“This is why I’m Hot” , the theme song to Lebanese Comic Nemr Abou Nasser. Nemr represents a grand sector of Lebanese population that was forced to immigrate out of Lebanon due to the war. After living in the USA for a period of time, Nemr returns to Lebanon to study at the American University in Beirut (AUB) and single handedly start the Lebanese comedy circuit. His jokes are mixed with sexual comedy, cynical comedy, and cultural eccentricities.
Nemr associates with Bassma (a social development initiative sans political or religious association) and Children’s Cancer Center Lebanon.

Time QA with the dean of comedy
Most ethnic groups get their own month to celebrate their culture. What do Arab-Americans get? “Orange alert,” jokes comedian Dean Obeidallah. An American born in New Jersey to a Palestinian father and Italian-American mother, Obeidallah turned to comedy to fight the suspicion and ignorance he encountered in the wake of the Sept. 11 attacks. In 2003 he co-founded the New York Arab-American Comedy Festival, which runs this week in Manhattan. Obeidallah spoke with TIME about bridging cultures, the fading “siege” against Arab-Americans and taking stand-up to the Middle East.
