Egypt has always been a tourist-attraction spot for celebrities from all around the world; welcoming Beyonce, Sir Elton John, Vin Diesel and so many other high-profiles visitors over the years.

But in case you haven’t noticed, 2019 was particularly jam-packed with a number of iconic visits that we just had to record. Let’s take a look!

Katy Perry & Orlando Bloom

We all thought it was a rumor at first, but it was later confirmed. Pop sensation Katy Perry and her actor fiancee Orlando Bloom did visit Egypt last October. With all the Egyptian-allusions in her songs, it was due!

Natalie Emmanuel

Game of Thrones star Natalie Emmanuel dropped jaws last November when she decided to be the guest of honor at the Cairo International Film Festival’s closing ceremony. Thank you Missandai!

Red Hot Chili Peppers

2019 kicked off to a great start with the legendary American funk rock band coming to Egypt for the first time. It didn’t stop there, they gave a live performance in front of the Giza Pyramids!

Jennifer Lopez

Last August, the queen of stage J Lo blessed us with a visit to the North Coast. The concert, which was phenomenal by the way, was part of her “It’s My Party” tour.

Adriana Lima & Calvin Harris

Just earlier this December, Brazilian super-model Adriana Lima and Scottish DJ Calvin Harris made a remarkable appearance here. Loving the pants Cal!

Sergio Ramos

You probably forgot about this one, but Sergio Ramos did visit Egypt this year. He got to spend a few days last summer at our very own Hurghada and according to his Instagram, he loved it here!

Van Damme

Another legend, this time action legend, Van Damme came to Egypt this year and it wasn’t just for pleasure. He collaborated with our own Mohamed Ramadan on an advertising campaign!

Billy Zayne

Remember the villain from Titanic? His name is Billy Zayne and he was another guest at the Cairo International Film Festival 41st edition.

Mina Masoud

The Egyptian-Canadian star who played Disney’s Aladdin was the guest of honor as well but for the Gouna Film Festival this time!

Tamino

The grand-son of Moharam Fouad, Tamino who is a Belgian singer and model, payed his roots a visit this year and performed live at the Cairo-Jazz Club!

It was definitely a pleasure seeing all those stars here this year and we hope 2020 will attract more and more celebs!
