Rola Youssef Saad is a Lebanese pop singer and model who emerged in the mid 2000s and is most commonly known for her public feud & rivalry with fellow Lebanese singer Haifa Wehbe and her collaboration with Lebanese singing Legend Sabah.
Orphan, Rola Saad always felt unlucky. Her chance, she got it thanks to her voice. She entered show business first as a model and later alongside the famous classical singer Sabah in a remake of her song 'Yana Yana" which was a big hit in 2006 and catapulted Rola Saad immediately in the forefront of Middle Eastern musical scene as one of the best emerging female singers of the year. The song topped charts lists and achieved huge sales and its music video was aired on all music channels across Arab countries.
Rola Youssef Saad started her career as a model, then later on decided to venture into singing after former model Haifa Wehbe''s breakthrough into the song industry.
Rola ranked #8 on the list of Sexiest and Most Desirable Arab Women for 2009. She dropped a few positions the following year and came 21st in Top 100 Sexiest Arab Women 2010.
She first appeared in a music video for one of her earliest songs "Leih Teamel Keda", an electro pop track heavily inspired by one of Amr Diab's songs. The video has mysteriously disappeared from circulation ever since.
In 2004, Rola released that same track in her first album "Ala Da El Hal" produced by Alam El Phan, followed by several singles including: "Ala Da El Hal", "Leh Te3mal Keda" and "Amot Wa Shouf". Rola''s first songs had a synth-pop feel, far more interesting than her later work which seemed to conform to a shabi style.
It was only until 2006 however, thanks to a duo with legendary Lebanese singer Sabah, that Rola Saad really made it on the Arabic pop scene. "Yana-Yana" was a remake of a famous song from Sabah''s rich repertoire. They released together a music video that became widely showcased on most Arabic TV channels. The duet was such a great success, that Rola went for a similar collaboration in "Dal3oua". Rola Saad also released her second album "Kol Al Gharam", produced by Melody Music, which contained these singles in addition to hit songs such as "Sehrohom" and "3an Eznak Ya M3alem".
Rola then released three separate singles "B3edak Ana", "Habibi" and "Nawyahalo"(video feat. famous Turkish actor Kivanc Tatlitug).
Rola then had her first experience as an actress in an Egyptian movie called Al Ghourfa 707, which was released in 2008.
In 2009, Rola Saad released her third album "Al Fostan Al Abyad" produced by Rotana Music accompanied by three other singles "Basbastelo"(video feat. Liliane Nemri), "Bicharafak" and "Shayfak Odami".
In the summer of 2010, Rola released an Egpytian popular song entitled "Eih Da Eih Da".
