LASGO
The Belgian dance scene takes great pleasure in welcoming the return of an
old acquaintance. After three years of silence, Lasgo is back again, and with a
new face to boot and boost its image. 'I have been singing ever since the time
I could sing,' the attractive 18-year old Jelle van Dael smiles. 'I know very well
it won't be easy to make people forget the chanteuse Evy, but I'll give my all
to the attempt. This kind of opportunity comes once in a lifetime. And I don't
mind listeners taking a critical attitude towards me.' With her head knocking
at the clouds but with her feet firmly planted on terra firma, Jelle is starting
out on her new adventurous journey. But what about this Jelle name? What
gives? Is that not rather a strange name for a young woman? 'Jelle is indeed
something special for a girl', smiles the blonde Jelle, 'but I myself am also a
bit special. I hope to be able to prove that I have what it takes to be taken for
a born stage-animal.' Up to now, that kind of animal magnetism has been in
evidence only to the viewers of JIM, where Jelle emerged as the winner with
'Let's go Lasgo'. Although the first introduction to an audience at large will not
be long in coming. 'I hope to be performing as often as possible,' thus the
lead singer. 'But I am aiming at bigger things. I want not only to become the
face of Lasgo as soon as possible, but be the personification of Lasgo itself,
wholly and totally.' No question then about the ambition that drives this
young performer and about her perfectionism. She may be playful and
lighthearted and a tad unstructured and disorganized, and she may live in a
land that fosters dreams, but, above all else, she is ad rem, that is, she has a
practical side to her character as well. To the question how she feels standing
on the threshold of her new career, her answer is, not co-incidentally, a direct
reference to the title of her first Lasgo-single: 'Out of my mind'.
Jelle van Dael celebrated on 2 May her eighteenth birthday. She lives in
Opglabeek. She is a night-hawk, staying awake into the early morning hours,
then loves to sleep in late. As a teenager, her musical preferences were
widespread, but since she discovered dance, she has become wholly
dedicated to this style.
Memorable quote: 'I have no intention to go prancing about half-naked on
the stage. But I have no objections to being considered sexy.'
