Meryem Uzerli is a Turkish–German actor and model, best known for portraying Hürrem Sultan in one of the most successful Turkish series of all time, 'Muhteşem Yüzyıl' ('The Magnificent Century'). The role marked her debut in the Turkish entertainment industry and has brought her numerous awards and accolades. However, Meryem started her journey as an actor with German short films and TV shows. She has been seen in German short films such as 'Journey of No Return' (2010) and 'Jetzt Aber Ballett' (2010). Meryem has been featured in many advertising campaigns and has been the face of numerous brands. It was unfortunate for her to leave her breakthrough project, 'Muhtesem Yüzyil,' because of health reasons. She made a comeback and was seen in several other projects, but nothing could match up to the popular Turkish series. Meryem also found herself in the midst of hate comments and social-media mockery, after her cosmetic surgeries went horribly wrong.
