ROUGH translation of the Arabic Wikipedia entry for "Tamer Hosny":

Tamer Hosni 'Abbas Fraghli is an Egyptian singer, composer and actor born on August 16, 1978 in Cairo.

Tamer was born to an Egyptian father and a Syrian mother. He graduated from the College of Information at October 6 University and began work as a technical consultant. While he was studying at the university, he sung at university concerts. At one concert he was singing a song "Say No," in the presence of Salma El Shamaa who was impressed with him and took him to see Mahros of Free Music and he signed a contract with them. He had a song "Shokli Haahobak" (roughly) which was his first record (or in this context, I guess "single" or "release") on a mixtape (I'm guessing, what I actually understand of it makes no sense unless it's referring to a mixtape). After that, he was on Sherine's mixtape (roughly) which had only one song and it was a duet with Mohamed Mounir, and the title was "Tamer and Sherine" (roughly) which achieved high record sales soon after being issued (VERY rough), which made him emerge as a high profile star (roughly) and his movie cassettes were very popular in a short time and he emerged as one of the most important stars in the the Arab nation and was nicknamed (something, can't tell). He had lots of exposure to obstacles in his beginning of his career including accusations of forgery to avoid military service and he went to prison and continued his career afterwards.

This doesn't make too much sense, since I was being a bit too literal, but hopefully it can be seen where the information connects to the English article. I felt like I had a deja vu where someone came and ripped my translation skills apart (and they'd be right to do so), so it's not 100% accurate but, as can be seen, there's a lot missing from the English version. He does appear to be notable though. Cheers, CP 19:49, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
