Whoa did you hear about this? Apparently Omar Borkan Al Gala a dubai-based actor, model, photographer and poet (!) was one of the three men who were deported from Saudi Arabia because they were TOO GOOD LOOKING!
Apparently Saudi authorities were worried ladies might lose their minds over their handsomeness and all hell would break lose! FYI he’s all over Twitter and Facebook if you wanna drool it up 🙂
He was deported from an annual culture festival in Saudi Arabia held in the capital. “A festival official said the three Emiratis were taken out on the grounds [that] they are too handsome and that the Commission members feared female visitors could fall for them.”
Omar now suffers from “instant stardom” saying that this newfound fame had turned his life “upside down” and that he thinks beauty is a “gift from God”. He further revealed that his debut film project was going to be in Dubai and the shooting was to begin in June.
PS. I even found an interview! Watch the interviewer go all googly-eyed while she talks to him btw *LOL*
I also found you a poetic Facebook update too: “Darling, open your eyes. You are not made up of those words that hurt you. Or that number on the scale. Or the expectations that you feel you will never meet. You are made up of nothing more than you. Simply, beautifully, wonderfully, uniquely you. You are a lovely and complex soul. An individually fascinating combination of thoughts, ideas, feelings, emotions. No other is as beautiful as you. Look past the mirror. Look at your soul. Only then will you see yourself as you truly are. Beautiful. So smile! And dont forget to love yourself.”
PS. Gotta love that’s a poet too. FYI Canada. He’s currently living in your neck of the woods, go forth and flirt! I meanwhile am off to find the other two deportees…
