In the Calogero family, I ask for the girl! Indeed, on his latest album “X”, the singer shares a duet with Nina, whom he had with his ex-partner Marie Bastide, on the song “En harmony”. “ It's me [qui lui ai proposé cette collaboration] because I like his voice. And I liked the idea of singing together, like Frank Sinatra with his daughter Nancy. Nina is already in a very artistic universe, she puts together little films with pieces of string. She is making her way as an actress and as a singer. I let her do it… » confides the artist, proud of the woman who has just celebrated her 21st birthday. For the Christmas holidays, Calogero invited his four children Nina, Romy, Pio and Rita to an acoustic session of their usual duo. Guest in “Le Grand Studio RTL” a few days ago, Calogero was joined on stage by his oldest daughter to introduce their two-part song, before opening up about the pleasure he takes in singing with his children.

“You have to live up to my father”
« I especially sing with Nina! Romy often accompanies me on the piano. She accompanied me on “Danser encore” and “Tylo vert”. The other two are still a little small but they like to play instruments. There are a lot of instruments at home so we play » rejoices Calogero, before his daughter Nina is questioned by journalist Eric Jean-Jean. “ I love writing but my guitar is a bit like a best friend » explains the young budding artist, who works both in front of the camera and behind a microphone. She also has some personal songs in stock! “ Before I was a little afraid of composing, I thought I wasn't capable of it. I am a basic actress. What I like most about this job is the creativity. The Music caught up with me a little. My songs came to me on their own » reveals Nina, not yet ready to take the plunge: “ When it's time, I'll take them out. But I want to make music more and more ».

Obviously, Nina has a lot of pressure on her shoulders because of her dad's musical heritage. “ Yes because you have to be up to the task, he is a very talented man! » she says, before Calogero asks him to review the situation from another prism: “ No it's not true. You shouldn't see things like that. I don't think so. (…) Above all, you must not be up to the task. She has to be herself, and she is herself. (…) She has her universe. Nina, in everything she does… I've listened to her songs and I'm extremely proud. Melody-wise, I think she takes after her uncle and her father. Really “. The singer also highlights his lyrics which “ are very beautiful » according to him: “ She has a general gentleness in everything she does “. So, will Nina come and present her first songs on RTL? “ If I am invited, with pleasure “. To be continued!
