QCEG: “What inspired you to explore the topic of witchcraft and secret rituals in your book?”
 
SIMO BEN: “As a child, these stories of black magic fascinated and terrified me equally. They were whispered in hushed tones, as if speaking too loudly about them would invite the dark forces into our lives. I remember sitting wide-eyed, listening to my grandmother recount tales of jinn possession and curses that could turn a person's life upside down.”
“In Moroccan society, belief in the supernatural was deeply ingrained. It was not uncommon for people to consult spiritual healers or seek protection from evil spirits. Many believed that black magic could be used to gain power or settle personal vendettas. The line between reality and superstition often blurred, leaving an air of uncertainty hanging over everyday life. But it wasn't until the story of "The Deflowerer," which is my book's first chapter, that I realized that the true extent of black magic's prevalence became apparent to me. The story unfolded with vivid descriptions of rituals performed under cover of darkness, where individuals sought to manipulate the natural order for their own gain. It revealed a hidden face of Moroccan society.”

     
 

QCEG: “What motivated you to shed light specifically on the entertainment industry's involvement with witchcraft in Morocco?
 
SIMO BEN: “Absolutely! No one and I mean absolutely no one, wanted me to unleash this explosive exposé upon the world. It's like a cultural taboo that Moroccans are desperately trying to sweep under the rug. Scandals are practically a daily occurrence in Morocco, but the moment it becomes an international affair, they suddenly take it personally and go into full-on denial mode. It's like they're playing a game of "hide and seek" with the truth, but we all know what's really going on behind closed doors. It's an open secret that these shenanigans happen among Moroccans, but their resistance is fueled by their burning desire to maintain a squeaky-clean international image.”
“Let me tell you, I've had to face an army of crazy YouTubers, paid bloggers, and all sorts of characters who would stop at nothing to halt my mission. They've resorted to spreading outrageous lies about me, causing me endless headaches with legal troubles, and whatnot. But guess what? Good news, my friends! No matter how determined they are, my book has triumphantly made its way into the world, unscathed and unstoppable.”
“Now, let me take a moment to count my blessings for being here for the good of the US. You see, some of my fellow journalist comrades back in Morocco are rotting away behind bars, thanks to some trumped-up charges conveniently created just for them. It's like a twisted game of cat and mouse, where the truth-tellers are the ones paying the price.”
“But fear not, my witty comrades! The truth shall prevail, and I'm here to ensure it does so with a dash of humour and a sprinkle of sarcasm. So buckle up, because we're about to embark on a wild ride through the murky world of Moroccan scandals, where the truth is stranger than fiction and the cover-ups are as thick as the Moroccan mint tea. Let's expose the secrets...!”

     
 

QCEG: “How did your collaboration with the prominent sorcerer influence your decision to write this book?”
 
SIMO BEN: “During one of my encounters with the enigmatic Rkia, she divulged a treasure trove of information that left me utterly astounded. Not only did this revelation captivate the international media outlet I was working for, but it also left an indelible impression on me. However, despite the sheer brilliance of the story surrounding black magic, my assigned media outlet decided not to pursue it. Can you believe it? I had painstakingly gathered a plethora of stories, conducted interviews, and gained unprecedented insight into this mystical realm, only to have it discarded like yesterday's news.”
“But let me tell you, the revelations I stumbled upon were nothing short of mind-blowing. They were so shocking and eye-opening that I simply couldn't bear to let all my hard work go to waste. Especially when you consider the fact that my media overlords had no interest in local celebrities as if nobody beyond the boundaries of the third world knew or cared about them. So, armed with determination and a dash of audacity, I embarked on a mission to bring these extraordinary tales to light. I refused to let the brilliance of Rkia's secrets fade into obscurity. After all, who could resist the allure of a world steeped in magic and mystery? It was time to unleash these captivating stories upon an audience hungry for something truly extraordinary.”
“With each passing day, my resolve grew stronger. I would not be deterred by the narrow-mindedness of those who failed to recognize the allure of the unknown. No, I would forge my own path, weaving a narrative that would leave readers spellbound and craving for more. The world deserved to know the hidden wonders that lay beyond the veil of familiarity.”

     
 

QCEG: “Can you discuss any personal transformations or shifts in your own beliefs that occurred during the process of researching and writing.”
 
