I received an email forward from my aunt yesterday, it was written in arabic and it went something like this:
Tommy Helfiger, the famous designer, is racist and he hates Arabs, Jews, Hispanics..etc, and that he wishes none of the aforementioned races would buy his clothes, And then the email went on to say that Tommy was hosted on the Oprah show and she asked him whether the rumor was true or not and He blatantly answered “Yes” as in the rumor is true, and then Oprah asked him to leave her show.
Naturally, after reading it I went to Youtube to see this victorious moment. And guess what? It turned out to be just a BIG Fat Lie. just another rumor that’s been circulating for years. Oprah had him on the show over a year ago and they talked about the rumor and set the record straight. I know a lot of people would fall for it coz I did for a moment there, so check the video yourself and stop this email from spreading. Watch the video HERE.

These things are called Urban Legends. The first thing I do when I receive an e-mail like this is go to and search for it.
They do a good job of verifying the information. I urge anyone who receives e-mails of this nature to check snopes before spreading the e-mail any further!
Its getting old.. and I am still receiving it (been receiving it since the late 1990s)! Even after the Oprah show!!! ughhhh
um….
what rumor? lol maybe because i don’t follow fashion :p
The story is true 100% the only small waver is the jews and muslims the designer hates blacks and he was kicked out of opra’s show for the same reason. I saw the show back then.
Thanks for setting the record straight. Poor guy. Madri laish 7a6aw doobhum dooba
sorry yousef bas why would you even bother to search for such things. Arabs are used to such rumors and it pisses me more when then act like its true. take for instance
1) Coca cola and the how they are trying to type “Allah”
2)Nike and how they want us to wear the shoes with the name of god undekneath
3) Apple store in NYC and they are saying its Alka3ba and its a nightclub
too many other rumors that people still believe.
you want my straight forward opinion ? They are dump arabs, they always spread the rumors because they think ena that way the can spread islam more and more but on the other hand they are runining the reputation of it and yes i dont consider my self an arab cause maysharefne to be honest bas im proud to be kuwaiti and thats it
sorry if my post may sound offensive to some people bas this is my opinion
Um… GAP is Gay and Proud…. damned be the one who wears their clothes….. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand the list goes on….
lol that what happens when you run out of topics, either more food posts or some old news. 😀 h3h3h3h3
