M: Today's guest is singer Alisha Ryan, who was the winner of a well-known TV talent show a few years ago. Tell me, Alisha, was becoming a famous singer something you'd always wanted to do? ,F: Not really, no. I'd always enjoyed singing of course, but the idea of becoming a star never occured to me until I saw Katie Wyatt, who'd been in my class back in my secondary school days in a talent show. And my brother said I got a better voice than her. I suddenly knew it was something I at least had to try to do. ,M: And how did you feel when you first went on live TV, and you had that victory? ,F: Well, I didn't actually sing that well. I was annoyed with myself and I thought my family and friends were a bit disappointed, too. At one point I was convinced I'd lost, so afterwards I was just glad when the scores were announced and it became clear I hadn't. ,M: You did in fact become famous overnight. ,F: Yes, I realized that the next morning when the national press had all the news about me. ,M: I imagine they said a lot of nice things. ,F: Yes, though it was mostly about how I had the right look, how stylish my clothes were and that sort of thing, rather than how I'd actually performed or what they thought of my singing voice.
(A) M: I heard that it's all about your singing style on the press. (B) M: I am afraid I did not quite catch what you were saying. Please repeat it. (C) M: It was all about your appearance on the news of the national press. (D) M: They concerned mostly on your beautiful voice.
