A day after her victory, we went to take a cup of coffee in a cafeteria in L.A. with Soraya Arnelas, right after she went back home to Spain! We ask her about her victory, her career, OT & more!
Q: So, first of all, well done for your victory! We know you came second in OT, but now you won WOSC! How do you feel about this?
It was really a big surprise because with all this artist from all the world...who thinks that a new singer like me can won??...really I feel so cool!
Q: Were you excited during the votes?
Yes!...and also nervous, when the countries started to vote and I saw my country highing places I was so excited, but later I saw the UK highing and I was thinking that they won..really a fantanstic song, and to the final of the votes...3 big 12 to Spain!, so...thanks to all that voted for me
Q: Did you have any particular favourite, or made new friends in WOSC?
Yes!!, I love the ballads...and the Korean entry was fantastic, also songs like the Croatian, the english song or the greek one...
Q: Do you think that OT is one of the reasons why youre so successful?
Sure!...OT gave me the oportunity to learn to sing...before my stance in OT I never sing...only in the bathroom!
Q: Kelly Clarkson, who won WOSC10, won American Idol, which we can say is the American version of OT. Do you think that these kind of reality shows are helping the Music Scene?
Sure!!, apart from teaching yourself to sing they teach you to lose the fear in the stage and to move in it.
Q: And final question! In 40 years time, when we come to write the big book of WOSC History, what do you like to see in your entry?
Overcoat what I enjoyed in my edition and the friends' quantity that I have done, and that thanks to WOSC now I have mas forces to continue with my artist's career.
