> Although she has broken her silence on her love life, Berita Harian reported that singer Dayang Nurfaizah, 44, is still keeping mum on the identity of the handsome man she is dating.
The singer, whose real name is Dayang Nurfaizah Awang Dowty, admitted that speculations of her relationship surfaced recently following her song Jodoh Di Hari Raya, which was released during Ramadan.
'I do not deny knowing someone, nor do I confirm or deny a possible marriage.
'It's a common cliche to hear about a suitor,' she said at a recent press conference.
She said that she had left the matter to fate because she was currently enjoying her life.
Previous rumours had linked Dayang Nurfaizah with another local singer who is already engaged, but this has been denied by the latter, who stated they were merely friends.
On her career, Dayang Nurfaizah said she intends to return to her Sarawakian roots to record the song Bekikis Bulu Betis in Iban.
