Iraqi singer Shatha Hassoun's reputation is being butchered on social media for showing some leg.

The starlet fell over while trying to take a Snapchat video. That's when a pair of first aiders rushed to help her and attend to the cut on her knee.

Naturally, she filmed the entire thing for her Snapchat followers, but little did she know that her legs would cause that much commotion.

Shatha's fans deemed showing that much flesh inappropriate and against conservative Arab values.

But the real question is: Why isn't she criticised for wearing a short dress, yet she's thrown under the bus for showing her legs in an innocent video?
