After her wonderful televised performances in Lodz, Poland, on New Year's Eve, and quite a lot of nice singing, dancing and skating by Katerine on YouTube, this interview is terribly disappointing. She doesn't even know the name of Ann Vissi (who tours a lot around Europe), and seems to know precious little of anything else about European pop music, let alone Greek or even Belgian! Lara Fabian? Katerine can only mention .... Beyonce! Elena Paparizou would be a great example for Katerine to emulate, continuing the rise of bicultural multilingual European artists, but she can't even remember that Greek-Swedish winner of Eurovision. Turkish-Belgian Hadise? She could have mentioned all of these to bolster her bid! Eurovision is like a political campaign, and being able to conduct attractive, persuasive interviews in as many languages as possible (even if only Dutch and English) in as many countries as possible is a big part of doing well in ESC. And all she needs to talk about is pop music ... not a tall order. Sorry, exam failed. Sigh.
