The famous Syrian artist Asala Nasri denied reports that she contracted a disease and had to travel to the United States for treatment.


 Asala said that she went to the United States for medical examinations because she was suffering from bad headaches.


 She saw a specialist there who confirmed she does not have a more serious health problem, said Asala.


 The doctor said the headaches were caused by stress and advised her to take a break and rest for a while.


Asala is getting ready to launch her new album, which includes songs in the ‘Khaliji’ (Gulf Countries) dialect. Asala released a previous ‘Khaliji’ album in 2006 called “La Tkhaf” (Don’t Be Afraid).
