My father was a piano teacher, while my mother played the piano: it goes without saying that the passion in me was born very early and that my parents have always supported me, advising me to play the classical piano while I was singing. I lived my life with everyone singing around me – whatever passion I had, my family always supported me. If this doesn't happen, you unfortunately start with one point less.

When I was ten I was very sure of myself; once a year I skied and on that occasion I was always convinced that I would win all the competitions and in fact I did. I threw myself into it without fear. Then I moved on to tennis and I started to be more afraid of making mistakes. I got scared and started making more mistakes than I would have if I hadn't had all that paranoia. I started to doubt myself, to have no self-esteem. On some days it's freezing, on others it's below zero. I am very self-critical and I always want to give my best, I think this is the reason. I feel a bit Sexy Magica: I understand it as synonymous with carefreeness. I do what I feel like doing, I'm myself.

I am in favor of criticism because I think that even negative criticism helps everyone grow, both as a person and as an artist. For me it's important to know from people who don't like you what the reason is for trying to improve yourself. Among the compliments, however, I am pleased when they tell me that I am genuine and simple. I like that it comes out that I'm not a big person. I feel like the same person as before with a little more awareness. Before I was completely out of this world and now I'm realizing that I can face it. Obviously there are people who like me who support me and, therefore, having this little extra awareness doesn't hurt.

Quando avevo dieci anni ero molto sicura di me stessa; una volta all'anno sciavo e in quella occasione ero sempre convinta di vincere tutte le competizioni e infatti lo facevo. Mi buttavo senza paura. Poi sono passata al tennis e ho iniziato ad avere più paura di sbagliare. Mi sono intimorita e ho iniziato a sbagliare di più di quanto avrei fatto se non avessi avuto tutte quelle paranoie. Ho cominciato a dubitare di me stessa, a non avere l'autostima. In alcuni giorni è a palla, in altri è sottozero. Sono molto autocritica e voglio dare sempre il massimo, credo sia questa la ragione. mi sento un po' Sexy Magica: lo intendo come sinonimo di spensieratezza. Faccio quello che mi sento di fare, sono me stessa.
