Singer Calogero releases a new album and teases it with a new track. « Par choix ou par hasard » is the title. A myriad of different French accents are chosen to mimic the lyrics of his song, and the music video features them one after another. And it turns out that one of them is a baseball player from the Boucaniers de La Rochelle.
Let’s hear Lena Tourillon tell us about this adventure:
On Sunday, December 4, 2022, I woke up and saw on Instagram that Calogero was offering a chance to participate in his new music video!
There were two conditions:
- Be present on Saturday, December 10, 2022, in Cap Ferret
- Have an original object or outfit
As I love Calogero, I immediately applied by sending a few photos with my baseball uniform ⚾️
I was selected, and the following weekend, I went there!
We were told how the music video would be shot: we would go one by one in front of the camera saying a line from the song. Having read the lyrics just before, I thought the line « C’est rêver tout bas des États-Unis » fit perfectly with my outfit, and bingo, they told me to go for it!
It was truly incredible; I got to talk with Calogero, and I even got a ball signed 😉
I was also very lucky to be seen as we were 70 people present on the day, and some who were filmed didn’t make it into the final cut.
I still thank the filming crew, all the participants for giving us the opportunity to be part of this music video, and thanks also to Calogero for his talent and beautiful songs!
