In my life there was a time when I doubted your choice. Then I went to art school and studied piano and music teacher said I have talent.

Remember that at that time very tightly prepared, every day singing and creating the image. The hardest part was in summer, I generally did not rest.—

I thought that I did not get to make new friends and to join the team because I’m the youngest. But it just so happens that I don’t feel for 15 years and can easily communicate with everyone on the same page. Of course, sometimes there were minor conflicts due to the difference in age, but they remained in the past.—
Are the older children care for you?
Some members treat me like a little sister – love me, take care always help. Others perceive as a friend, and there are those who consider me a competitor. To sum up, most of the guys I feel the love, support, sincerity.—

In fact, every performance on stage with the artist is very exciting. If I know the artist and our duet, I feel calmer. —

Yes, this image of the girl-cat of the anime seemed very strange to me and strange. I felt ill at ease, and I felt that people would look askance. But as it turned out, the audience reacted calmly to my character, and in the end all turned out well. Not prevent even the fact that these songs I never performed.—

I believe that the artist needs to combine dancing and singing. When I lived in Minsk, in a free swinging and athletics. My dad – the master of sports, and we trained together. I really like to do makeup and do hair. People think that I’m great at it. I already got the hang of it – can easily make up yourself and girlfriends to a party.
Let’s talk about the boys. What young men do you like?
I think the guy should be a creative person, not necessarily a musician. The main thing that he was in a rush to do their work. Of course, of great importance also has a sense of humor. As for appearance, I like tall guys who could defend me and be on hand. Tell you a secret, I really like the African Americans of its bright appearance and temperament (laughs). Although, in principle, no matter what human growth and who is he by nationality. It is important that we were soul mates, understand and support each other.
