Some peeps in Egypt have been "smoking up" Lebanese superstar Nancy Ajram. Come again?

Drug dealers in Alexandria have named different types of drugs after some of the most famous celebs in the Arab world, all in the hope of shifting bigger amounts of the narcotics during the Holidays.

According to drug dealer "Bangar," who was recently arrested by Egyptian authorities for the possession of 10kg of marijuana, naming drugs after famous artists, like Ajram, is used to attract female customers, who tend to take more drugs during New Year's Eve parties, according to him.

Next time you're offered something to do with Nancy, Haifa Wehbe, Elissa or others, make sure you're not about to smoke up or snort something you're not supposed to.
