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:

    “Wherever art appears, life disappears.”
    —Francis Picabia (1878–1953)

    “Parents vary in their sense of what would be suitable repayment for creating, sustaining, and tolerating you all those years, and what circumstances would be drastic enough for presenting the voucher. Obviously there is no repayment that would be sufficient . . . but the effort to call in the debt of life is too outrageous to be treated as anything other than a joke.”
    —Frank Pittman (20th century)

    “Presidents quickly realize that while a single act might destroy the world they live in, no one single decision can make life suddenly better or can turn history around for the good.”
    —Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
