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.
