Claudio Capéo recounts his violent burnout: "It was not my life": Current Woman The MAG

If Claudio Capéo managed to live off his dream thanks to the show The Voice, it wasn't always rosy for him, especially after a few years of recording and touring intensively. As he has already mentioned, the singer, in a relationship for eighteen years, suffered a burnout: "After three years, I realized that I had stopped sleeping, stopped seeing my family …", says the singer on February 27 in We redid the TV sure RTL. "I stopped thinking about myself I stopped thinking about the man I was becoming, and was I becoming a good person or not. I forgot the essential". The young man goes so far as to say that he was"unable to think"and unable to "say who I had become". A shock for this dad of a four year old boy who always dreamed of living with music. And it wasn't just the pace he couldn't stand: the beautiful hotels, compliments from the fans … Everything had become too much for him, and it was not long before "twist"as he says himself.

He can't be "wonderful" all the time

"I locked myself up. It wasn't my life. It's gone too far, too fast, without me realizing it ", explains the former candidate of The Voice. Even the compliments, he will end up not taking them anymore: "At the beginning I thought it was great and at the end I was like: But what are they all lying to me ’. I want to be sincere with me, I want to be told when it's not good, but it was always: 'no that's great, that was wonderful'". He thus believes that can not be "great and wonderful all day". "It made me twist a little", now recognizes the singer. Fortunately, this experience will have made him grow up, and now he is more selective in the projects it accepts, so as not to overwork. "We stop saying amen to everything and being super nice to everyone because in fact you get eaten, you often get picked up in the face", explains frankly the one who says to do "as always", but differently.
