Yara’s dream collaboration is not with a fellow singer. Speaking from the Mawazine Festival in Morocco, the Lebanese singer said she would love to have none other than football star Lionnel Messi appear with her in a future music video.
“I am a very big fan of Barcelona and I watch a lot of their matches,” the 32-year-old says. “I would just love it if Messi would be in one of my songs. If he ever comes to Morocco for any events you make sure you let me know and I will fly over straight away.”
Yara confirmed that an album of Khaleeji songs will be out in July with an Egyptian follow up slated for release towards the end of the year.
The Mawazine Festival continues until May 28. For more details visit www.festivalmawazine.ma
