Amr Diab & TLT Concepts Launch Resort on Egypt's North Coast

A beach club, Mediterranean restaurant, party arena, and soon: a boutique hotel and villas inside Emaar Misr's Marassi. For decades, musical icon Amr Diab has been the soundtrack of Egyptian summer—his voice drifting across Sahel beaches, rooftop speakers, and car stereos heading west. But this season, he's not just shaping the sound—he's shaping the scene itself. In creative collaboration with TLT Concepts—the minds behind experiential destinations like The Lemon Tree & Co. and Villa Coconut—the legendary artist has launched Maa'soom: a new coastal hub where music, fire, water, and Diab's unmistakable energy converge in rhythm. Set along the glittering promenade of Marassi—Emaar Misr's exclusive North Coast compound—Maa'soom is a paradox by design. Its name, Arabic for 'divided' and a subtle nod to musical phrasing, evokes a space where shadow meets light, and stillness stirs to sound. That duality is sculpted into every surface. Led by Dimitri Tsigos of Omniview Design with TLT Studio, the design flows between raw textures and polished finishes, wide-open lounges and intimate corners, sun-drenched afternoons and sultry nights. But Maa'soom is more than a look—it's a full-bodied rhythm. At its core lies a multi-level beach club where cabanas face the sea and the poolside beat never quite breaks. Above it, an elevated restaurant sets the table for long lunches and golden-hour gatherings. Curated by Chef Mirette Aly, the Mediterranean-inspired menu plays with fire and finesse—smoked over live flames by pitmaster Hattem Mattar, then refined by Grecian elegance under Chef Michalis Nourloglou. The result? A menu that moves away from conventional mezza and toward generous, shareable dishes made for connection and conversation. And when night descends, the tempo rises. At The Arena—Maa'soom's open-air party playground—light, sound, and movement collide in true Diab fashion. This, of course, is only the overture. A boutique hotel and private waterfront villas will follow in 2026, completing the resort's transformation into a fully immersive coastal world. Until then, Maa'soom stands as a new kind of North Coast landmark—designed for contrast, built for rhythm, and led by a man who's always known how to own the summer.

Billie Eilish and James Cameron Team Up for 3D Project

Yara Sameh Billie Eilish is teaming up with director James Cameron on a project shot in 3D. Eilish announced the collaboration during her concert in Manchester on Sunday evening. While she was relatively coy about what the project would be, the pop star did confirm that she's filming something that requires her to be in the same outfit across her four nights at Co-op Live, where Cameron was in the audience. More details will emerge in the coming months about where the footage will end up — fans on social media were speculating that it could be a documentary, film, or even music video. 'So you may have noticed that there are more cameras than usual in here,' Eilish told the crowd. 'Basically, I can't say much about it but what I can say is that I'm working on something very, very special with somebody named James Cameron and it's going to be in 3D. So, take that as you will and these four shows here in Manchester, you and me are part of a thing that I am making with him. He's in this audience somewhere, just saying. So don't mind that, and also I'll probably be wearing this exact outfit for like four days in a row.' In the past, Eilish has released several films, including the 2021 documentary 'Billie Eilish: The World's a Little Blurry' and the concert film 'Happier Than Ever: A Love Letter to Los Angeles.' She is currently on a world tour in support of her third album 'Hit Me Hard and Soft,' which was released last year. Eilish kicked off the trek in September 2024, touching down in North America and Australia before heading over to Europe. Following her shows in Manchester, she'll perform in Japan before circling back to the United States where she'll conclude on November 23 at San Francisco's Chase Center. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks
