In Dubai Bling's latest season, everyone's in their villain era
ESPECIALLY Ebraheem Al Samadi

Everyone’s playing their part in this chaotic opera, and honestly, I couldn’t look awayEveryone’s playing their part in this chaotic opera, and honestly, I couldn’t look away

If Dubai Bling is scripted, the writers are doing a darn good job.
While previous seasons invited us to marvel at wealth and privilege, this one asks us to consider their cost. The diamonds are still dazzling, the parties still over the top, but the people wearing and attending them seem lonelier, angrier, and more desperate than ever. Season 3 doesn’t just entertain; it forces us to confront our complicity as viewers in a system that rewards spectacle over substance, all while making us laugh out loud. A solid 💎💎💎💎/5 for serving peak reality television.
Let’s hand out some well-deserved awards to the MVPs who made this season the most unhinged yet.
Queen of savage comebacks: Safa
Every season needs a queen, and Safa reigns supreme.
When Farhana Bodi said, "Someone needs to put you in your place" to Safa and she snipes back with "Okay, and you think you're going to do it?", I spat out my tea.
Farhana: Instead of working on your mommy makeover, work on your character, because it’s so bad.
Safa: Honey, I can do surgery to fix me, you can’t do surgery to fix your brain!
Who gives Safa these comebacks please??? #dubaiblingseason3 #DubaiBling pic.twitter.com/S07XQ3qn24

Pettiest kid on the block: Ebraheem
His petty energy reached its peak during the dinner party debacle, where his offhanded remarks lit the fuse for one of the season’s biggest blowouts. It’s maddening, it’s messy, and it’s why we keep watching.
Dj bliss smashing that plate on Ebraheem's head is my Roman Empire from Dubai Bling 🤯

Best bodyguard husband: Hanna
Nobody's coming for Zeina. Not on Hanna's watch. His presence is a reminder that sometimes, the most valuable thing in a world of glitter and excess is someone who truly has your back.
Anyway, if I were to choose a Dubai Bling husband it would either be Fahad or Hanna because both of them stand on business.

Most likeable: Fahad + Salem
Warm, uncomplicated, and just trying to mind their own business while everyone else spirals into emotional bankruptcy.Safa got whole grown ass business men and women to dress in black and come sit in a park under dubai’s burning sun talking about a Lamborghini funeral. Salem was in so much disbelief he called it “unethical” #dubaibling pic.twitter.com/UjkGMYuu00

Best duo: Mona and her calendar
Mona’s obsession with scheduling is a subplot that deserves its own spin-off. Also, her relationship with her calendar is probably the most functional one on the show.
Mona saying she don’t do last minute dates with her husband ??? Diabolical 🤣 #dubaiblingseason3

Whether you’re here for the petty drama, the glitzy aesthetics, or just to feel better about your own messy group of friends, this season delivers. It’s messy, it’s maddening, it’s marvelous.
