Paula Mitrache - Life

Life

Mitrache was born in Bucharest, Romania. After winning the title of Miss Bucharest, she became a singer, model, and actress. She sings in Romanian, English and Russian. She participated as the international host of the Festival di Sanremo 2004 and of "Stasera pago io revolution" of Fiorello. Her father was an engineer, and her mother is a pediatrician.

Her primary residence is in Bucharest, but she also stays in Rome, Milan, Naples and Bari, Italy.

The meaning of her stage name is Haiduc, an "outlaw" or "of outlawry," e.g., Bulgarian, Serbian or Romanian outlaw-type hero who helps the poor (similar to Robin Hood or Tadas Blinda) or the rebels who fought the Ottomans when they occupied the Balkans for over 400 years (1453-circa 1900). (Plural form: haiducii, hence her stage name.)

Famous quotes containing the word life:

    “Guilty, guilty, guilty is the chant divorced parents repeat in their heads. This constant reminder remains just below our consciousness. Nevertheless, its presence clouds our judgment, inhibits our actions, and interferes in our relationship with our children. Guilt is a major roadblock to building a new life for yourself and to being an effective parent.”
    —Stephanie Marston (20th century)

    “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
    —Bible: New Testament St. Paul, in Romans, 6:23.

    “The sentiment of virtue is a reverence and delight in the presence of certain divine laws. It perceives that this homely game of life we play, covers, under what seem foolish details, principles that astonish.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
