Barbara Bobak has finally spilled the tea on the real cost of her new album – and spoiler alert: it’s not a pretty story! The singer poured over 100,000 euros into songs, music videos, and costumes, and now admits she’s on the brink of bankruptcy because of it. Yes, you read that right – over one hundred thousand euros! While many think musicians just rake in cash and splash it around, Barbara reveals the harsh truth: it’s a constant cycle of spending and barely making ends meet. “I invested so much that all I have left is a bread roll,” she says bluntly. She doesn’t even work weekends because that would be a problem, and lives a modest life – cooking at home, no luxury vacations, no flashy designer brands. Despite having strong parental support who help with daily chores, the financial burden is massive.
But wait, there’s more! Barbara also revealed she doesn’t have security because she’s not confrontational and doesn’t want to flaunt herself. In one of her music videos, she even appears disguised as a man. When asked which female singer she’d date if she weren’t married, she cheekily said Dara Bubamara, calling her endlessly fun.
She opened up about her vices too – electronic cigarettes are her only vice now, and she used to drink ritualistically but quit when she realized it affected her voice. People offer her drugs, even in places where her father is present, but she refuses and laughs it off.
This story shatters the myths about musicians’ lives and shows how tough it is to succeed and stay afloat in the industry. Barbara Bobak is proof that it’s not all glitz and glam; behind the scenes, there’s a lot of sacrifice and financial struggle.
If you thought being famous was easy and money just flows in, Barbara will quickly set you straight. So, what do you think? Would you invest that much money in your dream? Or is it better to stay humble and live quietly? Drop a comment and let’s see who’s on which side!
