    After delivering an out-of-the-world performance, The Mayyas hit yet another giant step toward victory.

    Since the news hit the internet and the Lebanese, everyone has been going nuts – and not only the Lebanese – expressing their excitment and affection towards The Mayyas and their edging close to the final win.

    Twitter was trending like crazy with #Mayyas.

    Columbian-American actress Sofia Vergara went out of her way to congratulate the Lebanese dance group on Twitter on this outstanding performance after she had insisted on her instinct of The Mayyas winning and qualifying for the finals.
