Early last week, personal pictures were taken of Lebanese singer Alissa and French model Emanuel Bordalini in their cozy matrimonial apartment in Lebanon. Lebanese director Salim Turk who was witness to the marriage, revealed all the details regarding openly, reported the Arabic magazine Sayidaty. 

 

Salim had previously took a team of decorating professionals to a grand hotel in Beirut where they arranged a room/suite to look like a married couple's paradise especially for Alissa and Emanuel. The makeover of the room was made in order to shoot the new music video "Agmal Ihsas" (The Best Feeling) for Alissa, in which she plays the role of a married woman. 

 

The new video marks the first time throughout her career that Alissa takes on the role of a married woman, an experience she revealed as intriguing. Turk said that the audience are in for a real surprise with an extremely romantic love story of a married couple, who show the world what the meaning of love is. Turk added that he looks forward to the experience being the first time he directs an extremely romantic music video. Alissa will release the song "Agmal Ihsas", which she has hired a professional well-known male model from France to take part in, hopeful it will find the same success as "Ayshalak".  

 

Alissa stressed that she does not attempt to be seductive in her music videos but she is rather a very daring person unlike other singers who try and imitate her movements with the goal of seducing their audience. With regards to Lebanese singer Ragheb Alama's comments on how he was the main reason behind her popularity after their duet "Bitgheeb Bitrooh" (You Go and You Return), Alissa said that she benefited from her experience with him, but it was her commitment to her career that made her known. She added that he has the right not to want to work with her, but what matters is that her audience recognizes her as a singer.  

 

Alissa admitted to having two plastic surgeries one for her nose and the other for her lips. She comments “I see nothing wrong with improving my looks even though I do not believe that looks are what brings a star closer to his fans but instead his charisma and a beautiful voice, which I thank God I have both.”  

 

Finally it was revealed that Alissa is currently involved in a serious love relationship, but there is no marriage plans so far, even though motherhood is a dream of hers. She added that she would never get herself involved in any relationship with someone in the same career field as herself saying it creates too many complications. –Albawaba.com
