Omar Borkan Al Gala, the 25-year-old UAE national deported from Saudi Arabia for being "too handsome", spoke about the pressures of "instant stardom" in an exclusive interview with Yahoo's omg! NOW.
The model and actor, who is currently in Canada, told presenter Jessica Kahawaty that the newfound fame had turned his life "upside down" and that he thinks beauty is a "gift from God".
"I look at it as a gift from God, to be smart to use it in the right way," Al Gala said.
When asked how he felt about the huge number of fans following his every move and him turning into an Internet sensation almost overnight, he said: "It's amazing feeling, flattering at the same time."
"I had the most amazing awesome two weeks in my life, connecting with my fans all over [the world] with social network, Facebook and Twitter, Instagram," he added.
