Helena Paparizou said on television on Sunday that no one can question how Greek she feels inside and reflected on the time she represented Greece with Antique at Eurovision.
"It simply came to our notice then. I think it bothered my father then because I believe that no journalist or TV personality can question how Greek I feel inside," the Sweden-born singer said.
"No one can do this thing, like no one can dispute how Swedish I am," Paparizou continued.
"I am a 'rich' girl because I have two homelands. Many times I do not know which one to put first and which second," she lamented.
"I do not know which one I love less and which one more, it is not possible. These two countries are not comparable," the beloved diaspora Greek said.
"This is good when you are young, that you do not care what people say, because life is now," Paparizou concluded.
