BIAF, the Beirut International Awards Festival

Well Arabs are just bossed about celebrities as everybody else. This cult of celebrity worships is created when TV networks spin out of control and when entertainers think that they are worthy of people's attention all the time and not just when they are making them music.

When the entertainer wins an award he wants us to see it, that's why in Lebanon they have this big thing called BIAF, the Beirut International Awards Festival where fashion designers get to showcase their best work on Arab singers and dancers. Now, people tune in for sure and award recipients come from all corners of the world--mostly Arab countries.

all the has-beens and the ones that can afford to pay some money can attend and schmooze with the celebrates. Hey, they must feel good, everything they do, is under the spotlight...next, they will ask us for some privacy. This is the big bubble where those entertainers live.

BIAF يستقطب وجوهًا وأسماءً كبيرة ويكرِّمهم في لبنان
