“Te cunosc de undeva” (I Know You from Somewhere) is the Romanian version of the talent show, Your Face Sounds Familiar. The first series premiered on 17 March 2012 on Antena 1.
This year season sees Alexia Ţalavutis and Dima Trofim transforming to … Michael Jackson!
Alexia is a 31 years old actress and singer and Dima is a singer, dancer, actor, and former member of the LaLa band both from Romania. Both will be performing “THRILLER”
Alexia said: “I was really shocked to receive Michael Jackson from the first one! I expected to start with something lighter, but … We spent 5 hours at the makeup booth on the day of the gala, without any break. We did not dare to eat, for fear of spoiling the makeup, out of respect for the work of the whole team, which is a colossal one. For our moment in Thriller we used special makeup, latex casts and many effects carefully worked by the team led by Gabi Creţan. The black lenses gave us great headaches, because they are quite opaque, and the orientation in space became a bit difficult, especially since the Ant (our choreography teacher) took the butter out of us at rehearsals, and the movements were only allowed to be impeccable!”.
“The ultimate challenge to this show is to sing and dance at the same time and, of course, not to forget about acting either, bringing live on the stage I know you from somewhere! references from artists’ videos. What we do is very hard.”
The couple will be performing on today (Saturday 30/04) show on Antena 1
