We're Not Kidding with Mehdi & Friends20 Joulu 2024

"Holy Sh*t, We're Being Lied To": Huda Kattan, CEO of Huda Beauty, Speaks Out

If you've followed Mehdi's career, you know he's interviewed heads of state, members of Congress, homicidal mercenaries, and even terrorists. But this may be Mehdi's most intimidating guest yet — Huda Kattan — the superstar beauty influencer, activist, reality TV show host, and founder and CEO of international beauty brand 'Huda Beauty'. Funnily enough, Huda was also nervous to sit down with one of her personal role models.

Huda opens up to Mehdi about growing up in Tennessee and the moment she realized that US media is oftentimes propaganda: "That was the moment where I was like, holy shit, we are being lied to. We're being told stories for the sake of specific agendas."

They also talk about the launch of 'Huda Beauty', the lack of diversity in the beauty industry, celebrities who have stayed silent on Gaza, and Huda's activism on Gaza and Palestine. "You don't want people who support genocide to use your products?" Mehdi asks. "Absolutely not. You're not allowed." Huda replies.
