Set-2

Who is your favorite singer?

My favorite singer is Adele. Her voice is so powerful and melodious that I can’t help but listen to her tracks whenever I have some free time. In fact, she is a globally acclaimed pop artist known for her exceptional talent.

Do you want to see her concert?

Absolutely! I have attended several of her concerts, and I must say her performances were outstanding. Although ticket prices were somewhat steep, I managed to see her live eventually.

What's your attitude towards pop singers?

Pop singers are celebrities who significantly enhance our lives by providing us with entertainment. Their music can lift our spirits and recharge our energy when we’re feeling stressed from work or studies. Without pop singers, life would certainly be more monotonous and less enjoyable.

Do you prefer attending concerts or listening to albums?

I’d rather attend a concert than listen to a collection of recorded songs. The experience of seeing a singer perform live, interacting with the audience, and immersing yourself in the dynamic atmosphere of a concert is far more enjoyable than just staying home and listening to music.

Do you want to be a pop singer?

I’m not particularly skilled at singing, so the idea of becoming a pop singer has never crossed my mind. I’d prefer singing at a karaoke bar instead. Besides, the life of a celebrity comes with its challenges, including a lack of privacy and constant media attention.

Do you like going to concerts?

I love socializing and going to concerts is one of the best ways to enjoy a lively atmosphere. Moreover, if one of my favorite bands is on tour, I would definitely go the extra mile to get a ticket, regardless of the cost.

Would you want to be a celebrity in the future?

I’m not sure. While it would be wonderful to be adored everywhere and enjoy VIP treatment while traveling the world, there are significant downsides too, such as a lack of privacy and intrusive paparazzi. Considering all aspects, I’m inclined to think that being a celebrity might not be for me.
