Friday November 26, users of Netflix will be able to discover a documentary on Angèle.
They will also be able to see this very difficult moment for the Belgian singer. In 2017, the star was contacted to make the cover of the magazine. Playboy : “They want to remake their image (…) They explain to me that the next edition of their magazine will be focused on feminism, focused on the voice of women and that it is no longer sexual at all”. A hesitant time, the sister of rapper Romeo Elvis finally accepted. “I tell myself that it can be very interesting to talk about my music in this magazine (…) that things will maybe change a bit.”
A decision that she will eventually regret since the publication used a photo of her, on which she posed with two peppers to hide her chest. “We had done it a few months before in a very innocent way. And then we had decided not to keep it, not to take it out: as I was blonde, young, with red lipstick and that I was doing a little pout, we said to ourselves that it was perhaps a little too much in seduction. And I was already very afraid at the time of being sexualized without my knowledge. With this photo, I did not feel not very comfortable. I knew it would be misinterpreted “, she explained.
The young woman did not want this shot to be used and lived this “treason” like a humiliation. “I felt humiliated, a public humiliation (…) It was really the combination of all my fears: that is to say to just be summed up to be ‘the sister of’ and ‘the daughter of’, and in a sexual context. It was really my worst nightmare. ”
The singer gave herself open hearted to other moments of her career and also on her outing …
