Actress, singer and fashion model. Where are all these come from? What was your need to express yourself through that?
Acting, singing and modelling are in my blood. A gift from my parents and my genes.
Define your music genre.
My genre is Pop & Dance Electronic, but I have some Hip/Hop songs too.
Are there any specific experiences that have shaped your music?
I didn’t take music classes. The first two songs were difficult to sing, but now I can sing-record any song in one take.
Is there quality in music today?
It depends on the lyrics and the artists. In some areas, there is quality in music; in some areas, there is not. Classic music is the best.
What are some collaborations you are proud of or some you would like to do in the future?
I love the work I did with UMG. Two of my songs are still in the top 10 radio Pop songs for almost two years.
Do you think working in the public eye, especially in a competitive industry like the music industry, have made a lot of personal sacrifices to make it through?
If you are good at what you do, you can achieve it. It is not much difficult to achieve a good reputation in the music industry if you have a passion for doing something and if you are right and doing everything with full energy.
Are you more interested in acting or singing?
Acting is my hobby. I am interested in singing, but I have been out of the industry since 2021. I love to do charity work the most.
Do you like promoting your music on digital platforms and social media and how much do they help an artist to succeed in notoriety?
Social media and streaming services help a lot to gain fame in a short time.
Describe to us your typical day.
I sleep at 22:00 and get up at 03:30. I shower, and from 04:00 to 06:00, I do my prayers. From 07:00 to 08:00, I have breakfast. I exercise from 08:00 to 09:00 and after 09:00 a lot of meetings, recordings, conferences, etc.
You’re still a young artist and will never stop dreaming, so what are some of your future plans?
I have a get much more than I expected. When I was young, I had fame as a Star Kid/Celebrity Kid. Then I joined acting, modelling and singing. I was Miss Rose of Latvia in 2018 and Pop Queen of Latvia in 2021 & 2022. It was a good journey from Star Kid to Pop Star Queen. I am not in the industry now as I am trying to spend time with my daughters and family. My entire focus is given to charity now and in the future. To enhance my NGOs and help needy people as much as possible.
