Tamer Hosny To Quit Singing Acting? I Hope So!

It's no secret that Tamer Hosny is not the star he used to be just last year. He did himself a great damage by getting involved in politics. He has made some music and entertained many, sure some of his work is silly cheesy, idiotic, but he made money and captured headlines.



While, I liked some of his songs, I never liked his music videos becasue he seems like a diva in all of them. Some of the songs I liked for him were stolen from other songs, so his original stuff is not that good and his good songs are unoriginal. He has never been the great actor he is, but his movies were often entertaining.



Now, I am reading reports about Tamer Hosny considering retirement form acting and singing. In an interview for Oyoon Ala Al Fan for Al Ahram newspaper, he is now saying he is considering retirement becasue he feels he is fighting too many wars and there are too many Tamer Hosny hates out there.



While I do not think he will retire anytime soon- there's simply too much money involved and too many projects are dependent on him singing, dancing and acting, I do think that his absence will allow for better music to be made. Just look at all those stellar indie bands coming form Egypt talking about real life issues and making some original and fine music. Tamer can only talk about one thing girlfriends. While this is an important matter for teens in high school, most of the country worries about other things now.



In this era he cannot be shoved in people's faces to talk about his lady trouble. He clearly has been rejected by the conservatives of Egypt since the day he started singing. the youth of Tahrir also rejected him too. In fact anyone with a brain has said no to this guy being an empty entertainer who lives a fancy life and only acts in his movies like a poor person.



I think Tamer Hosny served a purpose and made the youth busy distracting them from real issues. He might be well served to take a break and think about his life. The imaginary Facebook fans of his will cry and make it sound like this world is coming to an end with his departure. When in reality everything is just fine. That break might help him make a comeback that's if he is really missed by anyone.





P.S. Nothing personal Tamer, Happy Birthday Tamer Hosny, it was your birthday on August 16th!
