The greek version of “Idol” reached its final show and announced this season’s winner some days ago, so, at this point, I’d like to share with you my visit to the backstage of one of their Live shows back in May.
My employer, SIGMA TV Cyprus, works in collaboration with ALPHA TV Greece (yep, both letters of the greek alphabet, is that a coincidence? LOL!) so they sent me to meet the contestants and interview especially the Cypriot participant. People working for the production of the show were very helpful and polite, making sure I would meet everyone I needed to for my stories. The contestants were all so talented, I was amazed by their on-stage performance I wish all of them become successful singers, because they are trully worth it. The greatest surprise of the evening was meeting and interviewing Albano Carrisi, a legend of italian music of the last half century.
Enough said, scroll down to watch the videos and see the photo album.

I need to thank my good friend Mariyanna Karadima, who helped with shooting the interviews that evening. Great work, camerawoman!
Fans of all ages rushed to have their rare, collectible LPs signed by their own idol, Albano Carrisi.
