Manny, reality stars & more: Famous people in Dubai this week
Dubai is quickly becoming the mini-break and stopover favourite for the world’s rich and famous.
With so many A-listers (and, let’s be honest B-, C- and D-listers) visiting the glittering emirate every day, we bring you a weekly round up of who was spotted where.
This week we’ve got pop stars, Real Housewives, sporting legends and more…

Lebanese-British pop star Mika took a selfie in Dubai Airport (he then tweeted about seeing a billboard on SZR of his self-proclaimed doppelganger Nick Grimshaw. We can definitely see it):

The Real Housewives of New York’s Kristen Taekman was here for fashion shows and managed to fit in Dubai musts – the Burj, camels and evening gowns during daylight:

Superstar Belgian DJ Yves V also fit in a skydive before playing at Sensation Dubai (basically, if you want to see a famous person in the city, go to Skydive Dubai).
English cricketer Jason Roy swapped bat for iron for a round of golf at Dubai Creek.
And finally, Azerbaijani pop star Emin – who is huge in Russia – took his kids trick or treating. Judging from the fact that it looks like they’re in the Burj Al Arab, we imagine they scored some pretty swanky sweets:
