While it's unacceptable that El-Sherif expressed homophobia in defending himself, the irresponsible media in Egypt are fast and loose with the facts. It's unlikely El-Sherif was caught in some kind of sordid sex ring at the Semiramis and, to boot, the "network" was, in some Arabic sources, supposedly a foreign gay sex network, further entrenching the idea that same-sex sexuality is a foreign import to Egypt. Nonsensical. Mr Farid has a point. While it’s unacceptable that El-Sherif expressed homophobia in defending himself, the irresponsible media in Egypt are fast and loose with the facts.

SHAME ON YOU QUEERTY missing the whole point

Mr Naga and Mr El Sherif have been falsely accused by some extremists in order to diminish their role in affecting public opinion to human rights

The newspaper (tabloid) known to make up stories to sell more and famous for its links to extremist views,
The news source is allegedly a police informant who fabricated details that never happened to diminish the artists’ popularity
They claimed that the artists are being prosecuted as members of a gay prostitution ring! in a Hotel Semiramis Intercontinental ,
For their bad luck the main two stars happened to be out of Egypt at the time of their claims

moreover: when the artists found out about the rumor, the filed a report to The Attorney general prosecutor
later the The Attorney general prosecutor made a statement that NONE of the allegations is true! and ordered the journalists to be investigated and later they are being sued now by the artists and the state and the Hotel they claimed it all happened

Queerty: check your sources before attacking human rights activists being framed by islamists in Egypt

its all been very clear all over the Arabic net sources:

Nour el Sherif and Hamdi el Wazir are both old. The "Tom Cruise" one is Khaled Aboul Naga - and he is very attractive. If they are gay (and this is a big if), the repercussions of far greater than it would be in America. It is far easier AND safer to just say you aren't gay and maybe thrown in some homophobia for good measure to keep yourself safe.

This guy saying that suggesting there's homosexuality in the world of egyptian arts is an insult to their dignity. Yeah, right! Because we all know how "hetero" the artistic world is.
