Life and career


Tamer Hosny was born in Cairo to an Egyptian father and Syrian mother. Unlike his father, Hosny Sherif Abbas, Tamer Hosny grew up with an interest in football and played the sport for five years.[3]
Tamer Hosny had his first directorial experience in 2010 when directing his music video "Sa7eet 3la Sotha". Tamer had a long-held ambition to become a director and to make his own music video.[4]
Hosny starred in the 2003 Egyptian film Halet Hob (A State of Love).[5] In 2006, he was arrested for forging military papers to avoid serving in the army. He received a one-year prison sentence, yet he only stayed in jail for six months.[6]


In 2012 he released "Omar & Salma 3", the third sequel to the Omar & Salma films.
Hosny has frequently stated that he was not satisfied with the film. In a recent interview on the Set El Hosn program, he admitted that "I'm not happy with how the movie turned out, although many people love it and it was a box office success. I don't blame anyone else for that, I take responsibility for it. We had to make major plot changes due to financial reasons."[7]


After three years away from the movie industry, he released Ahwak alongside Ghada Adel and Ahmed Malek. It is a romantic comedy about a young plastic surgeon who falls in love with a divorced woman.
The film was a success at the box office, with total revenue of 22 million Egyptian pounds.[8]


In 2017, Hosny released Tesbah ala kher (Good Night), a comedy drama about a wealthy entrepreneur who suffers from depression and hallucinations.
Falcon films - the company responsible for distributing the movie in the Arab world - released an official statement saying that the movie has topped the box office in the Arab world.[9][10]



Drama


During Ramadan 2011, Hosny starred in the television drama Adam. Directed by Mohammad Samy, the drama also featured Dina Fouad, Ahmed Zaher and Mai Izz Aldin. This series achieved Big Success and high views on YouTube and won best series in 2011 in many votes[11] His next film Omar & Salma 3 is scheduled to release in November during the Eid al-Adha holiday.[12]



Collaborations


During two years Tamer Hosny had discovered more than 20 new talents in lyric writing and composing, over 5 new singers, more than 10 new talented actors, and Mohamed Sami as a Drama and Cinema director "Director of his series Adam".[13]


Tamer sang Bokra "Tomorrow (A Better You, Better Me)" a charity single that was released on 11/11/2011 at 11:11PM, along with Rim Banna, Akon, Diana Karazon, Marwan Khoury, Latifa, Souad Massi, Hani Mitwasi, Saber Rebaï, Kathem Al-Saher, Waed, Sherine and other Arab Artists. The single will distribute the proceeds of its donations to various organisations, institutions and charities with arts and culture programs. The eight-minute song was written by Majida El Roumi, and produced by Quincy Jones and RedOne. More information about the song can be found on official website of the song.


Tamer Hosny has recorded a new duet song with Shaggy, named "Smile". The song, written and composed by Tamer Hosny, will be distributed all over the world. The music video has been released at the beginning of 2012; the music video was shot in New York City, and it has achieved huge success; it has achieved more than one million views in only 3 days on YouTube, and for this exceptional growth rate, YouTube awarded the music video a trending medal.[14]


Tamer decided to make his Egyptian/Arab identity present in these collaborations, So he made Snoop Dogg appear in their music video wearing Egyptian traditional cloths known as Jellabiya and also wrote Snoop's name in Arabic on the car appearing in the video.[15]



Stage and live performances


Because of Tamer's famous charismatic stage presence and creativity, his fans now call him "King of the stage". In an interview with Sherihan Abu Al Hassan on her program Set El Hosn, Tamer said that he doesn't pay much attention to the titles given to him by the fans like "King of generation" although he does appreciate the "King of the stage" title due to his efforts to improve the stage appearance in Egypt. "I'm no king, I'm not a fan of titles at all, I only appreciate the fact that my efforts to improve Egypt's stage appearance are acknowledged by the fans " he said, "My favorite title is just being called an Egyptian Arab artist when performing abroad."[16]



Personal life


Tamer Hosny married Star Academy contestant and Moroccan singer Bassma Boussel in 2012. They have 2 daughters: Talyia and Amaya.


He is an endorser of the soft drink Pepsi.[17] He was also the "First Arab Celebrity" to advertise the Police brand of sunglasses.[18]
