Instead, she ended up saying what’s considered in Arabic as an insult. It actually read “you’re a donkey,” a term which can be pronounced in Arabic as “Enta Homaar.”
She has since deleted the meme.
It’s unclear whether LiLo was tricked into believing “you’re a donkey” means “you’re beautiful,” or it was an innocent case of mistranslation.
Her followers certainly took advantage of the apparent confusion, reposting the meme on other platforms. Social media was abuzz with the predictable gags.
