Controversial Egyptian belly dancer Sama al-Masry sparked controversy once again this week after appearing holding underwear in her latest video clip.The article didn't link to the video, so here it is.
In the clip, called “Ahmed, el shebsheb daa” or “Ahmed, I lost my slipper,” the singer appears in provocative clothes and holding underwear in her hands.
After the release of the video clip, many social media users reacted to the scenes.
“The only terrorism act is Sama al-Masry being on television,” one user wrote on Twitter.
It is certainly suggestive, as the dancer washes her undergarments on a rooftop in front of a weight-lifting macho Egyptian man.
The video itself is pretty horrendous, but it doesn't show anything that wouldn't be on the Disney channel. I think that Egyptian cinema in the 1960s was more risque.
