🌟 Noor Hisham Selim and the Rumors
Noor addressed the long-standing rumors about marrying Fifi Abdo’s granddaughter, stating with a smile: “I don’t know where people come up with these stories!” On why he did not pursue acting despite studying it, he added: “It’s normal to study one thing and work in another… I feel I became known in my own way as Hisham Selim’s son.”
💫 Gender Transition and Personal Journey
Through Instagram Stories, Noor shared details of his gender transition from Nora to Noor, describing the first moment he saw himself in the mirror as “unexplainable, like being in the middle of the sea without a motor, then suddenly seeing New York as a masterpiece.” He said the decision wasn’t easy, but he finally felt he found himself after years of uncertainty.
💬 Challenges in the Arab World
Noor revealed the hardships he faced: losing his father, lover, and friend, and living with official documents still marking him as female. He moved to Portugal due to the lack of acceptance in Egyptian society. He explained: “In the Arab world, a girl transitioning to a boy is more accepted than a boy transitioning to a girl, which is very unfair.”
🌈 Advocacy for LGBTQ+ Rights
In a new video, Noor expressed his support for LGBTQ+ rights, highlighting the case of Sarah Hegazy, saying: “If someone accepts me but not Sarah Hegazy, they are hypocrites… we need humanity.” He stressed that personal beliefs shouldn’t be imposed on others, and everyone deserves freedom of choice.
