The latest album “Ahla Dunia” (The Perfect World) by Alissa has hit stores, which is expected to dazzle her fans once more with new songs and styles. The singer was able to achieve significant success in the Arab and abroad in such a short time. The new album includes 13 songs by many poets and composers such as Nizar Francis, Nabil Abu Abdo, Samir Sufair, and Sherif Taj.
Alissa filmed a music video for her song "Kul Youm Fi Umri" (Everyday in My Life), which is part of her release. The video clip is directed by director Saeed Al Marouq, which is the first time he works with Alissa.
An Italian model, Lucio Rafinal, was brought specially from Italy to take part in the video clip alongside Alissa. The filming was done in Lebanon at a horse racing field, in an attempt to present a totally new idea for a music video, which has never been used before.
The director revealed that he is always careful not to repeat the same idea for any of the clips he directs, adding that the theme behind Alissa's clip is unique in the sense that it combines different themes at once. The video is a combination of romance, dialogue and the feeling of being young.
Alissa is to travel to Dubai during the beginning of May, where she is scheduled to shoot a commercial for the international sunglasses company Ray Ban. The singer is to be the star of Ray Ban's advertising campaign and will hold a press conference followed by an honorary ceremony for Alissa.
The event was previously scheduled to take place during February, but had to be postponed due to the sudden death of Alissa's father. Alissa will first head to Italy at the end of April to shoot a new commercial for the international soft drink Pepsi Cola. Alissa recently took part in a special conference held in London by Pepsi Cola, after receiving a special invitation for the debut of a new commercial — starring Britney Spears, Beyonce Knowles and Pink. –Albawaba.com
