French Eurovision 2011 representative: “I feel sure of my voice, my performance and my music†- INTERVIEW - PHOTOSESSION
- The preparation goes very well, I am occupied with my vocal rehearsals. The work on my voice will continue till my last performance, because to perform at the Eurovision contest is an unbelievable chance for showing the talent. I was following the rehearsals till that day, at last I took the stage today. My impressions are very beautiful. Indeed, it is a great chance to perform at this stage and it is very joyful. I hope that I will not disappoint my supporters on May 14.
- You are considered as one of the main favorites in this year’s contest…
- Indeed, I am proud of being one of the favorites at this contest. But it doesn’t mean anything.
- How do you think, will you take the victory relay from Lena?
- I can not say anything concrete. I know only one thing – I believe in my voice, my power, my music. My song is very beautiful, but I don’t know how this music will be assessed by Europe. I also came here for victory like everybody.
- Who is your most powerful opponent in this contest?
- I listened to all songs and every song has a chance. There are various songs and performances, the contest’s votes can be divided between several countries. My favorite type of performance is opera – vocal, and I can not make any choices. Only I perform in opera genre in this year’s contest.
It is impossible to declare the winner in advance. I don’t have a full favorite because of vocal genre.
- Have you heard the song of the Azerbaijani representatives and how do you assess their performance?
- I have listened to the Azerbaijani song and think that the singing of the love ballade of two opposite genders will impact everybody. The chances of the Azerbaijani representatives in the final are very high?
- What do you think about competition with such popular group like Blue?
- The “Blue†is very native group for me from my childhood. I have never thought that I will perform with this group at the same stage, even I will fight for victory with them. If I win, I will be surer in my power. It will be a great success to win the world-known singers at the age of 21.
