Anne Sila can boast of having an extraordinary destiny. On October 23, the artist was crowned “most beautiful voice in France” at the end of the first edition of “The Voice All-Stars”. A reward that materializes a first participation and a remarkable career in the competition in 2015. The candidate had then climbed to the final but the public had opted for Lilian Renaud. If the picture may seem idyllic at first glance, things have not been so smooth and sweet for Anne Sila.
On May 29, 2014, six months before her participation in the musical tele-hook of TF1, the then 25-year-old musician was stabbed several times by her companion. Guest of “50 Min Inside” on Saturday November 6, Anne Sila returned to this dark period of her existence. After reviewing her first blind audition, she confided in Nikos. “There, really, I am in a state. I’m really not doing well. I think I’m trying to hold on to life. I’m trying to hold on to something “, she remembered.
“Physical, mental and psychological pain”
Without detour, the protégé of Florent Pagny then returned to the terrible assault of which she was the victim: “I don’t think I really talked about it but I went through a very difficult ordeal in 2014, just before auditioning for The Voice. The person I was very much in love with had a frenzied puff, which is mental illness. He stabbed me with a knife. And I had to deal with all this physical pain and then mental and psychological pain. It was a test for me, a test for this person too“, she testified.
Anne Sila then returned to the circumstances of her casting. “I remember back then I was in bed a lot, because I had a lot of hits, and Emilie, casters of The Voice, would often call me to ask if I wanted to do the emission. It was a little bit earlier. Then there was the assault, and then she called me apologizing, saying, ‘I’m so sorry I bothered you, I won’t call you again’. And that’s when I said to him, ‘No, but, you know what, I’m going to do the show because anyway, I lost everything. Who cares what, I’m going ‘. And that’s how I got on the set “, she confided. And the winner of “The Voice all Stars” concludes: “When I see him again it touches me because I now realize how much it really saved my life to do this“.
