it is sad and speaks of a shallowness of heart. I hope she has a great career in opera. It's about the singing, the music, it is theater. I hope to hear her sing and will look on Youtube for any performances.
I really do hope you get to go see Carmen. I always liked opera until I saw it in person and then I absolutely loved it. I hope it has the same effect on you. My taste runs toward the real grandiose, Tosca being my all time favorite. Would love to see some Wagner but not sure the St. Louis area has a stage big enough.
I was also fortunate enough to hear Pavarotti sing in person many years ago at his prime. That was beyond cool. He just completely mesmerized the entire audience.
Again, good luck with Carmen.
