® Japonezii sunt foarte sinceri. Dac\ ceva nu le place, fluier\. Pare greu de<br />
crezut. {i-n Rom‚nia publicul e sincer. Sim]i c‚nd `i place ceva deoarece<br />
aplaud\ din tot sufletul.<br />
CUM E LA LONDRA AM AUZIT CA E{TI BALERINA FAVORIT| A<br />
REGINEI...<br />
(r‚de) Nu [tiu dac\ sunt balerina ei favorit\, dar am avut marea onoare,<br />
c‚nd a venit dl Iliescu `n vizit\ `n Marea Britanie, s\ fiu [i eu invitat\ la<br />
dineu. Am stat la mas\ l‚ng\ so]ul reginei, ducele de Edinburgh. Ulterior<br />
au mai fost scurte `nt‚lniri cu regina.<br />
CE E MAI BINE PENTRU UN ARTIST: S| AIB| UN MODEL SAU S|<br />
{I DEVIN| PROPRIUL MODEL<br />
S\-[i devin\ propriul model. S\ aib\ propriile idei bazate pe ceea ce ar<br />
vrea s\ fac\. Dac\ ceva nu-]i porne[te din suflet nu e al t\u. Devenim<br />
altcineva. Asta nu `nseamn\ c\ nu trebuie s\ respect\m [i s\ `nv\]\m de la<br />
al]ii, dar ulterior, `n dezvoltarea individual\, totul trebuie s\ porneasc\ din<br />
propria inim\.<br />

® soul, as spirit No one knows how<br />
a soul express himself... Here comes<br />
the freedm of the interpretation, the<br />
freedom to express yourself as you<br />
feel... Maybe that’s why, every time I<br />
dance it, I don’t get bored and I find<br />
new nuances in this part.<br />
DO PEOPLE COME TO BALLET<br />
YOU TRAVEL IN ALL THE WORLD...<br />
Yes, they do. But in each country<br />
this profession is seen differently.<br />
In Russia you walk on the street<br />
and if people recognise you as a<br />
ballerina you are regarded with<br />
sympathy, people smile at you... In<br />
other countries if you say you are a<br />
ballerina you get strange looks.<br />
WHAT ABOUT THE PUBLIC IS<br />
IT DIFFERENT FROM THE<br />
ROMANIAN ONE<br />
The Japanese are very sincere. If<br />
they don’t like something, they<br />
whistle. Seems hard to believe... In<br />
Romania the audience is sincere<br />
too... You feel when they like something<br />
because they applause from<br />
all their soul.<br />
HOW IS LONDON I HEARD<br />
THAT YOU ARE THE QUEEN’S<br />
FAVOURITE BALLERINA...<br />
(she laughs) I don’t know if I am<br />
her favourite but I had the honour,<br />
when Mr Iliescu came to Britain, to<br />
be invited at a dinner party. I sat<br />
near the Queen’s husband, the Duke<br />
of Edinburg. Other short meetings<br />
with the Queen followed afterwards.<br />
WHAT’S BEST FOR AN ARTIST:<br />
TO HAVE A MODEL OR TO
