For the 2021 Victoires de la Musique ceremony, Apple chose to sing her song "Grandiose", which she already wanted to sing last year, before preferring a more famous title.

“There is something about this song that I can't really explain,” she says.

"Last year that song on the album wasn't featured yet. And since no one knew me, there was something a little more complex about choosing the song."

"I have planned a whole artistic direction"

This year, the choice to sing "Grandiose" was therefore imposed.

"I know it was that one and nothing else. I'm so happy to be able to sing it", rejoices the artist.

And the singer, deprived of concerts since the summer, will not skimp on the staging.

"I planned a whole artistic direction, I thought of the projections of images, the styling, etc.", reveals the singer.

"I'm all alone on stage. But I worked well on the visual of this performance. This year I had a lot more time to do something beautiful also visually."

The artist is delighted to be back on stage, especially since she does not have the same stage fright as during the Victoires de la Musique 2020. "The ceremony last year was very significant for me, I found myself. then in larger media. It was quite intense, "she recalls.

"The fact that it is a second time this year, it helps to de-stress a little. I am arriving in a land already known."

Apple of course hopes to come away with a prize, but easily recognizes that competition is not what excites her the most.
