In the Arab world we say ‘Yekhlak Men El Shabah 40’ which basically means there are lots of people who look really similar! Well sometimes these stunning resemblances between people can cause drastic problems. That is exactly what happened at a shopping mall in Kuwait when someone saw two people shopping who looked like Noor and Muhannad and so spread the word in the mall. The obvious effect was a riot! The guys followed the girl trying to hit on her and went to the extent of actual sexual harassment, of course the girl ignored them but they did not stop and things just escalated!
The news of the alleged attendance of the Turkish stars spread like the flu with SMS messages going out to everyone on shoppers contact lists. Such a disturbing incident that puts the Arab youth in such a negative light!
Are we so primitive that when we see an attractive woman who looks like a star we need to sexually harass here? And although this was only a relatively small group of guys, all of us will be judged upon their actions!

Oh my god!! something really similar happened with me during the summer. I was actually in syria at that time at a beach resort in Tartus.I was walking around at night with my cousin on when these two local guys (from the nearby diy3a) on a motorbike kept driving past us extremley fast , back and forth. As my cousin turned around to look at who they were they stopped at quite a far distance and pointed at me and shouted out that the girl next to her (obviuosly mio) looked alot like lamees(which is what a couple of friends and relatives have said before). They seemed very arrogant and just kept on following us and saying random things -that we didn't even hear well to understand - eventhough we decided to go back to our chalets. However some other guys seemed to tag along with them, that I personally became too scared to actually finish the journey home that we litteraly hid behind some trees then took a short cut and went back to the central square - were it was very busy and only for pestesdrians - in order to wait for them to stop looking around for us . We actaully stayed there for so long until we saw mine and her brother walking nearby.
Sorry Waleg.. But i'm from kuwait and this story is NOT true. What happened was a rumor was spread that lamees and muhannad were coming to a mall in kuwait and everybody ran and waited beside the entrance door.. and thats when the fights happened.
i swear what is the attraction with noor? she's so ugly and im a guy!! lamees on the other hand is beautiful! but i dont understand men who think noor is hot, bcos she aint!
