AMOROUS ALEXANDER RYBAK
It’s our second meeting with Alexander already. The reason is the premiere of his second album ‘No Boundaries’ and the visit in Warsaw. He tells us about his first loves, dates and disappointments!
13: We talked exactly one year ago. What has changed during that year?
AR:Wow, a lot of things have changed. First of all, I wanted to experiment with music a bit, try something new. On my new album there are of course pop songs, one rock song, one cover of Beach Boys, a musical song, ballet….I also made a rap song(laugh), of course I didn’t rap, but I was singing and playing that I don’t have luck for girls(laugh)
13: Don’t you?
AR: Yes(laugh). There was a girl, one of my violin girls, who travel with me. I even wrote a song for her, I was so in love! Unfortunately, she liked me only when she was thinking I’m unattainable, hard to get. When I wanted to be only with her, she stopped being interested in me(laugh).
13:Do you remember your first date? Or the best date you have had?
AR:My first date? I remember my first kiss. That girl was also a girl from the band. But the best dates was with the Fairytale-girl. It was so wonderful that we didn’t need to meet in expensive restaurants. We were just in love and for us it was enough to spend time together.
13: I’ll go back to changes, what countries have you visited this year? Where did you have concerts?
AR: I don’t remember all countries, it was about 20.
13: And in which country you reached the best success?
AR: In Scandinavia and East Europe, mainly in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus. But here in Poland the situation is strange because I did not promote myself as much here but I have a really big fanclub. Even on Facebook I have a few hundred fans only from Poland. Recently I have meet 50 people, I could talk with them. They were really cool people, mostly girls.(A moment of silence) On the whole there were only girls (laugh) –[He talks there about M&G the day before with Polish fanclub :) ]–
13: Could you be dating with a Polish girl?
AR: Sure! Why not.
13: Even if she was your big fan?
AR: Yes, it could even make the things easier. But now I’m afraid of young girls because when they get what they want I’m getting to be boring for them (laugh)
13: Do you remember your last year resolutions, wishes?
AR: Nooo.
13: Do you have any for next year?
AR: I can make resolutions every day. But it is much more difficult to have rules and to keep to them. For example, the girl I was talking about before, broke up with me for another guy, she met in the club. Then I promissed myself that I won’t date with girls who I accidentally meet in clubs and now I’m dating a girl I met in that way


13: Do you like show-business? Does it have any bad sides? Have you had any upsetting experiences?
AR: Life has bad sides and the show–business is a part of life. I have never had any bad experiences. The only thing which is difficult is the fact, that I travel a lot and, what is acceptable and normal in one culture, can be taken as an insult in another. I have had some setbacks.
13: You’re increasingly recognised. How do you cope with the fame?
AR: That’s very nice. In Norway and Sweden, where people know me well, every day I’m in the magazines, often someone accosts me, wants to say hi.
13:Is fame important for you?
AR: No, but it’s a cool thing. It’s like going to the cinema: it is not very important in life, but it makes pleasure.
13: What would you choose: career and fame or love?
AR: It depends on what you have in mind, because being in love is the worst thing that can happen to a human (laugh). Then you can’t focus on anything, you think only about this person. Every time when I fall in love, I can’t work, create. So automatically, when I choose love, career is impossible(laugh). But friendship is also a feling and it’s cooler, because love often turns into hate. So I would choose friendship instead of glory and fame.
13: Wouldn’t you sometimes like to be just an ordinary, normal person and live somewhere quietly?
AR: But I am an ordinary person! Although in some countries I’m very famous I still lead a peaceful life.
13: Do you have any special way to chill out?
AR: Yes, Play Station games.
13: Grand Auto theft?
AR: Not anymore!(laugh) Now I play ‘Red Redemption’. It’s the same brand of the game, based on a similar concept, but the action takes place in Wild West.
