Leave Lamees Alone is a response campaign to this incident, which is causing quite a stir in the UAE. The t-shirts, designed  by Mohammed Sultan Al-Habtoor for house of glaMO, have been all the rage on the UAE main street. It’s a lighter and more humorous response to what some claim to be an interview that was not representative of Emaratis in general. The t-shirts are a kitschy take on cultural episode and the reply it has generated. Right now, in Dubai, if you don’t have one of these, you are basically a nobody.

  12. `SS says:

    I watched Lamees on the Oprah show and i found her to be very well spoken, eloquent and someone the UAE should be proud off.

    alot of the backlash is actual disguised jealousy.

  13. a! says:

    • loft965 says:

      Apparently, you don’t either.

    • Genie says:

      There are many interpretations of religion and culture. People who believe everything they watch on Oprah or television aren’t the smartest folks around. What was Lamees supposed to do, paint a pretend pretty picture. Someone like you probably acts religious and goes to clubs in Dubai like… Cyclone. Leave Lamees Alone!!

  15. wadima says:

    Wallah mtfayjeeeeeeeen !!!!!

  16. Nona says:

    i think Lames did a stupid speech behalf of all Moslems UAE women , she should be sorry of whatever wrong ( electricity bill, UAE women unnecessary hair cover and ……… ) she said,

  17. mansoor says:

    I actually like this tshirt..this just comes to show that some ppl r really genuine about what happens around us. Maybe mohd was smart, and took advantage of it. Besides, anything that comes on to my screen is public property. So grow up ppl, and support the local talent. No hard feelings Dr. Lamees, I highly respect u and am a huge fan of shiffa

  18. mansoor says:

    y r some ppl taking it too personally….its a funny tshirt, and ppl should look at the brighter things in life. Yes, if it gets TOO personal definately ppl will not take it. Dr. Lamees has expressed her own opinion and she has the right to express it the way she desires. So, for the sake of it…make lamees our Hero and support the local talent. (btw, how small is your small size)

  19. HAMAD says:

    HA HA HA wallah wanasah

  20. uae_heart says:

    To those who thinks that lamees is innocent I am sorry to say u think so couse u r just like here..to me, should not represent the uae in such shows cause she don’t deserve it,
    Its so shameful to have such a representitive for our beloved country, whtever she get she deserve it..

  21. saoud says:

    People are stupid,, everyone will say anything just to appear on tv or try to be famous.. Every living human should shut the Eff up and live his life quietly

    and whats with the ugly shirt and gay guy poses ?

  22. monsoon says:

    FYI The money is going to charity http://www.hga-uae.com and Mona Al Mansoori from Handicapped Association Guardians is supporting it. Might i add Lamees’s family is in total support of this t-shirt!

  26. sa5afaah says:

    stupid idea

  27. hind says:

    Omg those guys look so weird! Ew
    So ugly too ahahah
    Plus the tshirt is such a turn off and whoever wears it is a NObody! LOL hahay
    Grrrr losers

  28. umsara says:

    Ok so those “models” represent emarati ppl better than Lamees did?!

  29. Ahmad Al Shaikh says:

    Whoever appraises Lamees, is so shallow or maybe naieve I don’t know, but it really surprises me.
    She is well spoken, her English is good, she is well dressed ….ya u r right, but shows how shallow u r. She talks about Emaraties and Islam and she do know a lot about those topics… That tells me that u r either not muslim or not originally Emaraty.

    Its not jealousy neither envy, in fact I didn’t really known her before this intrview. We are critisizing her because of the things she said whether its about Emaratis or about Islam. She got so many things mixed up, she needs to get her facts straight and learn a lot about Islam and Emaraties. Its not a secret that Lamees isn’t originally Emaraty and everyone knows this. The new thing I learned about Lamees after this interview that she knows nothing about Islam.In fact, I know none Muslim that know about Islam much more than her. That definetaly makes her not a good representative.

    About this shirt I like the idea, and I willing to buy one, or maybe 2. This shirt will make ignorant ppl think twice before they open their mouth and talk about things they know nothing about

  30. ولد زايد says:

    غير اذا هي عندها واصطا ليش ﻻ بنسبالها فري

  31. mahary says:

    I believe what lamees said was absolutely wrong! But the tshirt is a very childesh thing to do. Ppl can express their opinion in different ways!but Tshirts! lool

  32. bougies says:

    I ordered one! Thanks loft! I think they are so cool!!!

  33. Dubai Resident says:

    Are you guys serious? This is the major ’cause’ you are trying to support? And to support it by justifying the donation for Handicapped Association Guardians?!

    Dubai has been getting bashed by every country in the world – literally.

    Someone actually gets the attention of Oprah, and you flip out because, she says the government pays for electricity? Or because of her Islamic views on women wearing head scarves?

    You guys are pathetic. The rest of world thinks Arabs are a bunch of camel-f****, and you complain about someone shedding some good light on your culture?

    Of course the UAE will not take care of expats! What country in the world would?

    Why don’t you guys read the news, and find a real issue to support.

  34. Mona says:

    Hey ppl this things is turning out
    To be a freekshow, the models r
    R freeky too.. What lamees did was
    A mistake and will b corrected. No
    Need to make money out of it..

  35. bint bu'6abi says:

    WOW a whole campaign!!
    I believe if everyone
    truly cares about the
    representation of our
    country then all the
    UAE Nationals should
    join togethor to make
    a video that best
    represents the UAE and
    send it off to Oprah!
    If it means that much to
    all of you who care about
    how Americans perceive you
    then you have nothing else
    to lose!!

  40. Rashed says:

    This whole thing is bullshit thay think off mony more than ane thing

  41. Saud says:

    Some comments were totally not related to the subject (especially haters). Most of you haters attacked individuals and people and this is not acceptable at all in the civilized world now, we are so behind the globe because of you guys. So haters, Grow up, don’t be jealous, and stretch your horizon and mind too.
    Wither I agree with the idea or not. “Guys keep up the good work and we want to see more”. :)

  42. ASA says:

    Yes, you should leave her alone, at least she didn’t say bad things, although it is not true what said about electricity, but this didn’t affected UAE , it is the totally the opposite , it make then envy us more that you do, as our country provided us everything, and they wish they got just little of what we get. (Thanks God).
    And what I heard that she admitted that she said that by mistake, she wanted to say the health is provided free, not the electricity.
    So just leave her alone, other people do really bad things and should be ashamed that they are presenting and being from UAE.

  43. why do you even waste your time on a site then bother to comment and express such hate? Jealousy? Exactly what I thought! Stupid morons! Broken english is such a turn off I must add!!

  44. ANGRYHOMOPHOBICWHITEMAN says:
