    She wants to write a single song done in every language on the planet. (Talk about a glutton for punishment!)
    She needs an inhaler on stage just in case she loses her breath.
    She considered Greek music an ‘acquired taste.’
    Though they had not yet been married, she referred to her boyfriend as her husband.
    Her fansites are more comprehensive than her official website.

    While she remained personally known by her birth name of ‘Elena,’ she opted to use ‘Helena’ for international releases (outside of Greece).
