Uh excuse me, have they never seen Joyce DiDonato? Or Danielle de Niese? As an American, this interview is embarrassing. Opera is and always has been cool in my eyes.
Anna is my hero. she has inspired me to pursue my own dream of one day being a world famous opera singer. its crazy i know... but if she did it in those circumstances then im sure i can do it as well. Anna u r amazing and i love u so much for never giving up =) you are my inspiration.
Audrey Hepburn?Please dont make me laugh Anna Netrobko is so much more beautiful that it is not even worth comparing them but I guess there is no accounting for taste
@rayclentchris I know you are not I spent a lot of time in America and I also know this was made for those people who probably read tabloid newspapers
As far as attractiveness What about Anna Moffo, young Rise Stevens, Roberta Peters, Dorothy Kirsten, Blanche Thebom, even going way back Lina Cavalieri, Geraldine Farrar, Rosa Ponselle, or today Fleming was/is quite attractive. List is endless. People who think opera singers are or need to be fat and ugly are ignorant and opera doesn't need to be made 'cool.' That attitude leads to ridiculous 'modern' stagings and prioritizing looks over voice.

What's with the lame and outdated stereotypes about opera singers? There are some who look like movie stars and some who don't. There are some who are very big, and some who are thin. Who cares? Size and image only really matter in certain repertoire. An obese Violetta might be strange, but no one will bat an eyebrow over a rotund Azucena. If they can sing and act I don't care what they look like, and there are far better singers than Anna. You can't see their faces in the opera house anyway.
Ugh some opera fans are such snobs. I think its great opera is being thrust into the 21st century. We need opera stars like Fleming and Netrebko to introduce the beauty of opera to the masses. I'm all for making art accessible, even if people get their first taste of it on Good Morning America.
Sexy opera singers besides Anna (and there are a ton) - Fleming, Persson, de Niese, Callas, Moffo, Petibon, della Casa, Dessay, Garanca, Te Kanawa, DiDonato, Damrau, Gheorghiu, Tebaldi, need I continue? These are all the cream of the crop in terms of both beauty and singing. Of course, Anna tops this list as the loveliest of them all, and what a voice! Who could forget her Violetta, or Lucia, or Mimi, or Manon, or the countless Prokofiev and Bellini roles she made her own?
This segment is so disrespectful. "The new face of opera-- oh, by the way, she can, like, sing." A voice that can break glass? The Mythbusters can break glass. If I were Ms. Netrebko I would have felt a fool after seeing how they twisted her words into cliches.
"Fat ladies" omg, that is so rude.. :S As if everyone pictures fat ladies? What the.. And as if opera is about the weight of the sopranos.. Clearly good morning america is uneducated. This was so awkward to watch !
How about Anna Moffo, Tebaldi and many other very attractive female opera singers. Leontyne Price is another, in fact I can think of many beautiful women with fine voices while very few hefty ladies come to mind.
Opera is musical drama. When there is a comically fat tenor or soprano it destroys the magic of the dramatic moment.

It's not Anna Netrebko who shattered that old stereotype of opera singers. Rosa Ponselle, Maria Callas, and Renata Tibaldi were all beautiful women who sang opera several decades before Anna.
@zucchini2007 So true. Today's singers - sopranos like Renee Fleming, Anja Harteros, Sondra Radvanovsky, Diana Damrau etc., mezzos - Elina Garanca, Jennifer Larmore, Denyce Graves, Joyce diDonato, etc. ; tenors -Piotr Beczala, Jonas Kaufmann, Juan-Diego Florez; so many others are very good-looking people. When they talk about people in viking costumes, they think about Wagnerian sopranos, but Kirstin Flagstad was quite good looking. But really, they should look at the Met's flyer.
@zucchini2007 The price range is $25 - $420 next year. But they also sell discount "rush" tickets for weakday evening performances where they reserve 200 expensive orchestra seats and sell them for $20 each before the performance to first people in line. There are also HD broadcasts to movie theaters all over the US, but it's not the same as live performance. BTW - I sent you a couple of related videos, did you see them? I found several more of those if you are interested).
I say goodbye to these pages of Anna Netrebko. I am not available right now, But I thank you for caring enough to write and reply . I am making some changes in my life. Please leave a message if so you wish it. If I do Not return your message, you are one of those changes.
Anna Netrebko by THE LOVE OF GOD, AND NOT ALREADY Allows maa10able, 09avenger, ad80ad, spqrmor and others,will them CONTINUE with your STUPID mantra , BECAUSE AGAIN come back "you-know-who."
Dear Anna Netrebko: There is a saying in many countries worldwide that reads:
"The remedy (medicine) is worse than the disease." Thou Anna, you have a disease (people who attack you) and the remedy (medicine) that you are using is not the most advisable, and until today confirms this reality. Not going to happen ANNA N. is fulfilled the saying, that the remedy is worse than the disease.
Dear Anna Netrebko: I feel deeply inform you, with great sorrow and sadness, that so far I have observed that you have very bad, very bad or poor defenders. Those who defend you, they do a disservice to you or harmful service . Please do not help fight the worst main Enemy you have, rather these supposed defenders bring things worse and result in more injuries, insults and offenses against you, coming from the pedophile monster . These advocates do not help you at all.

