        25.02.2006 Zurich, Switzerland

        On February, 25 DJ BoBo and Sandra performed in Zurich (Hallenstasion). VIVA was here as well.
        See the interview with both stars below.

Who is your favourite on World Championships?
BoBo: Its very hard to say. I guess I dont have it. I sympathize the teams of Brazil, Argentina, Italy and Germany. The World Championships wont be WM without them. Of course Im the fan of the Swiss football team. I hope we will pass the selection round. Well see who will be playing with us. Maybe in semi-final we will win Germany. I want it so much. Come on, guys! Do it and dont talk much!

On the meetings with your fans you give your attention to each of them. How do you manage it?
BoBo: I see how people are happy to enjoy such a short moment. And when during our conversation someone is pulling me to interview I talk to myself: No, I cant take away this happiness from the people. Yes, maybe I take away my time by giving so much attention to my fans. But I would be worse if I didnt do it at all.

Your video clip Secrets Of Love you shot in Paris Disneyland. How it could be?
BoBo: The representatives of the Disneyland visited our concert and certainly they saw our pirate ship. And they said they want such pirate ship as well. We answered: Okay, lets make a deal. You want us we want you. We want the best from you. We want your area, your costumes, and your lights. Thats the way how the video shootings were arranged. We managed to shoot the video in Princess Castle where nobody did the same before us. It was very professional and excited. We had only 7 hours to shot the video: from 11 pm to 6.45 am. Sandra was very vigorous from 3 am! Till that time I was shot and from 3 to 7 am only Sandra was.

Sandra: Yes, its my time! The most perfect thing is the fact we could use the original Disney costumes. It wasnt allowed to anybody at all. His wife Nancy arranged it for us. I was wearing fairy outfits and felt myself as the real princess as Cinderella in fairy castle. It was so beautiful. It was such an amazing feeling.

You arent sorry you back to stage again, are you?
Sandra: No, Im not of course. 4 weeks ago I had a concert already. Also I have performances on different celebrations. Yeah, my last album was released in 2002 but now I recorded the remix album and in Autumn my brand-new album will be released. Thats why this year I will be touring quite a lot as well as with Rene. Im demanded artist again. And I thought why not if the teenagers are interested in my music. That was the reason why I decided to record a new album. And Im proud of that fact I wrote the texts by myself Oh, yeah, I will be myself again.

You know each other for quite a lot time. Is there something that changed since our first meeting?
Sandra: Absolutely there isnt. I do respect him so much! He does everything by himself, considers everything up to detail and he never lets anybody to decide instead of himself. My hat's off. He and his wife do everything together. He often enters Internet to know how are his fans, what they think about his new song. He contacts with public and this fact make him closer to it. Some artists make a wall between them and public. But not him. And I have much respect to him.

And vise versa?
BoBo: Sandra is more relaxed. She is uncomplicated person. When we talk about work she is very professional and takes care about everything. She wants to do everything in a right way, especially in studio. I even thought: She wants to back again to that deal where she was engaged in before. Thats great! I guess it has its roots from her husband Michael Cretu. She has a perfect musical feeling. Shes very relaxed I even relax with her. Shes perfect!

You worked with a lot of world stars. Maybe you dream about another duet with someone else?
BoBo: No, such collaboration should be developed spontaneously. It can be the prerogative of musical labels which often create the duets.

So you dont have ideal candidate for the duet?
BoBo: I dont. But I suppose that Tina Turner can be the ideal candidate. I respect her a lot, shes done a lot of things during her life. But I guess we dont suit each other. Tina and I are the representatives of the different generations. But if she would sing with Jagger it was the real cool thing.

Sandra: Its a new experience for me. I share a stage with someone else for the first time. I have never had a duet yet, but he has a big experience in that deal. Here I feel much more responsibility than ever because if I do something wrong it will be a big shame not only for me but for him too. Of course it has never happened yet. Im always concentrated on stage to do everything right. Its a perfect experience for me. Especially with Rene. Hes so professional and with him I dont feel that there is some problem.

So you have never had problems with your collaboration?
Sandra: Not at all. We are very good friends and not only on stage.

If one clicks a link "Awards" on your official website there will be a long list of your awards. What do you feel about that?
BoBo: I think the older you are the more you appreciate these awards. At the beginning of a career when you are the real successful super star everything happens so quickly that you are not able to realize that. Even with these awards. You thank politely, you are glad but you cant appreciate it and realize how important it is. The longer your career is the more you begin appreciating such moments. So now Im much more proud with my golden awards than 12 years ago. Weird things happen! To get a golden record today is something unnatural! In eurodance times or in Sandras times CDs have been sold much easier. But today you must do a very hard work to sell at least a couple of CDs.

You take part in Ski World Championships. Arent you afraid of it?
BoBo: I respect such kind of sports. Im the Swiss who was born almost on snow and ice. Before the Championships we will perform on its opening on a stage in the center of a big icy trampoline. On the snow. The sportsmen must jump from the trampoline into the water. That one who jumped further than the rest will be qualified. So thats where we will be performing.
