How do you get motivated when you get up every day?
Through a bit of music, a lot of drive and doing some sports.

A few recipes my grandmother handed down to me, some spirulina and positive thoughts.

It’s not easy, I even had to audition four times… You need a lot of resolve, to make a few concessions and above all, you need much love and passion.
How do you prepare before getting on stage? Are there any rituals you go through?
Before getting on stage, I take time to concentrate on the choreographies I will be performing. To relieve some of the stress, nothing better than to goof around with my friends a bit.
In only three words, how would you define a Crazy Girl?
An elegant, sensual and mysterious woman.
