Ahmed Helmy is Officially an "Arabs Got Talent" 3rd Season Judge!

It's official. Ahmed Helmy has signed with MBC to replace Nasser Al Qashy as a judge on the Arab talent show for its third season. He'll be joining Lebanese Nagwa Karem and the Lebanese presenter Ali Gaber.

There were a number of reports recently indicating a deal was in the works. Outlets reported on negotiations between Helmy and MBC, particularly since he had been invited as a special guest to Beirut last week, specifically last Friday, where he attended an episode of " Arab Idol" behind the scenes, after which he met with a group of MBC officials to hammer out the details of the deal.

It seems like Helmy was able to hit two birds with one stone, as he also took the opportunity to lock down MBC to exclusively air his show " Asia" this coming Ramadan. The show is produced by Helmy and stars his wife, actress Mona Zaky.
