Lebanese singer Alissa refused to comment on the latest public remarks made by her rival Lebanese singer Haifa Wahbi.
Haifa stated that, “Alissa is jealous of me and my success.”
According to the Egyptian daily, Al Akhbar, Alissa stated that Haifa has a right to say what she pleases and she is not obligated to reply.
Alissa explained that she has all the characteristics that make her beautiful, giving her no reason to be jealous of anyone, let alone Haifa.
Alissa also asserted that she does not rely on producing provocative music videos to gain popularity, and is not opposed to being considered a sexy woman. Being attractive is not a sin, Alissa noted, stating that her fans are the real judge of her talent.
Alissa held a special performance at the annual celebration for the Artists Association in Lebanon, headed by actor Ihsan Sadeq.
In attendance were prominent singers Sabah, Wadee’ El Safi, Fadi Aboud, Samira Baroudi, Elias Rahbani, Zein Al Omur, Henry Zughaib, and Anthony Karbaj, in addition to VIP figures in Lebanon.
The celebration, which took place at the grand Le Royal Hotel in the heart of Beirut, was unique in its organization and the welcoming of the prominent guests.
Alissa sang a number of her most popular hits in addition to her favorite song by Lebanese singer Fadel Shaker, “Lao Ala Albi” (If it was up to my heart).
