She was already a winner in our book, but now she has another award to prove it. Carole Samaha's clip for "Wahshani Biladi" (I Miss My Country) snagged her a MEMA Award (Middle Eastern Music Award) for the category of "Best Music Video".

The celebrating songstress sent out a social media statement of gratitude for all her fans that have supported her every step of the way and voted for her to win the prestigious award, according to the Middle East news portal Elaph.

The Lebanese "Lady" can stand a little taller now that her video directed by Vern from France has given her some extra props. An official ceremony will be held to present the awards of MEMA at the beginning of June.

The Egyptian aviation company Egypt Air has even chosen to use the song in their official promotional campaign for their flights.

This momentous occasion comes off the back of two grand performances in Amsterdam that were off the chain.

Now we wonder if her song "Ha Sha'bak" (Your People) will keep her success continuing in 2014.
