Lebanese singer Carol Samaha is currently reading a new film script written especially for her, to play the role of a performing artist. The cast and crew are scheduled to begin filming the first scenes of the Egyptian production this summer.
According to the Qatar based daily, Al Raya, Carol is also preparing to shoot a new music video for the song “Keef Bidi Eish” (How Can I Live) from her latest album “Ana Hura” (I’m Free), under the direction of one of the Libky sisters.
Recently, Lebanese fashion designer Nicola Jubran chose Carol to be the star of his new add campaign for his 2005 line. Carol accompanied the designer to Dubai as his guest of honor at the launching of his new Spring and Summer fashion line.
Carol will perform at the opening concert for the Amman Village Festival in Jordan, after which she will head on tour to north Africa.
Carol recently released a music video for the song "Nazalt Al Satair" (I Closed the Curtains), which is sung in the Gulf dialect. The new clip is directed by Lebanese director Salim Al Turk and is based on a woman’s despair over her lover who has abandoned her.
Carol revealed that the new clip is her key to opening the door to her fans in Gulf countries, who expressed a desire to hear her sing in their dialect, reported the London based daily, Dar Al Hayat. The song is Carol’s first attempt to sing in the dialect, but she is expected to find great success since she has become a master at singing in different Arabic dialects other than her own from Lebanon.
