MACEDONIAN GIRL OF 1001 NIGHTS


Entertainment.

This is actually an article of ours from October, however because of the great interest we got about it, we've posted this article yet again, enjoy!

How many of you know this girl? I bet no one unless you are living in Holland.
Macedonia Daily presents: "Touriya Haoud" This girl, born in the Netherlands to a Macedonian mother and a Moroccan father is an actress, model and singer. Not just an actress, model or singer but a succesfull one too!

A friend of Touriya made her participate in a modeling contest. Touriya not only won, but also from that moment on, she never looked back. She became a model for Tommy Hilfiger, Replay, posed in Playboy, Maxim and made commercials for Campari and TIM, Italy's leading telecom network where Naomi Campbell was her predecessor.

Inbetween her modeling, Touriya took various acting classes and landed a lead role in the popular Dutch television series "Hartslag", the Dutch version of ER, soon followed by her movie debut in the Dutch movie "Shouf Shouf Habibi" wich was not only accepted to the prestigious Berlin Film Festival, but was also honored with the Public Choice Award.

In 2005 she went to Hollywood where she got a role in her first U.S. movie, "Five Fingers" and soon she will be seen in the movie "Prisoners of the Sun".


MD: She is probably the only or one of the few Macedonian(s) in Hollywood and not known at all among our people. And Oh yeah, she is married to American actor Greg Vaughan. :(
