Singer Andre who represented Armenia in "Eurovision 2006" announces
that he does not belong to any religious sect. He told a press
conference today that although he was born in an atheist family,
he considers God his chief sponsor.
"During the Karabakh war when I was 8 I sang my first song called
"Prayer" with Christ's picture in my hands. I sang and prayed God to
protect my father who fought in war and to give us victory", Andre
said. He mentioned that he does not avoid saying that he believes
in God, but that doesn't mean that he belongs to a sect. "Everyone
believes in some thing. Some believe in the coffee cup, others in
stars. I believe in God".
By the way, Andre was surprised to find out that his September
26concert in Vazgen Sargsyan stadium has a number of sponsors -
major and famous firms. According to him, no one has ever sponsored
his concerts.
The majority of the tickets of the concert has already been sold
(11 thousand from 14). Andre promised the football fans that the
stadium will not be spoilt.
There will also be guests in the concert: singer Varvara from Russia,
Elena Lisnetski who represented Macedonia in "Eurovision 2006" and
others. During the concert Andre will represent his new CD which is
called "A Thousand Times". After the Yerevan concert Andre will leave
for the United States and a number of European countries in order to
give concerts. He will return to Yerevan on December 12.
He also mentioned that the video of his song "Without you love" is
still broadcast by a number of European TC Channels. Besides, he was
invited to the celebration of the Independence Day of Ukraine as an
honored guest.
Let us add that on September 2 in connection with the 15th anniversary
of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic the National Assembly of NKR awarded
Andre a medal as a singer devoted to his homeland. Andre who is from
Artsakh by birth accepted the medal proudly.
