Houssem

At Elite Model Look we say: “your differences make our world”. What makes you different?

I think I have my own way of thinking and acting. How I choose to live my life sets me apart.

What is your passion?

I have always dreamed of becoming a famous actor! I used to be in a theatre club when I was 14, I enjoyed every second. What I love about acting is being able to truly express myself.

Inspirational quote: This one is from an Algerian singer: ''As long as I have health and I can breath and kneel, I will fight until I became old''. This one helps me to succeed.

Model: I really liked Davidson and Marie from the Elite Model Look World Final 2016. Davidson has a unique charisma, and Marie has a beautiful, calm face.

Sport: I play football and basketball with my friends, and I go to the gym.

Actor: I have two favourite actors, Leonardo DiCaprio and Al Pacino, for me they take it another level, their facial expressions, their taste in roles and personality. 

What is the best holiday you have ever been on?

The best holiday I ever have been on is last summer in Paris , it's a magical city!

What’s the best thing anyone’s ever said to you?

''I see something in you''.

If you could go anywhere in the world – where you haven’t already been – where would you go?

I would go to Cuba, because it's a natural and simple place.

How does it feel to represent Tunisia at the 35th Elite Model Look World Final?

I’m very proud of myself for being the Winner of EML Tunisia 2018, it was an unforgettable experience which taught me so many things as patience and how to focus on your goals. My mother gave me incredible support throughout the process, she always gives me positive energy! I’m looking forward to the World Final to see what level I can get to next in this adventure, and to reach my real potential. So far, I have already learned how important it is to be self confident! I never thought about modelling, but I have always loved fashion, which is why I decided to take part. My friends were always asking me about where I buy my clothes.

Tell us about Tunisia!

Tunisia is famous for its ancient history and charming scenery. I’m proud of my country, because it is the first Arabic country which granted many women rights and has so many achievements that distinguishes it from others.
