Do you think you know everything there is to know about Anna Vissi?
There are two versions of the clip for the song "Ena sou leo". In the first (unreleased) one, Anna had the role of "Stella", played on Kakoyiannis's film by Melina Merkouri, but the final result did not satisfy anybody and was thus rejected!
"One is tired when doing things that he doesn’t feel good about. For me "Rex" was the outburst of so many years, as I was offered an amazing place, in which I had the opportunity to present some aspects of me I always had but had never shown. So, I never felt I did something tiring. Actually I adored the idea of doing such a show. I had always wanted to do it.", Pop corn magazine, 1991
1992
Anna’s separation from Nikos! The news spread like fire and rumors spread everywhere about both of them and the future of their collaboration. The couple, however, proves that they do not care about such matters and continue to live together, even separated. They actually take their divorce long after the year 2000!
An album which denies all rumors about artistic separation of the couple: "Emis" (Us). This album is unique, as it is a joint album. Four songs are sung by Anna, four by Nikos and there are also two duets! The duet "Emis" and the ballad "De thelo na kseris" are the greatest hits of the year in Greece and have both left their own mark on Anna’s career so far!
In December, Anna releases a new album, "Lambo!" (Gold). This time, the first single has Latin influences!
While filming the music video for "De thelo na kseris" (director: Fotini Kotrotsi), Anna is drinking whiskey in reality. By the end of the shooting she is completely drunk, something that facilitated her acting performance for this dramatic song!
For the cover of the album "Lampo", Anna's styling was done by Panayiotis Hatzistefanou, know famous due to his TV appearances
