“Once, when I was in America with Belafonte, who chose me to sing with him, he came and said to me,” I want to take out your glasses. I can’t, I suffer to see you with the glasses on stage. No one wears glasses. ” After that, I took off my glasses and sang three nights without them. After three nights, I said to him, “Look, I understand what you think, but I feel very bad without my glasses. First of all, I have a myopia, I don’t see well, and then I want to be myself. I need to wear glasses. If he didn’t want to accept my glasses, I would leave the show completely. And he said to me, “Okay, I’ll think about it.” He went and thought, with his musicians or himself, he turned back a quarter afterwards and said, “You know, I decided to keep you and your glasses”, “, Nana Mouskouri has been told, who has also said: “I’m persistent as a human being. If I didn’t insist, I wouldn’t be what I am today. “
