April 14, 2023. It’s a day Camille will probably never forget. After a long wait, today the Flemish singer released her first German single “Feuerwerk”, a rendition of her hit song “Vuurwerk”. Although fans of the “#LikeMe” face have heard a little preview here and there in recent weeks. Anyway, Camille herself occasionally shared sneak peeks on her social media, but at the end of March, the first part of the song suddenly surfaced. It is not clear how the audio clip ended up online at the time. In Camille’s entourage, it appears that the shrapnel’s leak was certainly not planned in that way.

It remains to be seen if Camille will actually make it through in Germany, but the singer has been preparing for her debut with our eastern neighbors for a while. The news that the face of ‘#LikeMe’ has plans to also sing in German became known at the end of 2021. It sounded on Instagram at the time: “Germany: I’m coming.” Collaboration with Sony Music Germany guarantees Camille the release of three singles and a full album in Germany. “Best Christmas gift ever,” she captioned social media at the time.

CNR Records, the singer’s record label, was pleased with the news. Tom de Meijer, managing director of CNR Records, stated in a press release at the time that it was extraordinary that our neighboring countries responded with enthusiasm to a Flemish artist. “Especially in Corona times, when every country chooses to support local artists. But we are convinced that Camille will do well in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.”

Over the past year and a half, Camille has taken the time to prepare well. For example, I started taking German lessons to master the language. “During interviews, I don’t want to think about my words all the time. The Germans will really appreciate that I try to learn their language,” the singer said. In addition to the language lessons, there were also many additional exercises. foreign adventure. I am so honored that Sony Germany wants to take me under their wing and will do everything I can to make everyone proud! ”

Last but not least She also worked on a new repertoire with her director, William Weissen. “This is a one in a thousand opportunity to put a Flemish story on the international map,” Weissen says. “I believe Camille has everything to complete a long and successful journey here and abroad.”

For now, experts are cautiously optimistic about Camille’s future in Germany. “If you want to musically conquer a great country like Germany, you need that constant energy,” Mark Haleys, MENT TV’s big man, said in an interview with TV Familie. “But with Camille’s talent and fighting personality as well as the good direction of her management, I rate her chances of success very highly.”

Although it won’t be easy. According to Haleys, it’s all about continuity and commitment. It will probably take about three years before the singer means something in Germany. “Everyone knows that this can be a long-term task. The most important thing will be getting media attention in Germany. Winning a place on big music shows next summer, for example. So that Camille will immediately reach a huge audience.”

It appears that the necessary media attention has already been heeded. Some time ago, it became known that Camille had been asked to “Die Beatrice Egli Show”, a German music program that airs monthly and attracts around 2.1 million viewers. The show in question is also broadcast on Das Erste, Germany’s largest channel. For recordings, the singer flew to Berlin at the end of March. The final result will follow this weekend. For example, Camille will appear among some international stars like Johnny Logan and Mireille Mathieu.

The face of #LikeMe couldn’t wish for a better start, but she’s still looking at everything with a sober look for now. “A contract in Germany has not yet been a breakthrough.” Although she is already cautiously dreaming of the future. “Suppose I have great success in Germany, I may partly live there. But leaving Belgium entirely behind is not an option. Here I have my friends, family and fans.”

So Camille’s Belgian fans get the scoop. The face of “#LikeMe” will perform her German song “Feuerwerk” live for the first time during her performances in Ostend. The singer announced herself this morning during an interview with Qmusic. “I think everyone would find that really exciting.”
