Humanity has long proven that true beauty is not determined by appearance, and health is not achieved only by medicine. Sincerity, understanding, help, love are some of the qualities that symbolize inner beauty. By receiving these qualities back from other people, we are healed, and this symbolizes health.
She dreamed of becoming a singer since childhood. Her life is directly connected with the circus; two elements are intertwined in her soul - storm and calm. Her name means "sea butterfly", concealing the power of the sea and the lightness of a butterfly. A circus performer, always looking for adrenaline, emotions, adventure. She herself makes her life interesting and colorful, she follows only the call of her heart, trusts only her intuition, which never lets her down. Her songs turn you on and at the same time make you think about life and love. She has three albums to her name: “Circus”, “Seventh Heaven” and “Who Are You?”, and is now intensively working on the fourth. She is a young popular Ukrainian singer, an intelligent woman and generally a beautiful girl - Marina DIA.
- Why did you decide to change your activity and become a singer?
- It all started in the circus, I worked in the “manual balancing act” genre. At one of the rehearsals I accidentally fell, which made itself felt after a while. I went to the hospital, the doctors forbade active physical activity. This ended the career of a professional circus performer. A creative person cannot stop the expressive flow of energy; he looks for ways and outputs for its manifestation. That’s how I found myself in song, besides, my mother sang, and that was my dream. I was offered to sing the circus anthem, everyone liked it, I was able to convey the spirit of the circus with my voice. We decided to move in this direction, the first album is called “Circus”.
- Who is your standard of appearance?
- In fact, you can’t say that, ideality manifests itself in individuality. His excellent appearance and beautiful appearance do not say anything about a person; he can be cold and empty inside, radiating negativity. How can you be happy about a beautiful box, but empty and dirty in the middle? Harmony is necessary so that the appearance is complemented by good emotions and feelings. People give in return what they receive.
My art brings a good mood, joy, a smile and positively charges.
In return I get the same, and it turns me on and inspires me to write new songs.
- What do you do to keep yourself in good physical shape?
- I’m the same person as everyone else, nothing special. In the morning I always drink grapefruit juice, then go for a run and do some light physical exercise so as not to forget the past and stay in shape. Sometimes nostalgia creeps through the circus arena, so I remember it from hour to hour. Probably the secret lies in healthy sleep.
It gives the face freshness and has a beneficial effect on the body. A healthy body must have a healthy spirit; there are times when you only pull out your physical condition with your spirit. And it’s ideal when both are available. And, of course, women’s secrets, where would we be without them?
- You, as a singer, probably just need this...
- First of all, this is very important for a woman, and in general it’s nice to feel in shape and look good. Then there are more prospects, new facets of knowledge open up, a person becomes more open and self-confident.
- Okay, what then is our stay on earth?
The meaning of life is to find the meaning of life. This is an eternal search for truth and pleasure. I am very lucky, throughout my life I have been doing what I like, this is the highest happiness. A song is a lived experience that you share with others; if this is not the case, then the song is not a success. The song is life, and life is the song. We were born to live and there is no need to neglect it. It is important not to be a plant, to receive and give energy, to move.
- What principles do you adhere to moving forward?
- An important factor is communication, sincerity in relationships, and not being alone. Do everything for the benefit of people, surround yourself with people who support, help and love you. And the main thing is not to stop. There are such unpleasant situations that they lead you astray and you want to stop, turn around and leave. It is important that circumstances do not win. We must not follow cases, but conquer them. And then it will be easier.
- What if you were told to make one wish that would come true? What would you like?
- I would sing a duet with Bryan Adams. I like his work, it would be nice if he didn’t refuse (laughs).
