Too Sexy For Saudi Arabia: Dubai Native Omar Borkan Al Gala Kicked Out Of Saudi Arabia For Being 'Too Handsome'

Omar Borkan Al Gala is too sexy for Saudi Arabia. The Dubai native was kicked out of Saudi Arabia earlier this month by religious police for being "too handsome." Sky Dancing Blog reports that Al Gala was attending the annual Janadriyah Festival in the capital city of Riyadh, when police in Saudi Arabia kicked out Al Gala because they were worried "female visitors would fall for him."

Al Gala and two other men were immediately deported back to the city of Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates. They were reportedly promoting the United Arab Emirates at a stand in the festival, but were asked to leave after a female Emirati artist unexpectedly showed up to the event. The conservative Muslim society prohibits women from interacting with males who are not related to them.

A spokesman for the UAE delegation confirmed in a statement that, "Her visit to the UAE stand was a coincidence as it was not included in the programme which we had already provided to the festival's management."

Al Gala, a self-described photographer, actor and poet has not publicly confirmed if he was one of the three handsome men to be deported. However, he posted a link to the original news report on his Facebook page, which has been swarmed with new followers in the last 24 hours and pushed his page up to over 85,000 "likes." His Facebook page is loaded with modeling photos and musings such as, "The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides."

The other two men who were reportedly kicked out of the country have also yet to be publicly confirmed.
