This year has been packed with emotional roller coasters. Many Egyptians, or at least most of our team, tried to stay positive for the past 12 months. We did however have our occasional meltdowns, hysterical ugly cry moments à la Kim Kardashian style and momentarily lost our sanity in true Mortada Mansour fashion. Yet today, we crown the next few Egyptians as the true drama queens. Here are 18 times our people absolutely had no chill.
When Mortada Mansour accused Maya Diab of being a man
When our Egyptians decided to abuse, and play with sharks on a snorkeling trip
When our parliament introduced the country to the term ‘misogynistic’ with their constant talk about women’s virginity and female genital mutilation

Oh my conspiracy theory! Are they actually wearing t-shirts with the word Qatar on it?

Tamer Hagras had plenty of chill but we had none. We love you Tamer
