want to talk about it. He was trying to tell the reporters, but they said they couldn’t write that stuff.”
