年輕的約旦化妝師布利哈憑借模仿來自阿拉伯世界及其他地方的著名人物的視頻在網(wǎng)上走紅，她希望借此給人們帶來快樂。

Bliha， a young Jordanian makeup artist has shot to online fame with videos of herself imitating famous figures from across the Arab world and beyond.

The 27?year?old artist started making the clips after losing her job as a theater makeup artist in Bahrain and returning to a coronavirus lockdown in Jordan. Based in a basement apartment in northern Amman where she lives with her mother and young brother， she has transformed herself into many celebrities like Angelina Jolie， Michael Jackson and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Everyone was bored and under great pressure when the pandemic began. So she decided to bring people a bit of happiness. Months later， she has some 30，000 followers on TikTok and another 24，000 on Instagram， where comments on her videos are full of praise.

She was surprised by peoples positive reactions and encouragement. But while they may be light?hearted， each video takes hours of preparation. She spends entire days watching videos to understand their behavior， their move?ments， and the way they talk， dress， walk or smoke. It takes her out of herself and she becomes another person. Its a really strange feeling.

Blihas clips provided a distraction from Jordans tough three?month lockdown in 2020， which was followed by months of curfew（宵禁令） to prevent COVID?19 that has killed more than 4，300 people there.

She says the pandemic has given some people time to discover themselves and develop new skills. And since she arrived home jobless， her videos have won her two offers of work at TV stations. Jordanian actor and screenwriter Omar Zorba has also hired her to work on a sitcom（情景喜?。?which was aired during the Islamic fasting month of Ramadan.

“During the lockdown， Bliha made an amazing impression on me. She was able to totally change actors faces， meaning they can play two different roles in the same series.” “Honestly， I havent seen another makeup artist in Jordan with this level of creativity and craftsmanship，” he added.
