Would Lebanese Pool Attendants Let African Supermodels Swim ?

July 26, 2010 · Mustapha Hamoui

Great question from Egyptian blogger Zeinobia

I just wonder if that rule is implied on domestic workers or any dark skinned persons in general , in fact I wonder if that rule is implied on a supermodel like Tyra Banks and TV legend Oprah ; imagine if one of them is visiting Beirut and decided to spend a day in Sporting private beach !!??

I think the fact that she mentioned “Sporting” club by name shows how big a PR disaster this is.

Here’s another fun question: Would they allow Barack Obama in?
