She was interviewed and her adventure has been published in ๐ผ๐๐ ๐ก๐๐๐ก ๐๐๐ in 2005. ๐ธ
Dรฉlia is 19 years old and very talented. A talent that simply allowed her to meet the band, two years ago…
๐ I can't remember the exact day when this whole story started, that particular day when I met Mr L. I just remember that it was a nice day and that I had taken the opportunity to spend some time in Paris. I know an Ali Baba's cave there, a little treasure chest well hidden, in an alley around the rue Rivoli. It's there, in this record store, that I search and find most of the Placebo rarities that make up my collection. It's therefore out of habit that I pushed the heavy black door of the shop that day, without thinking about what awaited me inside... My curiosity pushed me to dive my hands in this indescribable mess which gives all its charm to the shop. I didn't suspect at this moment that the man leaning against the cash register and who seemed to know the salesman well was going to be the red thread of my whole story. As I approached the counter, in possession of my latest find, I saw him cast an interested eye: "๐๐๐๐, ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐, ๐ผ ๐๐๐๐ค ๐กโ๐๐ ๐ค๐๐๐ !". I look at him astonished: "๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ฆ ? ๐ด๐๐ ๐ฆ๐๐ข ๐๐๐๐ ๐กโ๐๐ ?". "๐๐๐ , ๐๐ก'๐ ๐๐๐ก ๐๐๐, ๐๐ข๐ก ๐๐ก'๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ก๐๐ฆ ๐กโ๐๐ก ๐ผ โ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐คโ๐ โ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ข๐ก ๐ค๐๐กโ ๐ต๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐. ๐ป๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐บ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐́, ๐ผ ๐๐๐'๐ก ๐๐๐๐ค ๐๐ ๐ฆ๐๐ข ๐๐๐๐ค โ๐๐ ?". That's all, everything started from there, from this little bit of chance, from this unexpected sentence... We took the time to talk a bit, and I took the opportunity to show my work to him. I have always drawn and I am passionate about art in general. So I often take time to draw the band's members, as one would take time to listen to a record... It's just another way for me to 'sketch' them, to swallow their words like a placebo... The man was not very demonstrative but seemed convinced by the few reproductions he hold in his hand and offered to show them to Gaspar, who had to see Brian himself during the week. We exchanged our e-mail addresses, then our paths separated, Mr L. taking with him the precious contents of my old drawing bag.

๐ธ The only unfortunate thing is that the drawings of Steve and Stefan were never published. I'm sure they are just as good ! I also wonder if she went on drawing them until now. I'm curious how it must look like, don't you ? ๐
