Even her 2014 Brazil song got a boost and is back inside YT top 400 and has over 500k daily views now (fast approaching the 1B mark). They better hire her for the 2022 Qatar World Cup tbh. She always uses arabian music and dances so it would be perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
