DUBAI: Moroccan Egyptian Dutch model Imaan Hammam shared a carousel of highlights from December on Instagram, including her international trips and a photo of her time in Amsterdam. She also dined with Sudanese Canadian poet Mustafa Ahmed, formerly known as Mustafa the Poet, this weekend, ahead of the charity concert he is organizing for Gaza and Sudan on Jan. 4. For the latest updates, follow us on Instagram @arabnews.lifestyle The creative talent, who goes by the stage name Mustafa, shared a short video of the pair sitting at a restaurant on Instagram Stories, prompting online speculation that Hammam — who has been vocal about the conflict on social media — will attend the concert slated to take place in New Jersey. British rapper and songwriter Stormzy joined a long list of stars who will perform at the benefit concert. All the proceeds will go to Human Concern International, an NGO that provides humanitarian aid to Gaza and Sudan. Stormzy will be joined by US performers Clairo, Faye Webster, Omar Apollo, Nick Hakim, 070Shake and 6lack. Also in attendance will be Canadian music sensations Charlotte Day Wilson and Daniel Caesar, Palestinian writer and poet Mohammed El-Kurd, Mustafa, and US-Egyptian comedian Ramy Youssef. “We worked tirelessly to bring this to you, but our fatigue is not even a splinter of what we’ll be singing for,” Mustafa wrote on Instagram. “In the last few years I visited both my homeland, Sudan and Palestine. My visit to both had a principal intention, to connect with artist communities, with young organizers — for parallels of sorrow and hope and faith.” “The violence in both nations seized the dream,” he added. “Here it is revived for me in some way. The intention remains, on this evening we give our voices to make room for theirs. I want to thank each artist performing from the deepest part of me, for your time and effort. None of you hesitated when asked. We’ll remember.” Mustafa has written songs for The Weeknd, Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello. Hammam, who was born to a Moroccan mother and an Egyptian father in the Netherlands, is an ambassador for the She’s The First organization that helps empower young women through education around the world. She is also a runway mainstay and has appeared on the catwalk for major fashion houses such as Burberry, Fendi, Prada, Marc Jacobs, Moschino, Balenciaga and Carolina Herrera. The model has also starred in international campaigns for DKNY, Celine, Chanel, Versace, Givenchy, Giorgio Armani, and Tiffany & Co and more.
