Christine & The Queens 'healed' by her stage persona

'Tilted' singer Héloïse Letissier, who performs under the name Christine & The Queens, has revealed that creating a musical alter-ego was 'healing'. 

During a chat with Britain's Sunday Times newspaper, she explained that becoming Christine helped her to express herself fully:

"Christine has healed me. She made me happy, and I wanted to share that happiness. So it became a show with dancers, and the music got more pop. Christine became more welcoming. She pushed me to be more daring, to completely let go. And if I make a mistake, I laugh at myself. As I discovered in high school, having a sense of humour can get me out of many troubles."

She added: "Perfect has never been my thing, so I had to find another way. I always say on stage that I am like a broken flower compared to perfect pop singers like Beyoncé, who I love, actually. I am trying to create a new version, a new way to be a woman in this industry and on stage."
