The Middle East’s answer to Oprah Winfrey, but with better qualifications, Dr Al Dorai is the face of one of the region’s most popular talk shows. A psychologist with a background in sex education, Dr Al Dorai fronts the Kuwaiti television show ‘Seerat El Hob’ (The Love Story), a prime-time phone-in show that tackles real-life relationship issues.
With the motto that a undisclosed problem is an unsolved one, Al Dorai has been credited with drawing previously taboo subjects into the spotlight, openly debating issues of love and marriage.
In a traditionally conservative region, her frank style has won her legions of fans across the Arab world, justifying her appearance in the top 20 as this year’s highest ranking female.
A published author, Dr Al Dorai has penned more than 14 books and is a regular contributor to local publications.
