Romy Monteiro has disappeared from the showbiz in a silent way. She would have display divar behavior and have fooled Buddy Vedder. Now she responds for the first time. “That doesn’t feel great.”
She was on her way to becoming the new television talent in our country, but Romy Monteiro did not get that opportunity in the end. At the end of 2013, she disappeared silently from the tube and she almost lost all her odd jobs. Not she, but Edsilia Rombley suddenly stood next to Buddy Vedder to present the annual Christmas music gala.
Bad reputation
The conflict with Buddy – he would never want to work with her again – would have to do with Romy’s alleged divar behavior. What exactly happened is unclear, but according to private boss Evert Santegoeds it has been clear for some time that she is not the easiest to work with.
Evert also pointed to her musical crash: “She would also play in The Bodyguard. Not every evening, but a few evenings a week and there was also a big fight behind the scenes. She did not show up at some point, so she has a problem with her reputation, I believe.”
What’s the matter?
What about this all? Romy responds to the Beau Monde. “I chose to take it easy for a while, because I had to recover and strengthen. During that reset I went to look: what did I still have energy for? That turned out to be singing.”
“Of course I thought it was fantastic to act in ‘GTST’, to be a coach next to Trijntje in It Takes 2 or work with Máxima for a TV program. But sing, whether that is for a full Ziggo Dome or on a birthday of twenty people, that is what my lucky cup fills.”
Divar behavior
And then that divoring behavior? What would buddy be so angry about? What is from where? “If you are not going well and you read something like that in the media, then that doesn’t feel great. Of course I wanted to say what was really going on, but I was advised to leave it, because people will always have something to say about you.”
“Plus, if I had responded, I should have said what was going on with me and I didn’t need that at that time, because I didn’t see the light at the end of the tunnel yet.”
Burn-out
Huh? What was there with Romy? She was tired. “When I broke through, I got a lot of offers in one go. In addition to The Bodyguard, I went to dance, dance, dance and I got a presentation contract. The opportunities continued to flow in. Everyone around me said:” Grab what you can pack, you have to forge the iron when it’s hot. “
Quite soon she passed herself, she says. “To name an example: during a show by The Bodyguard I broke my arm. It actually had to be plastered for six weeks, but after two weeks I went on stage again, because the show must go on and you don’t see pain.”
To cry
The result? “I also had to cry for the smallest things that misunderstood – think of eating that an hour was delivered an hour late. Although I really started to admit that I was not doing well when my body said: we no longer do this.”
“I got intense, physical complaints. Some too private to share, but think of RESTLESS LEGS. And the stress hit my voice. When it no longer went vocally, I had to take back gas, “she concludes.
