Alicia aylies today tries to make a breakthrough in music with his single Mojo, released a few days ago. On this occasion, Miss France 2017 gave an interview to the magazine Public, edition of this Friday, December 17, 2021.
In addition to her current projects, our colleagues questioned the pretty young woman about her past as a Miss. It was precisely on December 17 that Alicia Aylies was elected, it was in 2016. At the time, the pretty young woman was only 18 years old and had never left Guyana for so long, hence she is native. As a result, she felt lost for a long time. “It was a shock, a total change of life. I found myself alone, far from my relatives, in a country that was unknown to me. I no longer had any benchmarks. Until then, I had only come to France for fencing competitions (sport that she practiced from her 4 to 16 years old, editor’s note). I didn’t even know what winter was! You feel alone, even surrounded. You don’t know who to trust, you don’t know if the people who are by your side will stay after“, she described how she felt at the time.
I found it unfair to have won
Alicia Aylies still went to the end of her adventure, but not without a certain lack of self-confidence. Indeed, the Miss admits having taken time to feel at ease and especially to assume her role of winner. “I wondered if I was legitimate: I found it unfair to have won, when it was not my dream, unlike the other candidates. It took me two good months to feel like I belonged! Even in interviews, I was asked to tell my life to millions of viewers, to say what I had done before. Except that at 18, I didn’t have a thousand experiences to relate. What did I do before? I was on the high school square with my friends.“
Alicia Aylies has certainly matured the year of her reign, sometimes even before handle very unpleasant situations. During his interview with Public, she explains that she too, like other Miss, was the victim of inappropriate gestures. “In the minds of people, Miss France is the fiancée of all French people, and some take the opportunity to put a hand on your buttocks. It has happened to me to have to crop, to raise a hand … Usually older gentlemen do this! We are very tall, in heels: the excuse of being small often comes up!“, she denounces today nonetheless amused.
