I was really afraid it would bring bad luck to me.
We had the chance to attend the trophy presentation in Cannes during the special Dupex program on NRJ Belgium with Mike and his team. Héléna did not hide her joy. “It’s crazy, it’s really a super quick consecration“, she began. “People always told me: ‘you’ll definitely get it’. I was really afraid that this would bring bad luck to me. You never know! So yes I had a lot of expectations but I am still very surprised”she told us, before returning to her journey on video for us.
A highly anticipated album
Remember that in addition to the Belgian revelation, Héléna Bailly is also nominated in the category of French-speaking revelation of the year, against Pierre Garnier, Jeck and Jungeli. The young Belgian also recently announced her first tour and the latter is already sold out. Tickets sold out so quickly that online sales sites even encountered some problems. “At first I was bad, and I was even sad that the sites crashed like that. I felt guilty about something and I felt bad about it. And then I took a step back and said to myself that it was still very cool that people wanted to come see me so much.”she explained to us on this subject. “I prefer to start with small rooms which fill up quickly and then continue later with larger rooms. Otherwise we no longer have any objective.”
I really want this album to be perfect.
Finally, if you are wondering when Héléna’s album will be released, you will still have to be patient. In fact, the young singer revealed to us that the release was not right away. “Some songs are already recorded, but others are still in the mock-up stage. I really want everything to be perfect and that takes time. I co-wrote each of the songs and now I’m trying to put it all together. It’s not always easy to find a common thread between all the pieces. It’s a real headache.”
Héléna Bailly will soon be doing her first tour: “It’s a dream to finally be able to come and meet you”
