Sidewalks: You have appeared in many magazines and covers. Some very sexy photo spreads. Do you like doing those? Any favorite ones?
NastaZia: At the time I loved doing all the photo shoots. Being on a cover of a magazines was something fantastic for me. I was feeling very shy when it came to the more sexy photo shoots, but i think that [modeling] helped me overcome fears and gain more confidence. Some of My favorite photo shoots were Max, Playboy, Maxim and Red Believers.

Sidewalks: You told us you were on TV as a presenter. So, tell us about some of the programs you have been on and what were your roles on them.
NastaZia: On the first TV Show, I was working there as a fashion model for about a year. The show was called “Proinos Kafes.” Later, I worked as a TV Host for two years on a night show. There were the two main presenters and me. We used to have celebrity guests and interview them. My role was a bit more like breaking the ice situation and making funny and shocking questions. It is an awesome show, and one of the most famous shows here in Greece. It’s called “OLA.” I really loved it.

Sidewalks: You said music is a recent, new career path. How long did ago were you singing? And why are you making a jump as a recording artist.
NastaZia: I always loved singing, since a child. I have been writing lyrics since I remember my self. I gained more confidence from show biz and decided it’s time. I love music. I love singing and writing lyrics. It’s so much fun.

Sidewalks: Who are you favorite musical performers?
NastaZia: My favourite are Tokio Hotel, Adam Lambert, Tommy Joe Ratliff and BOTDF. They are super awesome and inspiring.

Sidewalks: Let’s talk about your music. From your previous music videos that you made, you had a punk/rocker style. It looks like you are moving toward being a pop singer?
NastaZia: I love changing style. I love rock and punkrock, but I must admit, apparently, pop suits me a bit more.

Sidewalks: Thank you for giving “Sidewalks Entertainment” an opportunity to be the first TV show in the USA to play “Call Me Baby.” Tell us about the making of the video. Who are the people in it?
NastaZia: I’m so happy that my music video premiered for the first time on “Sidewalks TV.” Thank you so much for having me on your TV show and thanks for the interview. “Sidewalks TV” Is fantastic. “Call Me Baby” was directed and filmed by me.

Amazing friends from USA, Australia, Greece, Canada etc. Friends from my hometown Galatas and many more amazing people. Special guest star in my music video is the amazing actor Ronnie Gene Blevins. I had so much fun making it. Everybody in the music video are super awesome. The video also has amazing adorable pets, too. The cat that is in the video is my baby girl Twinkle. Even friends of friends that i didn’t know took part, and I consider them my friends too now. They are all amazing, and I want to say Thank you to all.
