Journalism teaches you to look deeper — to understand people, see past the perfect image, and recognize their true stories, tragedies, and traumas. It gives you the broad perspective needed to run a foundation, to truly grasp people’s needs, and, above all, to bring together a team of people who share your values.
For me, singing is simply another form of journalism. Especially with Aznavour’s songs — they speak of love, betrayal, fear, disappointment, everything real life holds. The difference is that, in a song, you don’t have to choose your words carefully — you pour out the emotion honestly and openly. There’s no mask, no filter. For me, singing is the most intimate conversation with each person in the audience — and an incredible source of healing.
