Not Going Gaga For Aline Lahoud Arab Lady Gaga



Aline is a young blondish Lebanese singer that has a good voice. We know this because acclaimed singer composer Marwan Khoury just released duet with her few weeks ago. Now she is passed that stage and ready to make it on her own. Back with a new music video for her Zakerny Be Esmak--remind me what your name is.

The title means she either doesn't care about the dude or that the guy is just an idiot. But the new look in this music video might raise some eyebrows as it seems to be made for a different generation. Heavy dark goth has not found a home in Arabia, but aline is giving it a try.

I would say this look is influenced by those of Lady Gaga, the American pop singer with outlandish and bizarre outfits. there are so many cool affects and dazzling colors, but it feels more Western than Arab. The lyrics offer some humor too. This song is made with interdependent free spirited women on mind.

The best part for me is the dedication of this song-- all the way toward the end to a Lebanese diva Sala El Katrib
