Anna Vissi: "It was shocking what happened"

The absolute Greek star speaks for the first time after her accident exclusively to EGO! WEEKLY for "LAV", the relationship with her daughter, Sofia Karvela, the opposite sex and what fascinates her and, respectively, what alienates her from Greek men, while explaining why he got angry with the singers' tax returns.

You have to admit it was the most disruptive, unorthodox and dangerous premiere of your life. What are your feelings at that time?, but also the following days in the hospital;
I would not like to describe anything, because the whole thing that happened was shocking and I don't like to remember it. The only pleasant thing was that it was another proof of love from my already beloved people.

What is different about this year's collaboration with Myrto Kotova in "LAV" from the previous ones;
The goals this year were different due to the new space, but the process was the same and our communication codes even easier. New musical twist, not only in Greece but also abroad. Even Madonna, on her last tour, she had up and coming DJ Navici with her to support her performances.

Have you ever felt like you're being pushed into the background?; You fear that one day this will all end;
All, anyway, they end. With courage one must arm oneself in view of the end and not with fear. Sure, fear helps you create more passionately in my opinion, so, however to answer your question, I come out victorious, it seems. You were concerned about the mess with the singers' tax returns; It pissed me off, because he was passionate. It didn't worry me at all, because I believe that I am an honest person.
