Lara Scander Speaks Up About Her Mission



The Egyptian, Lebanese, Italian, Californian starlet Lara Scander who might as well be the first Western pop star to have their career launch in an Arabic country is global star. With her roots spanning in four continents focuses on English songs. When she first appeared on Star Academy few years ago, she was the all English singer who left a great impression on Arab viewers.

She is clearly comfortable in Western pop where she fits so well judging from her music video The Mission is You. She is currently working on an English album that will find a market in the Arab World, but I hope this young starlet manage to establish herself globally without losing her root. I am thinking using the Shakira model.

She is a true global star that started in a little town in Columbia, it took her a decades but now few can deny she is a global star, her world cup performed in 2006 and 2010 attest to that. I noticed in the interview Lara is not too comfortable in Arabic and she does not seem to have interest in Arabic music, other than the essential old songs of Fayrouz and Abdel Halim. I think that needs to change a little, After all Shakira still open her concerts with an Arabic song.
