The Man Too Handsome for Saudi Who Actually Wasn’t

As it turns out, Omar Borkan Al Gala, reported to be one of those ridiculously good-looking men who were told to leave Saudi Arabia for being too handsome, is actually a false news. Actually, no one was deported from Saudi Arabia and certainly not for being too handsome. And, actually, no one was even kicked out of the heritage and cultural festival except for a member of the religious police for protesting against the presence of a Gulf female singer. It was all a great grand hoax!

There was, indeed, an incident involving Al Gala. According to the head of the mutawaeen, Al Gala had made his way into the family section of the event and was dancing inappropriately.
