 Such
people are believed to be born under the lucky stars. Carla Gilberta Bruni
Tedeschi (this is the full name she was born with) was born in quite a rich
Italian family. She got prestigiously educated in one of the best private Swiss
colleges, later she succeeded in a modeling and fashion industry and today she
tries to do the same in the music industry. Carla was gifted with the natural
beauty and charisma; she has a marvelous charming voice which appeals to it not
with the strength of it but with the frankness and sensitiveness of it.
Carla
Bruni is of course a many-sided and self-sufficient person. She is a former
top-model with multimillionaire incomes, she also is a woman from the top world
who had broken lots of hearts; she is an actress, an author; she is a singer
who sings her own songs. In 2004 she won the title as the best female singer
from the French music and sound recording industry. Carla is the owner of a
successful sound recording company and a successor of the tires business. But
putting all of the titles and achievements she achieved, Carla Bruni would
leave her step in the history, first of all, as a wife of a charismatic and
colorful French politician and president - Nicolas Sarkozy. This pair has drawn
attention from all media around the world. Not with the scandalous life they
could've lived and not the scandals and gossips that are being created around
Nicolas by his political opponents and foes but with the uniqueness and harmony
this pair possesses. The impetuosity and authoritativeness of Nicolas Sarkozy
is being counterbalanced by his wife's diplomatic, charismatic and showiness
features. Carla can always be half the step behind her husband but still being
an independent person who doesn't get lost in her husband's persona shadow.
Nicolas
Sarkozy's political rating got strongly hit by his tough social and economic
politic views that concern some of the most vital issues for France as well as
by the official divorce with his second wife while occupying a high position,
by his stormy affair with Carla and a fast marriage later on. All of the
factors of his personal life did not make his voters happy. Nicolas' political
rivals keep on searching in the far-to-perfection life of an ex-model and an
ex-singer in order to discredit the presidential couple so that the society and
the media would think different of them. This is because the first lady of the
country should be ideal and perfect. Being a president's wife is a huge
responsibility. It is where there are ten times more obligations than there are
rights and privileges.
The
first ever examinations for Carla Bruni-Sarkozy as France's first lady occurred
when the presidential couple visited the Great Britain. Great Britain's
conservatism, strictness and formalism in combination with the observance of
the diplomatic etiquette made the Great Britain's politicians the strictest
jury at the political arena. The French couple visit to the UK was observed
carefully by the press and media and there weren't a single detail that was
left without notice. Carla Bruni-Sarkozy not only passed the exam and got an «A»
but also won the hearts of all of the British citizens who weren't too shy to
compliment the first lady and even compared her with some of the most
recognizable first ladies in history and called Carla a French Jacqueline
Kennedy. According to the recent public opinion poll twenty two percents of
British people named Carla Bruni-Sarkozy «the most hip celebrity».
There
is no doubt that madam Bruni-Sarkozy has all chances to become the fashion
trendsetter not only in France but all over the world. Her taste, her style
feeling and the professionalism with which she wears her clothes are purely
perfect. First lady's dresses always combine elegant and practical elements in
them. Carla prefers wearing gray classical suits and dresses from the
well-known Paris' fashion houses and black flats so that her husband's height
doesn't get highlighted. However this little secret doesn't stop her from highlighting
the length and beauty of her legs with the help of other women's tricks that
the ex-model is familiar with. Plus the experts point out that in her clothes
Carla often uses lilac and purple colors that add a bit of charm to her image.
This
year Carla Bruni-Sarkozy has for the first time entered the top-ten list of the
most stylish celebrities in the world that was put together by «Vanity Fair»
magazine and published in its September's issue. Carla also came fourth in the
annual rating of the famous persons with good taste and fashion in clothes by a
British magazine «Grazia».
Carla
Bruni-Sarkozy responds with great love and respect to her husband in the
numerous interviews she has given and in her book «Carla and Nicolas: The True
Story». According to her she feels really secure with him. Getting to know
Nicolas has changed the way Carla has viewed the marriage and made her regret
lots of the things and mistakes she has done before. She said that there's
nothing more she'd want but to live with such a powerful and imperious but at
the same time sensitive and understanding man like Nicolas for the rest of her
life.
An
active diplomatic activity doesn't distract madam Bruni-Sarkozy from art and
creative activities. In her songs both melodic and lyrical one can hear the
charm of the French chanson. The singer herself is writing the most of her
lyrics. They are the reflection of her inside world and the world view. In the
July of 2008 her new album came out and it was called «Comme Si De Rien N'Etait»
(«As If It Never Happened»). The album, despite the criticism it received from
the music experts, has taken the leading positions in the national charts.
Unfortunately the singer had to cancel her concerts and tours for as long as
her husband stays the president of France. According to Carla this was done
first and foremost due to the safety reasons. Being a first lady obliges Carla
to always be under the control of the security and this wouldn't be ethical
right to the fans that would come to her concerts, Carla said.
Italian
temperament, French style and courtliness, elegance and style, sophisticated and
penetrated mind and a woman's wisdom, all of the factors have organically and
harmonically interweaved in Carla. And considering madam de Gaulle a classical
Frenchwoman one should consider madam Bruni-Sarkozy a Frenchwoman of the 21st
century who is a proud daughter of her country.