He is single-handedly ruining great-opera comments.
Who is ruining the comments ?
A degenerate subject, a subject crazy, mentally ill, a coward, a bit man, a vile subject, an abject and accompanied with other subjects of their own kind, of their same sordidness,meanness, vileness, turpitude. They are Hammer55292, Striker9410, Leoperarm and others.
What's the big deal, mate? You may not like her voice, look, personnality or God knows what, that's your right but, let me ask you this: Why are you so mad, so hateful and disgraceful about her? What force drives you to write loads of posts all around youtube simply to insult this woman? Are you mentally ill?
Are you an opera singer yourself, got rejected in audition and is jealous because she's hot and you think that's why she got the job?
@HateNetrebko wow jealous freak, if u know you're not a fan of her which is fine, then why are you here wasting your time then. there is a simple way just stay away from her videos then simple.
Why do journalists exaggerate so much??!! Besides these idiots (in the video) have clearly never heard of a little soprano called SARAH BRIGHTMAN who'se the most succesful soprano ever, and has single handedly combined classical music with pop and contemporary and she's topped poplists and made videos and sexy photoshoots all over the world before Anna was even famous. I'm not hating on Anna becuase she's great, I'm laugginh at the ignorance of those reporters
Mainstream American media is geared towards the illiterate. It should not be over-analyzed.
I am relatively young (30) and I am a new fan of opera, which I consider to be a true art. The future of opera is bright. Besides, I don't think opera was ever 'music for the masses'.
the opera industry is NOT desperate. what a load of crap. Journalists really talk such rubbish. The notion of a fat lady singing opera was overturned well over 40 years ago when maria callas came to international fame as a svelte diva. They need to do more research.
@jrr1234567890 be real it's very hard to compete specially with hip pop, pop and rock on top in the music industry. Specially here in the US. I don't know that many people if any that are even into Opera. I, on the other hand am a sucker for it :)
@Joskun opera isn't trying to compete with mainstream music, that's a false comparison. Opera, for better or for worse, has always catered for the privileged few, the elite of society. It originated as a form of entertainment for royal courts in italy during the renaissance.
@jrr1234567890 they really do need to do more research.. opera industry "desperate" indeed.... it has been me and others like me who are 'desperate' to get tickets to sold out performances all over the world.
I remember literally crying outside the Vienne Stads Opera because I could not get one single ticket for the whole week that I was in Vienna !!
@barsicat donskie kasaki eto bivshie saporoghskie kasaki, kotorie pereselilis tuda mnogo let nasad.v podtverghdenie - hor donskih kasakov poyut pesni na ukrainskom yasike :-P
well Callas, Schwarzkopf, Hallstein, Mofo, Tebaldi and a few other beautiful ladies were actually the exception I think. Most operatic singers do not look that well basically because if such vocal talent is rare, the combination with another one (physical beauty) is even rarer. Let alone the rest of the talents (acting skills, actually high IQ etc)
so they are trying to lure in the younger audience by having a hot lady perform?
Nothing against Anna, I like her, not a huge fan but that seems extremely shallow. I remember when I was 16 and I listened to Callas, Anderson, Ferrier, Damrau, Moffo and the likes and It was the beauty of their vocals that attracted me, not physical appearance.
Do you prefer if the singers on stage simply wore Jeans and Birkenstocks and sang next to dumpsters in an alley? Of course presentation is important. If she can sing well AND is beautiful, all the better!
To be honest, I wouldn't care if Netrebko wore jeans and a t shirt. It's nice to see and hear a performance but for me, what I hear is a lot more important than to what some lady is wearing. Albeit I would be worried if she was singing behind a dumpster, sounds a little shady.
Anna is a very beautiful, accomplished opera singer with an amazing voice and as well, dramatic actor and dancer. (To me anyway.) Jenkins is very good but not on the same level, yet.
they both have breasts they don't mind showing off, but neither of them have the emotion needed to keep opera alive. if all opera is turning into is just sex, than count me out. these new singers have no idea what the term artistry means and it sickens me to see where opera is plummeting. and how eagerly people are following it there.
Please bring back artists, show me a woman who can sing and bring me to tears, not raise a tent in my pants.