SIMO BEN: “To begin with, much like any other Moroccan, I was well aware of the existence of black magic and its integral role in our culture. However, my understanding of it was rather superficial. But yes, did my research blow my mind? It turns out that black magic is not just some obscure practice, but a thriving industry. People are raking in massive amounts of cash, and let me tell you, it was a real eye-opener to witness the sheer extent of its prevalence in our culture. It's like a secret underworld of sorcery and sorcerers, making bank while casting spells. Who would've thought, right?”

     
 

QCEG: “Were there any challenges or obstacles you faced while researching and writing about this subject?”
 
SIMO BEN: “When I excitedly spilt the beans about my latest project to my pals, they immediately started raining on my parade. They warned me about the potential backlash, claiming that I would be exposing our precious cultural secrets or even inviting some supernatural wrath upon myself. But let me tell you, the real reason behind their discouragement was crystal clear - there were some shady characters in my inner circle dabbling in the dark arts, and they definitely didn't want me shining a spotlight on their mischievous activities, especially not for an international audience.”
“Now, let me spill the tea on the whole research and writing journey.. Trust me, penning a book is no walk in the park. And when you add the extra layer of people desperately trying to keep you away from uncovering the truth about this subject, it becomes a whole new level of challenge. They were like a bunch of pesky mosquitoes buzzing around, constantly trying to swat away my curiosity. But guess what? I persevered. I faced their discouragement head-on and emerged victorious.”
“And now, behold! The fruit of my labour is out there for the world to devour. This book, my magnum opus, is a testament to my unwavering determination and the triumph of shedding light on the shadows. So, to all those naysayers and black magic enthusiasts lurking in the shadows, I say, "Sorry, not sorry!" The truth shall prevail, my friends and it's about time the world knows what's really going on.”

     
 

QCEG: “Were you shocked when you discovered people that you knew personally visiting the witch?”
 
SIMO BEN: “To be perfectly frank, I must say I wasn't exactly flabbergasted. In our culture, seeking the guidance of witches and sorceresses is quite commonplace, so the element of surprise was rather minimal. However, what truly left me astounded was the exorbitant amounts of money people are willing to pour into the dark arts just to wreak havoc on others. My forthcoming book is brimming with captivating tales that illustrate this phenomenon, but I wouldn't want to spoil the suspense for you just yet.”

QCEG: “Did you uncover any surprising or shocking revelations during your undercover mission that motivated you to share these secrets with readers?”

SIMO BEN: “Within the realm of Sneaky Showbiz, a treasure trove of astonishing tales awaits. However, what truly left me flabbergasted was the realization that many Moroccan celebrities owe their success not to their innate talent, but rather to the enchantments they weave upon industry insiders, cunningly acquiring whatever their hearts desire.”

     
 

QCEG: “What measures did you take to ensure the authenticity and accuracy of the information presented in your book, given the secretive nature of the subject matter?”
 
SIMO BEN: “I trust that young readers and the upcoming generation, who are utterly fixated on becoming influencers, realize that not all celebrities achieve success solely due to their talent. Rather, it is their shrewd investment of both money and time into enchanting those individuals responsible for making crucial business decisions within the entertainment industry.”
“Now, let's sprinkle some wit into this:”
“Dear young readers and future influencers, gather 'round! It's time to unveil a little secret about the glitzy world of celebrities. Brace yourselves, for not all those famous faces owe their triumphs solely to their extraordinary talents. Oh no, my friends! It's a tale of cunning investments, where money and time are cleverly channelled into casting spells upon the decision-makers of the entertainment industry.”
“Picture this: a dazzling celebrity strutting down the red carpet, captivating the masses with their charm and talent. But behind the scenes, hidden from prying eyes, lies a secret weapon. It's not just their talent that propels them to stardom; it's their mastery of the mystical arts of influence. These savvy stars know that success isn't just about honing their craft; it's about bewitching the very people who hold the keys to their dreams.”
“So, "Dear readers", let this be a lesson in the art of showbiz sorcery. The next time you find yourself mesmerised by a celebrity's rise to fame, remember that there's more to the story than meets the eye. It's a world where spells are cast, and fortunes are made by those who dare to invest their resources wisely. Talent alone may open doors, but it's the enchantment of decision-makers that truly sets the stage for superstardom.”
“Now, go forth, armed with this newfound knowledge, and let your own journey to influence be guided by a touch of wit, a sprinkle of charm, and a dash of enchantment. May you cast your spells wisely, my aspiring influencers, and may you succeed.”

