Unsuccessful candidate New starshe had been humiliated by the jury before releasing the song a few months later (no less cult!) Butterfly of Light and to triumph on the Internet, where the clip has made several million views.
A short-lived success that failed to launch her career and despite several appearances on reality shows, the young woman quickly fell into oblivion.
