Lebanese singer Alissa is scheduled to hold a charity concert in Kuwait, from which proceeds will go directly to the San Jude Foundation. Presently, Alissa is in Tunisia for a performance at the Abu Nawas hotel, and will then head to Cairo at the end of the month to hold a live concert at the Cairo Opera House, to be broadcast by Infinity television and Egypt’s local television network.

 

According to the London based Elaph, Rotana music channel will continue to air her new clip “Hubbak Waja” (Your Love is Painful), the third from her latest album. The clip for the tremendously popular song was filmed in a mansion in one of Lebanon’s elite suburbs, and filming lasted for three days.

 

Alissa’s manager is holding negotiations for her performance at the Jordanian annual summer festival in Jarrash, Jordan and the Carthage Festival in Tunisia.

 

After a successful partnership that lasted for years, Alissa and composer/music distributor Jan Marie have separated, Alissa’s latest release “Ahla Dunia” (The Perfect World) as their last collaboration.  Sources reveal that the separation came as a result of differences of opinion between the two. The singer has already begun sessions with different composers as part of her preparations for her upcoming album, as well as beginning her search for a new music distributor.
