And not the least: that of French-speaking female artist of the year, facing Santa, Louane, Aya Nakamura and Zaho from Sagazan. « Every year I say to myself “Will I have the chance to be on this stage next year?”. Because it is a profession that is full of uncertainties. I have one certainty: I've been here for 20 years and if I'm here, it's not just the entourage, the work or the albums, it's the public » exclaimed the singer, more moved than ever. It must be said that Vitaa has a very busy end of year.

An intimate first minute where the singer immediately proclaims: “ My name is Charlotte. Just saying it, you don't know what it costs me “. Through this extract, Vitaa explains that she has always had a hard time loving herself and explains how her weight has really affected her. “ I have been much rounder in my life. I was 15 to 20 kilos heavier than my current weight. I think my brain got stuck on how I looked » she says in voice-over.
And yet her friends tried to reason with her: “ People tell me “You have an illness, you don’t see yourself as you are” “. The 41-year-old artist also talks about his relationship with success, fame, and the other side of the coin through criticism. “ Since we're not constantly in the spotlight, we don't realize what it's like. To endure criticism, comments, insults… » continues Vitaa : « Everything you can get when you're a public figure. The people who are close to us, in the shadows, it makes them laugh because they don't experience this thing. But when you live it and you don't love yourself, it's actually harder “. A first extract that touches the hearts of fans. “ I see you the evening the documentary comes out, double emotion that evening, because I'm going to watch it after the concert » writes a user on Instagram.
