Actress Tuana El Gohary Likes To Keep Her Everyday Wardrobe 'Simple'
From Van Cleef to Kojak, the Kamel El Adad star has the range of someone who loves looking put together. Aug 15, 2025 Rising star Tuana El Gohary, whom you might've seen on Egyptian Ramadan series Kamel El Adad and Tamer Hosny's film Restart, has always loved dressing up. To her, it was a means of organically addressing her femininity, and over a short time, the 16-year-old actress developed her own unique style. 'To me, looking put together isn't just about appearance,' tells us El Gohary, 'it's something that gives me a sense of calm, confidence, and mental ease.' El Gohary describes her style as feminine, elegant, polished but also versatile. She doesn't always dress up, but she has to look – at the very least - put together, even via a simple outfit. A creative who's been exploring the arts since birth, she enjoys the process of building outfits that look and feel stylish, but don't overcomplicate. 'I like to maintain an organized, cohesive appearance that reflects both my personality and my lifestyle.'

Seif vs. Ali: Is It Innocent Romance or Cheating in Kamel El Adad++?
If you've watched the last two episodes of Kamel El Adad++, you probably noticed the drama heating up. The show never fails to tackle important social and family issues, and this time, it's giving us a closer look at Farida, played by Lina Sophia. It turns out this season she might be a little too interested in someone who is not her almost-official fiancé, Seif, played by Youssef Gabriel. Enter Ali, played by Youssef Omar, and suddenly, people are loving their dynamic. Cute? Maybe. But let's be real—this is textbook cheating. Somehow, the narrative at first glance made it look romantic, and honestly, that's where things get a little messy. Because no matter how you spin it, there is nothing cute about betrayal. We're not taking this too seriously, but let's be real—as invested as we are in this fictional (yet weirdly real) family, it's important to draw the line when it comes to relationships. Lately, it feels like the new generation is blurring the definitions of romance. Well, that's a bit concerning. There's no 'Seif vs. Ali' competition here. As much as we love Farida, let's call it what it is—sneaking around, lying, and choosing to be with someone else when you're already in a relationship is called cheating and nothing else. And while the storyline seems to be steering her back in the right direction in the upcoming episodes, we can all agree and say that you should be officially Team Seif, right?

NCW Report: 633 Scenes of Violence Against Women in Ramadan 2025 Shows
NCW Report: 633 Scenes of Violence Against Women in Ramadan 2025 Shows The Egyptian National Council for Women (NCW) has published a report analysing the portrayal of women across 39 Egyptian television series aired during Ramadan 2025. Conducted in collaboration with 238 students, along with researchers and faculty members from various public and private universities, the report offers a comprehensive review of the season's programming through media monitoring and analysis of press coverage. Among its findings, the report noted several positive developments. Nineteen series featured female protagonists with equal or more prominent roles than male counterparts. Some shows tackled pressing social issues affecting Egyptian women, such as labour rights in 'Hesbet Omry', digital blackmail and unpunished psychological abuse in 'Kamel El Adad', and sexual and domestic violence in 'Lam Shamseya'. These portrayals were generally well-received by viewers. Meanwhile, 'Seed El Nas' and 'El Atawla' were singled out for criticism due to their depictions of violence. The report also highlighted an evolving portrayal of stepmothers in Egyptian drama, with more layered and sympathetic representations appearing in series such as 'Kamel El Adad' and 'Alby We Moftaho'. However, the report flagged several areas of concern. It recorded 633 scenes depicting violence against women—ranging from physical and psychological abuse to digital harassment. Additionally, the NCW noted the prevalence of offensive language, sexual innuendo, and inappropriate content. The report criticised recurring tropes in which women were portrayed as weak, opportunistic, or, conversely, as possessive and domineering figures. Beyond television series, the report assessed the representation of women in advertising. Of 221 commercials aired during Ramadan, women featured in 202, often cast in roles such as doctors, entrepreneurs, and teachers. The report also monitored the role of women in broadcast media, noting an overall positive presence, despite some violations in programmes such as 'Ramez Gab Men El Akher', 'Crazy Woman', and 'Al Arafa'. In its conclusion, the NCW issued a series of recommendations aimed at encouraging more responsible storytelling. These include promoting balanced representations of women, expanding portrayals to include rural and Bedouin communities, and reducing the use of violence, sexualised content, and offensive language in mainstream media

Iconic Mothers We Loved and Got Attached to in Ramadan 2025
Mothers in Ramadan series always leave a lasting impression—whether they make us laugh, cry, or feel nostalgic. This year, we've seen a variety of mother figures, each with her own unique struggles and strengths. From the overprotective to the endlessly patient, these moms remind us of the many ways motherhood shapes our lives. Here are some of the most memorable on-screen mothers of Ramadan 2025. Amina Khalil – The Resilient Protector (Lam Shamsaya) Amina Khalil plays a mother whose love for her son is unconditional. She shields him from the hardships of life, standing as a strong and patient figure who will do anything to protect him. Her character embodies the strength, endurance, and deep love that define motherhood. Dina El Sherbiny – The Balanced Mom (Kamel El Adad) Dina El-Sherbiny in Kamel El Adad embodies a mother who balances warmth and structure. Raising a big family is no easy feat, but she does it with love, humor, and a clear set of rules. She's the kind of mom who keeps the household running smoothly while making sure her kids feel heard and supported. Sherine – The Overprotective Mother (Ashghal Shaqqa) Sherine's character is not the typical fun-loving mom—instead, she's a mother who loves her son so much that she can't imagine a life without him. Her protectiveness sometimes feels overbearing, but at its core, it stems from deep love and fear of losing the one person who means everything to her. Rania Youssef – The Hustling Mom (Nos El Shaab Esmo Mohamed) Rania Youssef's character represents mothers who do whatever it takes to provide for their children. She works hard to improve their lives, showing resilience and determination in the face of challenges. Her character is a tribute to all the mothers who sacrifice and strive to create a better future for their families. Which one do you relate to the most?