@Loismustdie26 - You have got to be kidding. Obviously, you haven't watched many of Anna's videos. She is an exceptional dramatic opera singer, and singing is only one of her many talents, not to mention her beauty. : )
I've listened to a lot of her videos, and was actually not disappointed wither her Lucia at the met last year, however, everything else she has done is so bad I can't begin to like her.
Sure her voice has an amazing timber to it, it is pure, incredibly well trained, succinct, and powerful. It's a gorgeous voice, but a voice with no artistry. She hits all the notes, but hits every one with all she has, no variation, and it makes for very bland (and therefore hard to stomach) listening.
no doubt she's well poised, classy, and clearly a nice woman, I'm rallying against this sex-ization (at the helm of which is Netrebko and Peter Gleb) of opera at the detriment of its musical integrity.
People are picking up on it all over the world, opera is no longer this stuffy hoity toity institution. but people are so excited about making opera sexy that they seem to be missing the point. it's about the music not about the bust line of the soprano.
What goes on outside the opera world, however silly, is hardly the point. My thoughts on Adam Lambert are really irrelevant.
There's been this big push to get people interested in opera who weren't before. and while that's a wonderful goal, i think everyone can enjoy opera, they're going about it in a bad way.
If you want people to enjoy opera as it was meant to be enjoyed, teach them how to enjoy the music, don't just give them busty females who can't sing like the greats can.
Are you asking what differentiates their voices, as in you can't hear the difference? or as in how are either of them getting work because they're both so bad, because I have an answer to each.
I admit she has a good voice and beautiful to look at , but that is her and opera does not have to change!! . I like the fat ones too Men and women !!! So dont get ride of those beautiful voices. I think it is shallow to say that the singers have to be like her. She is her own and she is lucky to have a nice package. Still Let the Fat lady and men sing !
Yes, her technique is not perfect. But let me tell you that I'm an opera lover and I know about this stuff. Anna is extremely good, she is amazing, a goddess!.
If you want to hear a real vocal disaster listen to Katherine Jenkins. Her voice is very unpleasant to the ears, even she pose as the pioneer of classical crossover, while the artist who created this genre is british diva Sarah Brightman.
Cant see Jenkins as a vocal disaster, as she doing very comfortably in her life and i wish to have disaster like she ve got! Do like Sharah Brightman as well
To annanetrebkobasher, please check out Ms Netrebko singing O mio babbino caro and just listen, rather than watching. Her technique in singing all the higher notes in this aria is the best that I have heard during many years as an opera lover. If you still don't like her singing after watching that video, perhaps you should go back to pop.
I agree but do I agree so much that I'd make a youtube account just to comment on a video of her being interviewed on some retarded morning show? Probably not.
She has very good voice, not the best, but she's very, very good. And there is her beaty . You don't have to write things that you all write about her. It's not nice!!!! Anna rules!!!
What y mean not the best!? Opera is not only vocal, coloratura and other technique things! Nowdays opera it is also a spectacle, a sight wich at last attracts young people to the opera art and this very good! To critisize is always easier! As to me I adore croatian singer Dubravca Zubovich but I don't compare and don't critisize anybody. regards
She is always making a mistake of raising her larynx and that diminishes the color of her timbre. The correct technique is to sing with a low larynx and open throat.
Now I understand what she is just PR-project, but no way a singer. All that bullshit what she said about vodka, it's absolutely false and russian never say tost "na zdorovie". What a fool... An attractive fool.
I just watched her "Traviata" DVD and she's a HELL of a singer. If she wants to make videos that appeal to the MTV crowd, so much the better. Too many opera fans are dying off and if there aren't enough younger ones to take their places, the art form is doomed.
She has a dynamic range of a popera singer, no depth, no variety of tones, monotonous, shallow, very poor enunciation of the lyrics and no precise control of dynamics.
Come on! If Callas hadn't lost weight and hadn't made a difference in acting, all those singers would still care little about looks. And I don't agree that netrebko is sooo beautiful and sexy. Fifty years ago, she may have been the only one. But nowadays most of them are beautiful AND thin AND good actresses AND good voices.
this is so stupid.