     
 

QCEG: “What would you personally advise people to do if they feel that they have been a subject of black magic?”
 
SIMO BEN: “To embark on this mystical journey, one must first seek the expertise of a seasoned sorceress. Ah, the enigmatic realm of this industry! Residing in Morocco, one must be wary of those mischievous souls who may cast spells upon you. Thus, it becomes imperative to consult a "healer" who can safeguard you with a potent protection spell. Yet, even amidst the untamed wilderness, one may inadvertently stumble upon spells not intended for their being, yet still capable of meddling with their energy. Alas, dear wanderer, once you enter the sorcery world, there is no escape from its captivating grasp.”

     
 

QCEG: How can people protect themselves against spells?
 
SIMO BEN: “According to R'kia, the remarkable Moroccan sorceress who unveiled the secrets of Black Magic to me, the ultimate shield against malevolent forces lies in Jewish protection. In my captivating exposé, Sneaky Showbiz, I delve into the extraordinary tale of Rabbi Abraham, a revered figure in Morocco renowned for safeguarding the crème de la crème of Moroccan society.”
“Now, let me regale you with the enchanting account of R'kia, the sorceress extraordinaire. Picture this: a mystical figure, draped in vibrant robes, her eyes sparkling with ancient wisdom. She revealed to me the hidden power of Jewish protection, a force so potent it could repel even the most nefarious of enchantments. But wait, there's more! Enter Rabbi Abraham, the guardian angel of Morocco's elite. This charismatic figure has become the talk of the town, as his mystical prowess has shielded countless luminaries from the clutches of dark magic. From the dazzling stars of showbiz to the influential moguls of society, Rabbi Abraham has emerged as their trusted shield against the forces of evil.”
“Now, I know what you're thinking - how does this Jewish protection work its magic? Well, my dear reader, it's a tantalizing secret that I'm about to unveil. Through ancient rituals and sacred incantations, Rabbi Abraham weaves a web of mystical energy, creating an impenetrable fortress around those fortunate enough to seek his aid. It's like having a personal force field against the supernatural!”
“So, if you find yourself in need of some supernatural security, look no further than the captivating world of Jewish protection. Let Rabbi Abraham be your guide through the labyrinth of enchantments, and rest assured that you'll be shielded from the darkest of sorcery. After all, when it comes to safeguarding the crème de la crème of Moroccan society, only the best will do.”

     
 

QCEG: “Can a spell backfire?”
 
SIMO BEN: “Ah, the classic self-soothing mantra we all whisper to ourselves, shielding our delicate emotions. It's akin to those cliché motivational quotes that promise "karma's a b*tch" and will eventually catch up with you. But let's face it, I've come across a horde of despicable individuals who have committed heinous acts and yet roam freely. Back in my hometown, folks love to reassure me that these malevolent souls will face divine retribution in the afterlife. What a shame, really. As if that could ever undo the irreparable damage they've inflicted upon innocent lives.”

 
 

QCEG: “What lasting impact do you hope your book will have on readers' understanding and perception of Moroccan witchcraft? Do you anticipate any potential societal changes or conversations that may result from its publication?”
 
SIMO BEN: “First of all, it'll be an eye-opener for people who are a part of the entertainment industry. Many want to know how this small group of people make it to the top without having any talent. For example, we have some Moroccan singers in the Middle East with a catalogue of only 3 songs, but they own some of the most expensive apartments in the Middle East. How in the world is that possible? Black magic is the culprit. They use it to charm the CEOs and get their contracts signed on the spot. Others who go the more traditional route have to wait until they die to even dream of getting a contract signed. Again, I don't want to spoil any of the stories in the book, but Sneaky Showbiz is opening the door for a conversation about these kinds of practices used by "fake influencers" who are influencing the younger generation.”
“Sneaky Showbiz has reached an international audience with its publication in the USA and France, and it is conveniently available for purchase on Amazon. Whether you're in the United States or France, you can easily get your hands on this captivating book through Amazon's online platform. Happy reading! Dare you”
