Shark Sighting, Skincare Chaos & Star Scandals: Cairo’s Tuesday Drama Just Hit Deep Waters ☕🚗🦈


Good morning ya Qaheraaaa! 🌇 It’s Tuesday — breathe in, sip that coffee, and remember... the week is still young! ☕ But Cairo? Cairo doesn’t sleep, and the tea is piping hot this morning. Here’s what’s got the city buzzing:
☕ Skincare or Scare-care? Tia Zakher’s Caveman Method Sparks Online Meltdown
TikTok’s beauty community is in chaos, and it’s all thanks to Tia Zakher — the 22-year-old creator who’s taken “natural beauty” to a whole new (and honestly, shocking) level. The no-soap, no-water skin routine has the internet divided between “OMG skin goals” and “please no, girl.” The comment section? A battlefield.
🚗 Drama unfolds in Nour El Nabawy’s hit-and-run case
New developments have emerged in the hit-and-run incident involving young Egyptian actor Nour El Nabawy, which left an Electricity Company employee with a broken leg. The victim’s lawyer, Amr El Kady, spilled all the tea in a fiery phone interview on MBC Masr's "Kalam El Nas" — and let’s just say, things aren’t looking good for the actor. Ghosting? Ignoring calls? Requests for a drug test? The plot thickens.

Skincare or Scare-care? Tia Zakher’s Caveman Method Sparks Online Meltdown
TikTok’s beauty community is in chaos, and it’s all thanks to Tia Zakher — the 22-year-old creator who’s taken “natural beauty” to a whole new (and honestly, shocking) level.
Tia’s been going viral for ditching ALL skincare products — yes, even water — in what’s called the “Caveman Method.” She claims she’s letting her skin heal itself after years of over-exfoliation, and shows off her raw, peeling, visibly inflamed face as part of the journey. Her followers? Shook. Divided. And VERY vocal.
Some are calling her a “skincare warrior” while others are screaming “girl, this is dangerous!” Dermatologists have chimed in too, warning that skipping basic cleansing can lead to some serious skin conditions (think dermatitis neglecta — Google at your own risk 👀).
To make the tea hotter, people are speculating hard — accusing her of faking it, hiding laser treatments, or even exaggerating for clout. Despite the noise, Tia’s standing her ground, saying this is part of her “purging phase” and that she might reintroduce water soon.
But the beauty experts? They’re begging the internet not to romanticize extreme trends and to stick to the basics: cleanse, moisturize, SPF. Period.
Moral of the story? TikTok’s skincare girlies love drama as much as a double cleanse. And Tia Zakher? She’s right at the messy center of it.
LOVIN CELEB NEWS
Nour El Nabawy Accused of Hit-and-Run Scandal
New developments have emerged in the hit-and-run incident involving young Egyptian actor Nour El Nabawy, which resulted in a broken leg for an Egyptian Electricity Company employee.
Amr El Kady, the victim's lawyer, revealed all the details during a phone call on the "Kalam El Nas" program on MBC Masr.
He stated that after the accident, the young actor spoke politely with the victim, asking about his condition and his family, and assured him that he would stay by his side until the matter was resolved.
Afterward, Nour El Nabawy contacted his assistants, who arrived quickly and asked the actor to leave, promising they would stay with the employee until everything was settled.
The lawyer explained that the assistants never saw Nour El Nabawy again, and when they offered to take the victim to the hospital, he told them he had medical insurance that would cover his treatment.
Then the financial negotiations began, with the assistants initially offering 50,000 EGP, which later increased to 150,000 EGP after they learned the treatment would take six months.
The lawyer approached the victim, Wael Samir, and urged him to file an official police report against the actor, but the victim refused, saying he had given his word to the actor and would not file a report.
However, what happened next was unexpected — Nour El Nabawy and his assistants disappeared and stopped answering phone calls. The lawyer commented, "They didn’t pay a single pound... This is the first time I see a defendant chasing clout."
The lawyer confirmed that he and his client filed an official complaint against Nour El Nabawy on Saturday.
He also stated that he would demand a drug test for the young actor, given rumors that his behavior at the time of the accident was erratic.
Before ending the call, the lawyer addressed Nour El Nabawy directly, saying: "You still have the chance to resolve this matter."
