"Well, I've got 3 cats. Their names are: Chicca, Vicky and Gnignina (who I call Ninina for short). All 3 are girls! Anyway, Chicca is 11, Vicky is almost 8 and Ninina is aged 3."
So you must like animals then?
"I love them! I'd like to get a dog but I don't think my 3 cats would approve!"
You're in heaven and god tells you that this time round you're going to be an animal. Which animal would you like to be?
"That's not a difficult one to answer-it'd have to be a Cat!"
Why a cat?
"Because I'd be able to eat and sleep as much as I wanted-all day! Plus I wouldn't have to worry about not being able to fit into that skirt I'd bought the previous year!!! I'd eat my favourite food: sardines and anchovies. I'd hang around with my feline friends in the open air. I'd sit on my owner's lap and purr with delight whilst being stroked and loved!
This all depends on whether I find a good owner or not though!"
So why is it you love cats so much?
"Do I really seem to give that impression!!!!!
Well, I'm a really independent person. Cats seem to reflect this personality. They're strong and independent. Dogs, on the other hand, need an owner and suffer without human contact. Even so, cats are loyal to their owners just as much as dogs are and suffer greatly if and when abandoned.
Cats are very clean animals and wash themselves with their saliva that is disinfecting.
They are intelligent and generous-bringing presents every now and then!! They can be very affectionate and obedient and even psychologists say that stroking a cat after a stressful day at work, is an excellent way of relaxing.
I think I've made my point!"
Do you like insects?
"I'm not really keen on them, but I do like the bug and ant characters created by computer-they're really quite sweet!!!"
If you didn't have success as a singer what other job would you liked to have done?
"I would've liked to have been a teacher, although a teacher of what-most probably music!! Infact, I visited a school recently and pretended I was a teacher for the morning! That was fun!"
Have you ever been in love?
"Yes, lot's of times - at least I thought I was! Thinking back in retrospect I realise they were simply crushes I'd had! I can honestly say that I've only ever been in love once!"
Is there somewhere else in the world other than Italy where you'd like to live?
"I couldn't possibly choose between all of the countries I've been to because I've liked every country. But if you insist, there is one place that sticks out more than anywhere and that's Australia. However, thinking realistically, I couldn't live there because it would be just too far away from my family and friends! I just wouldn't be happy without them around! Let's just say that I'm happy enough to have been able to have experienced a part of each of them and that there's no-where like home!"
Would you like to become even more successful than you already are or are you quite happy with everything at the moment?
"Oh! What a question! Both! I'm more than happy with the way things are going at the moment, but obviously I'd like my career to blossom into something bigger. There are plenty of other things that I'd like to do. We'll just have to wait and see....!"
