Egyptian prominent singer Yusra denies circulating rumors that she has gotten a divorce from her second husband over disputes that had been going on for some time, and resulted in a quiet separation between them. Yusra also denies rumors that she is involved in a new affair with young Egyptian actor Ahmad Izz El Din, who costarred with her in the Ramadan TV drama series “Malak Rouhi” (King of My Soul). 

 

According to the London based magazine, Sayitdaty, Yusra stressed that she is outraged over the rumors that have been created saying she does not know where people come up with such senseless gossip. She added that she is still married to her husband, Khalid Salim, and the two are enjoying a very happy and stable marriage. 

 

Yusra noted that she is convinced that the rumors keep occurring due to the success she has been enjoying in her acting career, and people, who are spiteful, are just trying to cause problems and hurt her in any way. 

 

Yusra has announced that she will be taking part in the production of a new film “I3tirafat Zawja” (A Wife’s Confessions), which had faced so many problems in its making. Yusra also revealed that she will be starring in the leading role of the film alongside prominent Egyptian actor Ahmad Zaki. Yusra will also be receiving a portion of the profits from the new film once it is out in cinema houses. It was revealed that many actresses had turned down the leading role in the film, which is directed by Rafat Al Muhaimi, due to the many intimate and seductive scenes it contains. The film tackles marital problems faced by couples, discussing very deep and intimate details of marriage life.  

 

Yusra has been witnessing ongoing success for her achievements in the acting world, whether on the big screen or on television. The actress has won many awards for her roles in different works, proving herself to be on top of some of the most prominent actors in the Arab world.  

 

In a personal interview held with Yusra, she expressed that she can relate herself with the young generation of actors and directors very easily, due to the fact that despite her age she is a young child at heart. The actress revealed that she finds working with the younger generation to be a very challenging experience that calls for her to be daring and makes her forget that an age gap exists.  

 

Yusra stressed that she is not afraid to express a woman’s feelings and needs on the screen, and who is not pressured by the restrictions placed by the community. For this reason, she finds working with Egyptian controversial director Enas Al Deghaidi to be very interesting and has in fact acted in four different films directed by Enas. Yusra noted that she considers Enas as the sister she never has and cherishes her relationship with her saying it is based on trust and love.  

 

Yusra has lately become one of the hottest actresses wanted for numerous advertising commercials by different internationally known companies. The actress has witnessed so much popularity throughout her acting career that companies feel she is the best candidate for their commercials.  

 

The actress has recently signed a contract with the American Network Company Showtime to be the star of their advertising campaign in the Arab world. Yusra has already completed a number of TV commercials that are being advertised on Showtime’s Arabic channels and intends on appearing in more. –Albawaba.com
