"Elissa is not the queen of sensation and I am not fond of her," said the director in a radio interview replying to a question about not inviting her to participate in Carthage Festival concerts.
Elissa replied with words that have a historical truth, as she associated her name with "Elissar" Queen of Carthage. She tweeted in Lebanese dialect with a sarcastic comment saying: "People Come and Go ... and Elissar remains the queen of Carthage." Which could be explained as the festival's director will go and she will remain the queen of sensation and deserve to sing in this festival regardless of his opinion of it.
