In Dubai Bling's latest season, everyone's in their villain era

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.

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.

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.

Most likeable: Fahad + Salem

Warm, uncomplicated, and just trying to mind their own business while everyone else spirals into emotional bankruptcy.

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.

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.