Dear Anna Netrebko: There is a saying in many countries worldwide that reads:
"The remedy (medicine) is worse than the disease." Thou Anna, you have a disease (people who attack you) and the remedy (medicine) that you are using is not the most advisable, and until today confirms this reality. Not going to happen ANNA N. is fulfilled the saying, that the remedy is worse than the disease.

Why do journalists exaggerate so much??!! Besides these idiots (in the video) have clearly never heard of a little soprano called SARAH BRIGHTMAN who'se the most succesful soprano ever, and has single handedly combined classical music with pop and contemporary and she's topped poplists and made videos and sexy photoshoots all over the world before Anna was even famous. I'm not hating on Anna becuase she's great, I'm laugginh at the ignorance of those reporters

Mainstream American media is geared towards the illiterate. It should not be over-analyzed.
I am relatively young (30) and I am a new fan of opera, which I consider to be a true art. The future of opera is bright. Besides, I don't think opera was ever 'music for the masses'.
misi2007 2 years ago
the opera industry is NOT desperate. what a load of crap. Journalists really talk such rubbish. The notion of a fat lady singing opera was overturned well over 40 years ago when maria callas came to international fame as a svelte diva. They need to do more research.
Anna was adorable here, she's so russian!

@Joskun opera isn't trying to compete with mainstream music, that's a false comparison. Opera, for better or for worse, has always catered for the privileged few, the elite of society. It originated as a form of entertainment for royal courts in italy during the renaissance.

well Callas, Schwarzkopf, Hallstein, Mofo, Tebaldi and a few other beautiful ladies were actually the exception I think. Most operatic singers do not look that well basically because if such vocal talent is rare, the combination with another one (physical beauty) is even rarer. Let alone the rest of the talents (acting skills, actually high IQ etc)

so they are trying to lure in the younger audience by having a hot lady perform?
Nothing against Anna, I like her, not a huge fan but that seems extremely shallow. I remember when I was 16 and I listened to Callas, Anderson, Ferrier, Damrau, Moffo and the likes and It was the beauty of their vocals that attracted me, not physical appearance.
To me, seems a little silly.

Do you prefer if the singers on stage simply wore Jeans and Birkenstocks and sang next to dumpsters in an alley? Of course presentation is important. If she can sing well AND is beautiful, all the better!

To be honest, I wouldn't care if Netrebko wore jeans and a t shirt. It's nice to see and hear a performance but for me, what I hear is a lot more important than to what some lady is wearing. Albeit I would be worried if she was singing behind a dumpster, sounds a little shady.

they both have breasts they don't mind showing off, but neither of them have the emotion needed to keep opera alive. if all opera is turning into is just sex, than count me out. these new singers have no idea what the term artistry means and it sickens me to see where opera is plummeting. and how eagerly people are following it there.
Please bring back artists, show me a woman who can sing and bring me to tears, not raise a tent in my pants.
Loismustdie26 2 years ago
@Loismustdie26 - You have got to be kidding. Obviously, you haven't watched many of Anna's videos. She is an exceptional dramatic opera singer, and singing is only one of her many talents, not to mention her beauty. : )
Yunginspirit 2 years ago
I've listened to a lot of her videos, and was actually not disappointed wither her Lucia at the met last year, however, everything else she has done is so bad I can't begin to like her.
Sure her voice has an amazing timber to it, it is pure, incredibly well trained, succinct, and powerful. It's a gorgeous voice, but a voice with no artistry. She hits all the notes, but hits every one with all she has, no variation, and it makes for very bland (and therefore hard to stomach) listening.
Loismustdie26 2 years ago
Anna is quite adorable. I love this interview of her.
Yunginspirit 2 years ago
no doubt she's well poised, classy, and clearly a nice woman, I'm rallying against this sex-ization (at the helm of which is Netrebko and Peter Gleb) of opera at the detriment of its musical integrity.
People are picking up on it all over the world, opera is no longer this stuffy hoity toity institution. but people are so excited about making opera sexy that they seem to be missing the point. it's about the music not about the bust line of the soprano.
I'm not moved any more, and I miss that.

What goes on outside the opera world, however silly, is hardly the point. My thoughts on Adam Lambert are really irrelevant.
There's been this big push to get people interested in opera who weren't before. and while that's a wonderful goal, i think everyone can enjoy opera, they're going about it in a bad way.
If you want people to enjoy opera as it was meant to be enjoyed, teach them how to enjoy the music, don't just give them busty females who can't sing like the greats can.
