Meet Gihan El Shamashergy: Egypt's Rising Star in Jewelry & Creativity ✨

With her perky playful energy, Gihan El Shamashergy pours spontaneity into everything she does, from jewellery design to being one of Egypt’s most promising emerging actors.

A diamond in the rough, the jeweller’s acting career found its start in ‘Le’bet El Nesyan’ in Ramadan 2020. Over the next two years she’s shown up in ‘Hekayat Banat’, Shahid’s ‘Nemra Etnen’, and the Egyptian remake of ‘Girlfriends’ Guide To Divorce’, ‘Kawa’ed El Talaa’’.

In Ramadan 2022 El Shamsashergy found her biggest role alongside iconic actress Youssra in ‘Ahlam Saeeda’, alongside a powerful cameo in the Arabic remake of ‘Suits’.

For our new #CairoScene series The Ones to Watch, we caught up with the emerging actress to talk about rebellious haircuts, untamed curls and a certain heartbreak-induced Aswan escape... and of course her ever-expanding career aspirations.
