Nana Mouskouri in aid of Greek fire victims

Nana Mouskouri, the Greek diva who represented Luxembourg in the 1963 Eurovision Song Contest and one of the most successful female singers worldwide, has offered 50.000 euros for the needs of the victims of the tragic fires that left Greece in mourning recently.

Nana Mouskouri, UNICEF Goodwill Ambassadress, has offered 50.000 euros through the Nana Mouskouri - Focus on Hope Foundation. Furthermore, she will be offering all the proceeds from her concert in Geneva on 20th November as well as her fees for her concert at the Royal Albert Hall in London on 29th November.

Nana is still on her four-year World Fairwell tour that has taken her around the globe. After 45 years on stage, she has decided to say goodbye to singing by visiting the places where she performed throughout her career for one last time. Her next stops will be:

21/10 Belfast/ Waterfront Hall (Ireland)
22/10 Dublin/ National Concert Hall (Ireland)
25/10 Cardif/ St David's Hall (UK)
27/10 Gateshead/ The sage (UK)

17/11 Liège/ Le forum (Belgium)
18/11 Esch/ Rockhal (Luxembourg)

The proceeds from her Paris concert will be offered to the Hopiteaux de Paris - Hopiteaux de France Foundation.

Barzin, have you heard her singing lately? She was a great performer, but sadly nowadays her voice isn't what it used to be. It is sad to hear her sing, knowing how her voice was in the past.

THAT IS Nana Mouskouri ! :D
Too bad she will finish her career soon, though it is very understandable !

The money was donated during a special tele-marathon organized by all of the Greek major channels, and was played at the same time on all channels on Wednesday. They raised around 11 million euro. Mihalis Hatzigiannis was also shown live via video from Cyprus and sang a couple songs.

Big deal, that's nothing for someone as wealthy as her. The story of the widow's mite in the bible springs to mind. Why does she have to broadcast it? That takes the good out of it. Only €50,000? she should be ashamed of herself, that's like me giving €5. The queen of elivator muzak indeed!

Diva? That is rather insulting to someone this generous. Well done Nana!
