Hello! Paris in Dubai? I’ll give it a miss just because the irony is too much. With all the “imprisoned” foreign workers there the sight of an American slut exploiting herself on TV without the sad lot making it all possible being able to watch makes me SICK. Bono, where are you?

I live in Dubai, and agree with this article. Paris has no idea what she’s getting herself into. Dubai has NOTHING, it is NOT a fashion capital (shopping malls do not qualify as high fashion—sorry guys), and it is nothing like LA, Las Vegas, and could never dream of holding a candle to NYC or London. This show will be short lived, they’ll never sell it to MTV or British Broadcasting. This propaganda BS that Dubai is trying to sell the rest of the world is transparent. I hope Paris is herself, gets is some sort of trouble, then Dubai’s hopes of being a global tourist destination will be shot.

Seriously! (the poster)….you’re an idiot. Read again:

“Why, somewhere that rules public drunkenness and sex outside of wedlock to be illegal, of course.”

This is actually true. How vigorously the law is enforced depends on your race but I can assure you that these things ARE illegal and people DO get punished for them. Regularly. She probably won’t get arrested for wearing a miniskirt (although she may be ejected from Mall of the Emirates for violating the dress code – yes, malls have a dress code in Dubai) but I expect she’ll do something stupid like stumble out of Chi at 4am and amble round Karama shitfaced until the guys in the green cars find her.

But let me guess, Seriously!, you wouldn’t happen to be one of the air-headed blondes who think they’re a proper journalist because they ‘work’ at ITP Consumer, copy-and-pasting text from the ‘proper’ editions of your magazines, would you?

Very funny post. I’m probably late responding to it, but just found it. I particularly enjoyed the part about her having to break the lizard’s legs. I know that’s what it would take to get me to stay around her for longer than a second.

Oh, and Dubai is a very cosmopolitan city! (only 27% are arabs). The rest come from Europe, India, United States and Asia?! If they its so strict and uncomfortable, why are they even in Dubai till now??

Seriously, you guys have a totally wrong perception of Dubai and Middle Easterners. I think this article is really unprofessional. Dubai is known to be a very fashionable city. It has the world’s largest mall, skyscraper and even earth’s most luxurious hotel. Dubaians wear bikinis and miniskirts! Please do research before taking the time to write this , i’m sorry, stupid article! Roberto Cavalli just recently opened a nightclub there and Chanel’s Karl Lagerfeld will be designing a hotel, or an island more precisly, called Isla Moda. He’s not the only one, Giorgio Armani, Versace and Elie Saab hotels are currently under construction in Dubai! And every American store has a store in Dubai, including Saks Fifth Avenue and Bloomingdale’s!! Whoever wrote this article is seriously unprofessional and uneducated and should go back to school. Oh, and you are racist! Dubai even has your magazines, hence Harper’s Bazaar!! Reading this just makes me sick.
