Celebrity

The international sensation, Dhafer L’Abidine, is one of the few Arab stars to make it global. The ‘Black Forest’ actor was one of the few handpicked applicants to enrol in Birmingham school of Speech and Drama before he commenced his acting journey in the West, which has helped his celebrity status catapult to international stardom where he starred in numerous Hollywood movies including ‘A Hologram for the King’ with Tom Hanks. L’Abidine talks to us about how his adventures in cinema have begun and lets us on his upcoming projects.

The talented Tunisian star, Dorra Zarrouk, has managed to climb the ladder of affluence by first joining a theatre group in Tunisia and later joining the cinematic scene in Egypt, where her celebrity status soared highest, making her a favourite to all of us. We were lucky enough to meet the stunning starlet, and she’s given us a glimpse of the paparazzi life and a how she’s made it to the top. 

She’s the definition of bold and beautiful. After many successful episodes on her radio and TV shows, she has touched on every Egyptian problem that needs attention, from controversial topics, to more familial issues; she’s covered it all. After all, it only takes a woman with an overwhelming eloquence to make Inas Al-Degheidy cry. We’ve spoken to the stunning and socially intelligent Sally Abdalsalam about how she has come up with her show ideas, her plans, and her views on contemporary feminism. Check out what she said!

After releasing her astounding new single ‘Ahdam Khabreye’ (The Nicest News), Haifa continues to amaze us by throwing a ground-breaking show at 6ixdegrees in the North Coast. We hustled all night to the catchy tunes and were sent home with a hell of a night to remember. We asked the Middle East’s own beauty icon everything we were curious to know, here’s what she told us…

She’s not your average spoiled pop star. Layal was a hardcore policewoman before she decided to follow her long-life dream of singing for a living. Being surrounded by music and arts since she was a child, it’s only natural that she has ended up becoming a sensational Middle Eastern icon as she adamantly pursued that path as soon as she discovered her talent. We asked her how she made it, and this is what she told us.
