both are queens

Maybe their children are bilingual.

I don't know how about Simone's son but Naomi speaks both Finnish, Spanish and even English, but don't know to which extent.

I guess it’s already late for Simone or still early? Remember, She has a toddler to take care of. :) And most Dutch people I worked with has the same personality as Simone’s, reserved and listened 100% when you’re speaking.

That's her personality, she always has the same energy in all the interviews and chats, that doesn't mean she's bored, or unhappy or upset, she's just like that and trust me she's happy, I love Simone. Maybe spanish and latin cultures have influenced a lot on Tarja's life. Greetings from Venezuela

Tarja is hilarious she can easily roast any wannabe singer in the modern music industry 😅 .

Agree with you (who wrote from venezuela)..i also see Tarja personality so warm after moving from Finland to Spain(wich i did the same and i can feel the same change on me ...glad to be on the south)and being a southamerican i can understand this. Hugs to this huge rolemodel women and all the fans🇦🇷🌍✨️

Why would she want to give up singing which she loves to do and has built a successful and fun career doing for many years?

@@keithnichols6867 Because she seems to care more about how she looks than how she sings. She is famous mostly for her beauty, not for her singing talent. She was a bad live singer for many years, she didn't care to improve her voice. She cared about makeup. Tarja (and others) is a professional, who takes her singing seriously.

@@nikosv95 Most people in the world including myself and yourself and Simone have multiple areas of interest. Your enjoyment for listening to symphonic metal doesn't take anything away from your enjoyment of other hobbies/interests, or mean that those hobbies/interests are secondary to your enjoyment for symphonic metal and that you will stop caring about them. Makeup/beauty products and singing are two separate hobbies that Simone loves, and her enjoyment of one does not take away from her enjoyment of the other. I do not believe that Simone will ever stop singing until the day she dies, hopefully at a very advanced age.

@@keithnichols6867 I think you missed the point of the op comment ( and mine). Op basically expressed his/her disapproval of Simone as a vocalist. Why? Because she cares more about her image rather than her voice. She was a bad live vocalist for many years. She even sounded subpar in the studio albums at times. She didn't take the time to improve her voice at all. All she cared about was makeup and looking pretty. Her live performances were a disaster.Back in the day there was a big portion of Epica fans who wanted her kicked out of the band and replaced either by Floor Jansen or Laura Macri. That's probably the point of view of the op comment. I am a big fan of Epica's music, and i also think the band deserved a better, professional vocalist and not a wannabe makeup model who, as you said, only had singing as her hobby.

@@nikosv95 my point in my post is that she doesn’t care about her appearance more than her voice or more than singing. She absolutely loves to sing. And I love her voice more than any other singing voice I have ever heard. I have been listening to Epica since 2008 and been a big fan ever since then.
