She lived in the countries of the languages she spoke. It is a natural process. I cannot imagine living in a country for any time, and not picking up the language. Languages asides, she was a fantastic singer. Loved her voice ! I observed some inconsistencies about her , not singing for a long time when she was close to Onassis. She claims that Onassis did not want her to sing but if we hear another version It was her decision not to sing and Onassis was against it as it was the main attraction she had, to him. Very interesting.....He wanted to enjoy his famous lover, but lost interest when she stopped singing. He decided to win Jackie over, and have a change of scenery. She wanted him for his money and he wanted her for her fame. People living in delusions, in the end, will lose everything. Jackie went on living a long time, with the financial assistance of her new companion who invested her money and made it grow, many folds.......She had a knack for rich old men. She died of cancer but a very rich woman......Ha. I guess Caroline has her money now.

"You need idols, but you destroy them so easily.." An artist and an oracle!

The interviewer is just fine - he is simply asking the kind of somewhat indelicate questions to which everyone wants to hear the answers. Besides, Callas is more than a match for him. You don't see her being the least bit non-plussed or even slightly irritated. Also, never forget - these people being interviewed receive the questions in advance. It's all a bit staged. I know, because I've worked in this business for 40 years.

VERY INTELLIGENT WOMAN!...VERY FASCINATING PERSONALITY...

Quelle magnifique interview !!! Et Maria Callas les vérités d une femme .

A phenomenal talent, totally present, and a delightfully charming woman. Thank you

I have seen countless interviews with the fascinating Madame Callas. No matter how many times I see this intelligent artist speak, I'm continually fascinated, enchanted and intrigued. I feel the same about her beautiful work. Her voice was so layered with passion, intensity, clarity, elegance and a bit of brashness. Totally unique and unparalleled. She also involved into a truly beautiful and elegant woman, completely separate from La Callas.

They were all jealous of her because she was Greek and understood art better than all of them!!! What an unapologetic queen 🥰

Yes , she was fluent in more than languages to do that it is not easy, but many people think that is it not important, but is it very important and difficult to do.bravo Maria Callas.

Simply the greatest of all time in EVERY way.......including, absolutely, the beauty of voice. What a treasure!

But he was as well completely unsuitable for as her husband. He was 29 years older than her and in his case she was the one who eventually left him. But generally speaking she didn't choose the right partners. She went with two way too older than her men, who both were very rich instead of going for someone closer to her age and more artistic. She could choose whoever she liked but she stuck with Onassis who aside the fact that he was filth in his business he wasn't even a good looking man. I don't know how she fell that hard for him!

"The moment the idol happens to be a bit fragile, or is going through a difficult patch, and needs help, that's when she's ruined." This was very strong, but so true at the same time. It reminds me of Whitney Houston and Michael Jackson.

Maria talks about being human but she was the most divine and angelic ever. I never realised how beautiful she was young!
