With Egyptian social media being so full of interesting new trends recently, all Egyptians were collectively shocked to see that some of TV host Amina Shelbaya’s etiquette-teaching videos had resurfaced. However, we didn’t stay shocked for long because we found them totally hilarious!
Weird videos and overly polished etiquette aside, let’s talk a little about Amina Shelbaya and her wave of trendy videos.
So, Who Is Amina Shelbaya?
Despite everyone in Egypt knowing who Amina Shelbaya is through her TV presenting career, not many know that she was a former Miss Egypt with a modelling stint, a few acting roles, and her very own fashion and beauty-oriented program.
Recently, Shelbaya has been attempting to enlighten the Egyptian public on lifestyle and etiquette through her Facebook page. Unfortunately, though the TV presenter’s etiquette videos have quickly gone viral, we don’t think they garnered the kind of attention she was looking for.

What Are The Etiquette Videos Really About, And Why Did They Get Attention?
When someone tries to teach the masses proper dining etiquette, you wouldn’t think everyone would be mocking them as much as everyone is currently bashing Amina Shelbaya. And you’d be right. No one is mocking Shelbaya because of the concept; they’re actually mocking her because she told people to eat grapes with a knife and fork!
Sounds a little silly, doesn’t it? Well, that’s not the only piece of odd advice that the former beauty queen has given the masses. She also told people to eat bananas the same way—we can’t even begin to imagine what she thinks of people who eat pizza with their hands!
All jokes aside, we get that Amina just wants to be helpful by teaching people good manners, but sometimes, she takes a notch or two too far.
