He explained: “Arab stars love to party in Lebanon, and this is what makes them resort to reducing their wages to regarding half.”
The party promoter revealed that contact is currently underway with the artist, Ruby, who expressed her complete readiness to meet her Lebanese audience, commenting: “There are efforts to reduce her wages in order to be present among her fans in Lebanon.”
