00:00Hi Mimi, it's the day after, you won X Factor, what is the emotion of this victory?
00:07The emotion of this victory is a very sweet emotion, it's an emotion like a hug,
00:15I was already very happy to be here in Naples, I was happy to be here,
00:21to eat my stuff, my pizza, and I think that finishing this journey with VVM is a very sweet thing.
00:30Listen, you didn't expect it?
00:32No, I'm serious, I didn't expect it, but I didn't expect it because I feel like a person with a musical identity
00:44that is still being formed, and I think that I am seen as a root, which is something that I really like,
00:52I am seen as a root and I think that I am what is still growing, and the tree will arrive in a little while.
01:00I am very happy with this metaphor, because it means that I have time to discover who I am,
01:06I have time to discover the sound, and I have time to understand what to do with music.
01:11So now let's have fun understanding, let's live the journey and let's see what happens.
01:16Listen, you are growing with a beautiful tree, but you said that this tree is not a symbol, but a change,
01:22tell us, what do you want it to be?
01:25I want it to be the fact that when I was little I didn't see people like me,
01:32when I was little I didn't see people like me who did something like that on stage,
01:38who sang with a lot of people, and I think that this thing gives the charge,
01:43I am very very happy to have made at least a child, a child like me,
01:50because it is something that I missed when I was little, it is something that I was looking for a lot when I was little,
01:55because I went abroad to see things, and I think that we have a lot of opportunities in Italy to make music that breaks,
02:03we have a wonderful singing authority, so joining it to the future in my opinion will be a very cool thing.
02:10Who are your idols?
02:12My Italian idols, my Italian idols, my Italian idols, Calcutta, I am a big fan of Calcutta, I love Calcutta,
02:21my trinity is Fra Quintale, Coex and Calcutta, I listen to them a lot,
02:26but on a foreign level I think it is, I think it is Freya,
02:35who is a British singer who is listening to Nipuli in this period, and I really love her a lot.
02:41Good luck to you.
02:42Thank you very much.
