An interview about her new television step in the presentation of the renewed “Power of Love» his SKAI gave by Katerina Karavatou in Down Town Cyprus and Yiannis Hatzigeorgiou.

-Do you like this new cycle of television course that you have been following for the last year, presenting shows-format and not live?

“I didn’t know, in the past, what these shows are, because I had never done anything similar, with a specific project. Only once, a long time ago, I did Alpha for a short time on the show A Bride for My Son, but it wasn’t the same and had nothing to do with what I’m living right now.

Some time ago I felt, however, that I would like to make a change, to see what it’s like to do other things, to try something different – but this is not always possible. Especially for a man whom the rest, the channel managers, have in their minds to do something very specific, categorizing him in part.

So this change was not easy to make in the first place. In my case, there had been some knocks in the past – ‘My Style Rocks’ wasn’t the first – and when they suggested ‘My Style Rocks’ to me at first it seemed strange, then they explained to me how they came up with it and why they came up with it me, so I decided to take this step.

From the first weeks, when I understood how I can develop within these projects and what I can do, but also under what working conditions, I began to think that I am a very lucky person».

-Have you thought, however, about the comparison that – possibly – can be made with the previous presenters of format-shows that you present, such as, for example, now, with Maria Bakodimou, who presented “Power of Love” five years ago, which you started presenting too?

“But, Maria is a very basic reason why I am doing this project and I agreed to present it! (laughs). Because I really appreciate and admire Maria – both as a presenter and as a person.

The truth is that I called her after I agreed to present “Power of Love” and she was extremely giving – in fact, I remember her saying on the phone: “Don’t you ever do it!” – and then we had a really nice chat together .

What I generally try to do on set is to bring to it my own way of thinking, my own knowhow, my own experience, my own feelings, my own personality and character me, as I do with everything assigned to me».
