10 Arabs who 'can't come to the phone right now'

"Oh, because they're dead."

Taylor Swift's new single Look What You Made Me Do may be taking the world by storm, but it's one particular lyric line we're obsessed with: 

"I'm sorry, the old Taylor can't come to the phone right now. Why? Oh! 'Cause she's dead!", the 27-year-old pop star sings. 

And Arab stars are singing back ... in our heads. 

Here's a list of Arab celebrities who too can't make it to the phone, for reasons of their own. 

1. The old Amr Diab is too young for the phone

2. The old Samira Said is not glamorous enough for the phone

3. The old Najwa Karam is too hip for the phone

4. The old Hani Salamah is too crazy for the phone

5. The old Ragheb Alama's mustache will cover up the phone

6. The old Haifa Wehbe is too different for the phone

7. The old Ahlam can't even ANYTHING for the phone

8. The old Maya Diab is too hipster for the phone

9. The old Hussain Al-Jassmi is too angry for the phone

10. The old Nancy Ajram is too busy painting her lip-liner for the phone
