2 | “Aloha. Wait for me, gently. I'm just a turtle, not too fast. We're going to go crescendo! But no, I'm a speed turtle. It has to rock. However, I took the time to refine my beginnings. Must say that I am self-taught. Between my crush for my discipline and my real beginnings, I had to wait a few years. I did well, result, immediately a reward. And since then I have remained faithful to my expectations and to my audience. I do not lose the North! ".
“Besides, I even go much further than that, I am a traveling turtle. Head for the horizon. I'm always happy to go back to where it all started, home. Even if ultimately, at home, it's the scene. ". |
3 | “The Turtle comes out of its shell for another week. Either way, I had no idea it could be any other way. For my other competitions, I have never been last although I have sometimes been first and I am quite proud of that. I like to get good grades. I am the proof that we can get there, you just have to believe in it and give yourself the means. And then there are the people that life puts in your way who sometimes change everything. For the moment i had a lucky star |
4 (Kids Week) | About how he looks like : He has blue eyes. I would give it around 40 years old. He has big eyebrows. With his clothes, he could be prince charming. He's quite tall
About how he sings : It makes you want to cry. It relaxes a bit, except when he sings. Sounds like a boy singing girl. If we listened all day, we would sleep. |
5 (Love Week) | “I am an adventurous turtle, an adventurous turtle, a wandering turtle and yet it was in my living room at home, a few hundred kilometers from here that I had the click. I would like to make a statement to the person who gave me the faith, who made me want to want to, to follow this path. I know that he has been a guide for many, that he has accompanied many young talents, some of whom I know well, even very well. Her voice, I don't know if it's the most beautiful, but it's the one that paved the way for me. I too would like to provoke as many emotions with my voice. We had the same hairstyle, we could have the same influence on people's lives, it would be wonderful. |
6 | The adventure continues for the turtle. As you know, a turtle can live up to 120 years. As much to tell you that you are not about to get rid of me. That said, some people think I'm already old, which is not very nice. But maybe it's because you've known me for a long time. That must be it. Then, you have to have a certain passion to give everything in front of millions of people. Suddenly, the turtle is no longer a century old. People often have a false image of me. I do not know why. My style, my look, my passion, my career. However, abroad my style is quite common, it is in France that it is less known. If so, maybe I would be a turtle queen in my field. Afterwards, to put an end to this question of age, maybe my duet with the mythical singer confused the tracks. Who will know ? » |
7 | It's almost the end of the Mask Singer adventure for the turtle and his friends. And no one can say who will win the trophy. You would have to be a mentalist to guess that. And even if I know some, I am not. In my career, I have had the chance to meet and even work with very different people. My idols, for example, those who inspired me, who made me want to follow this path. If I was a naughty turtle, I would even say, this voice. If I had imagined for a single second that we would one day form a duo. As for the rock voice, it was really unexpected. But that must be the sweet magic. It's been going on for over ten years. And I have no intention of stopping there. The tortoise still wants to discover many things. And show lots of things to the public. But piano, piano, everything in its time. For now, it's Mask Singer. Andiamo! ". |
