She, who left the second season of Loft Story on the 7th day in 2002, made her fortune thanks to her duet with Phil Barney, “A child of yours”, released the same year.

I got more than 2 million euros, a lot of taxes, for music and everything around it too”.
Cash that she immediately invested, she says. And to detail: “I invested in small studios. I was 22, so what’s the connection? Now they are rented and are profitable.
