Egyptian actress Riham Said attacked Lebanese broadcaster George Kordahi in a video she posted on Instagram in response to his provocative comments about the cancelling of her program. Kordahi had said that Riham deserved to be hit with shoes.
Riham said she was caught off guard when a fan from Morocco asked her to respond to George Kordahi. She stated that she did not know how to respond after she quit working in media, but once she watched the video she was surprised by his attack.
Said expressed her shock over Kordahi’s comments.
“Who deserves to be hit with shoes? You might be demented, but not to that extent,” she said. “Despite your age and your grey hair, manners and morality are a difficult thing, but the lack of morality is easier.”
She continued: “As a Lebanese person I expect you to be better than this, but “You are a disgrace to the Lebanese people”
George Kordahi commented on the banning of Riham Said to work in media during his appearance on the program “Fi Male” hosted by Carla Haddad. He said: “In Egypt they use a sweet expression: ‘she deserves to be hit with shoes.’”
He made the comments in a plea to prevent Riham from appearing in the media, after she said shocking things about obese people.
