Looks like Lady Gaga has made an impression on the music world here in the Middle East as well!

Angham is supposedly dropping a new album soon and has even joined a new record label that goes by the name of "Basement Records"

We don't know about you guys, we're all for our stars being edgy, but when will we get over the copycat aspect, and start our own trends!

Check out the identical covers:

Fifteen years ago, people called Samih Sawiris insane when he unveiled his plans to build a luxury resort in the middle of the desert near Hurghada...

We remember people dismissing the project as an idiotic investment, that will get the Sawiris's no where...but look at it today (we do not to say much more)

Samih is planning on doing the same thing to a small Swiss Village, that he believes will one day rival Verbier as one of the world's top skiing destinations.

Call him crazy now, but we believe in this man's entrepreneurial skills...

Orascom Development Holding plans on spending approximately $1.5 Billion to build duluexe luxury hotels, golf courses, and ski slopes, in this once docile town.

Although it will cost you a pretty penny to get your hands on any real estate there, $1.1 million dollars for the cheapest unit...we admire all the doors that will be opened with regards to jobs for an already weak economy.

What will the Sawiris's be up to next, we'll all just have to wait and see..

If you've been watching any television at all this Ramadan, you have probably already seen this video on Tarek Nour's Kahera Wel Nas channel.

We've spoken about the band Digla before, and have featured some of their songs...We love their ability to mix east and west so easily together; the tabla, the video, it all comes together so perfectly.

Check out the "real version" of the video clip that a fan sent us...from the looks of it this will become a hit quickly.

You can pick up their cd from any Diwan store!

Check out a sneak peak at Saks Fifth Avenue Dubai's fall/winter ad campaign "I'm going to Saks"!

Saks is located in Burjuman mall.

We can't wait to see the whole thing! What do you guys think so far?

We have quite unfortunate news Cairo one of our favorite Art Galleries Hanfaninha in Zamalek, has closed its doors.

Exact reasons as to why the studio will be shutting down, are not yet clear...but we're sure it has something to do with the artsy world in Egypt lacking the appreciation and clientele that is needed to keep the place going.

Either way some of us at S&H have bought some great pieces from there!

Which of Cairo's eligible bachelors was just at the 62nd Emmy Awards?

Think one of the managing partners of one of Cairo's hot spots, also known for putting together a Bootylicious concert by the Red Sea...

Come on Cairo, if you can't get this one...we don't know what to say!

The Fairmont Nile City has been on a roll this Ramadan with their charitable causes...looks like they're one of the few places that have grasped the essence of this month..

This Wednesday the 1st of September, Cairo 360 and the Fairmont have teamed up to entertain all of Bab el Nil's guests for a good cause...The Percussion show, Eftekasat, and Masar Egbari, are just a few of the people who will be popping by.

Again all proceeds from the night go to Operation Smile.

Are you guys feeling charitable?
