Khouloud Succariyeh and Nidal Darwish and Lebanon’s first civil marriage

Just like every year, L’Orient-Le Jour reveals the list of the top 30 Lebanese who made the headlines whether for a good or bad thing, throughout the year. Here’s the [full list] for 2013:

1- Darwiche / Succariyé
2- Michel Sleiman
3- Rabih Kayrouz
4- Wajdi Mouawad
5- Ziad Rahbani
6- Hassan Nasrallah
7- Janane Mallat
8- Karen Chekerdjian
9- Riad Salamé
10- Joe Kodeih
11- Salim Eddé
12- Karim Edgard Chaya
13- Nayla Audi
14- Amin Dora
15- Gasnier Duparc / Harati
16- Akram Zaatari
17- Lisa Asseily
18- Anthony Touma
19- Kamakian / Maacaron
20- Michèle Ghanem
21- May Joumblatt
22- Sandra Mansour
23- Rasha Kahil
24- Ayman Mhanna
25- Fadl Chaker
26- Vénus Khoury-Ghata
27- Élias Murr
28- Mireille Nassif
29- Élie Ferzli
30- Baha Laham

I can think of a name or two to add to that list, such as Marwan Charbel or Hind Hobeika, the Lebanese entrepreneur behind Instabeat.

PS: I beg L’Orient-Le Jour to change their horrible website in 2014.
