Elissa Criticized!

Lebanese singer Elissa has entered a war zone and her opponents are those women known as ‘seductive singers’ which include Nagla and Maria. The reason this battle erupted is that Elissa appeared in a well known soap commercial and one of the scenes had her in a bathtub. Not much attention would have been paid to this had Elissa not constantly and rightfully criticize all the singers like Maria who also appeared in bathtubs as part of their video clips!

Elissa is Scared to Be Herself!

How many times has Elissa worn a dress that has been worn before by another artist? The women Elissa has copied include Jennifer Lopez, Hayfa Wahbe, Nancy Ajram and just recently Najwa Karam! The first few times it happened we took it as an embarrassing coincidence in fact some of us actually felt bad for Elissa and blamed it on whoever was in charge of her wardrobe! But come on, it has happened over 8 times and it isn’t even that Elissa takes ideas of dresses from fellow socialites and uses them as an inspiration; she copies them exactly and wears them with pride. The most common star that Elissa has copied is Jennifer Lopez, Elissa copies Jennifer’s hair, look and clothes.

Did Elissa Buy Her Award?

Back from the World Music Awards in London, Elissa isn't enjoying the spoils of her victory. She won the award for highest sales in the Middle East but she sure isn't feeling high. She was faced with a swarm of press accusing her of buying the award and not earning it. She was so upset with the accusations she couldn't hide her emotions and lashed out at the press.

The allegations arouse from Hussein Al Jasmi who said that the award was offered to him first for a large sum of money which he turned down. And as you can expect, the press naturally pointed the finger at poor little Elissa who had no comment.

I wonder!

Elissa Beats Nancy at Sales

Although the famous Lebanese singer Elissa's record sales have dropped since last year, she still made enough sales to be number one beating Nancy Ajram.
She achieved the number one post for highest record sales of 350 thousand copies in Egypt for her album "Bastanak" or "I'll Wait for You".

Elissa's sales dropped from 450 thousand last year. It might be due to the fact that her release date was at the same time as the World Cup and the Israeli war on Lebanon.

Is Elissa trying to copy JLO ?

I happen to be a big fan of both Elissa and JLO. And because of that i started to notice how Elissa is trying to copy JLO's style. I understand that competition plays a big role in an artist's life but not to that extreme! Elissa has some pictures where she is wearing the exact same outfit JLO has worn before. Why try to be someone you're not. Elissa is also copying singer Beyonce Knowles, she is seen in various pictures wearing dresses just like Beyonce's, which were exclusively designed for Beyonce by her mom...
