Hadi Riad Sharara (or Hady Sharara, Arabic: هادي شرارة, born 1969) is a Lebanese music arranger, composer and producer. He is the son of the famous Lebanese television anchor Riad Sharara and the husband of the famous Lebanese singer of Carole Sakr.
He has also been the music producer of the Arabic versions of The X Factor and Dancing with the Stars.
He was subject to criticism because of his statements during the "Menna w Jerr" episode by Pierre Rabbat on MTV, considering that the artist Maya Diab possesses the qualifications that his father Riad Sharara had, which prompted him to issue an explanation during which he declared his remorse for appearing in the program.
