Well that was a bit awkward.
Lindsay Lohan was practising her Arabic on social media this week, but a post to her Instagram account backfired miserably.
The actress reportedly put a picture of an Arabic phrase on her Instagram account with the translation ‘you’re beautiful’ underneath.

However, Arabic speakers were quick to point out that the correct translation was actually ‘you’re a donkey’.
She deleted the post afterwards, but not before it was caught by a number of fans.
