People Are Confused By New “Stars Illustrated” Gebran Bassil Interview

You’ve probably heard of a magazine called “Sports Illustrated” complete with stunning athletic people, but have you ever come across “Stars Illustrated”? Of course you haven’t! Google has barely come across this bizarre new publication.

On the cover of the upcoming edition is none other than former Foreign Minister Gebran Bassil. Bassil can be seen posing with arms crossed, while the editorial is sprinkled with some hilarious tidbits like “Dr. Mireille Saba Redford explosive & uncensored interview with Gibran Bassil”.



In the interview, he makes a few outlandish statements like:


– I was offered to be a rock star in the US but chose sanctions

– Moral assassination is much harder than the physical assassination

– Lebanon in not a hotel!


Needless to say, Twitter was abuzz with reactions.
