EMELINE Shares Personal Insights in Candid 'My Life In 20' Interview
To celebrate the release of her debut album Emotional Virgin, rising music star EMELINE has participated in an exclusive interview series called 'My Life In 20', where she answered twenty revealing questions about her life and career.
Musical Influences and Enduring Admiration
When asked what album she could listen to twenty times without getting bored, EMELINE immediately named The Clearing by Wolf Alice. She expressed deep appreciation for the band's latest work, particularly praising the depth of their thoughts and the diversity of their musicality.
In a particularly personal revelation, EMELINE disclosed that at age seventeen, she developed a significant crush on fellow musician Kehlani, specifically citing the 'Distraction' music video as the inspiration. The singer confessed that she believes this admiration will be enduring, stating plainly that she thinks she will always have a crush on the artist.
Passionate Advocacy and Personal Experiences
One topic that EMELINE could discuss for nineteen minutes straight without any notes is women's health education. She revealed that she feels strongly about how understudied this field remains and how she has had to educate herself on many aspects that most people don't know. The singer emphasized her commitment to speaking openly about her own experiences to help destigmatize these important health conversations.
Political Awakening and Memorable Moments
Reflecting on her eighteenth year, EMELINE identified becoming politically active and voting for the first time as the most important development. One of the highlights of her life occurred during this period when she performed and spoke at the Women's March in Boston, an experience that clearly left a lasting impression on the young artist.
Sweet Sixteen Memories
When asked about her sixteenth birthday, EMELINE recalled going ice skating with friends from her new high school. As someone from Rhode Island with a March birthday, she noted that her celebrations sometimes benefit from warm weather but often occur during colder conditions. The singer fondly remembered that her mother provided dough so everyone could make their own pizza for dinner, creating a memorable and personalized celebration.
EMELINE's debut album Emotional Virgin represents a significant milestone in her emerging career, and this interview provides fans with deeper insight into the personal experiences and passions that shape her as both an artist and an individual.
