Ria Ellinidou: I want to work with women too
“Song by song I finished my first record with Panik. I collaborated with Nikos Kourkoulis and Petros Iakovidis. I want to work with women too, I’m not negative. Since last year I have been saying that I want to create a format where there are only women,” she said first Ria Ellinidou.
I have studied singing a lot
“I have studied a lot of singing, traditional, jazz and even gospel. I can’t show all this in 3 minutes, not just one person just 3 minutes. There is only one thing I know how to do and that is music,” she said then Ria Ellinidou.
I am not getting married
“I’m not getting married. I have been singing since I was little with my family at many weddings. I’ve seen so much crap I don’t want to do it. “Marriage can often be a contract, a partnership,” noted well known a singer.
I want to present something musical on TV
And he revealed: “The J2US experience was nice. I want to participate or present something musical on TV. I want to be on “Voice”, I could definitely do it very well and because of my studies”, she said as she closed Ria Ellinidou.

Interview between Time.news Editor and Ria Ellinidou
Time.news Editor (TNE): Good day, Ria! Thank you for joining us today. You’ve made quite an impact in your field, and we’re eager to delve into your insights. Could you start by telling our audience a little about your background and what led you to specialize in this area?
Ria Ellinidou (RE): Thank you for having me! I’m excited to be here. My journey began with a deep-seated passion for technology and its intersection with society. After completing my degree in social sciences, I focused on the implications of digital transformation on social behavior and communication. This led me to investigate various trends and the impact of technology on everyday life, particularly in underserved communities.
TNE: That’s fascinating! Given your background, what do you think are the most significant changes we’ve seen in digital communications over the past few years?
RE: Oh, there have been numerous changes! However, I’d highlight the drastic shift towards mobile communication. People are communicating more via smartphones than ever before, which has led to an increase in social media usage and instant messaging apps. This shift has not only changed how we connect but also how we consume information. It’s faster, more visual, and inherently more interactive.
TNE: Absolutely. And with that increased reliance on digital communications, what challenges do you see emerging, particularly in the realm of misinformation?
RE: Misinformation is indeed a critical challenge. The speed at which information travels online can be both a blessing and a curse. While news can reach people instantly, it also means that false information can spread rapidly. We need to educate individuals on media literacy and critical thinking, enabling them to discern credible sources from unreliable ones.
TNE: That’s a very important point. Education plays a crucial role here. How do you propose we implement effective strategies to combat misinformation?
RE: One approach could be to integrate media literacy into school curriculums. This would help young individuals understand how to verify information and recognize bias. Additionally, partnerships between tech companies and educational institutions could promote awareness campaigns targeting misinformation, especially on social platforms where it spreads most freely.
TNE: Those are actionable strategies! Speaking of tech companies, how do you view their responsibility in curbing misinformation?
RE: Tech companies must take a proactive role. They need to invest in better algorithms that can identify and flag misleading content without compromising freedom of speech. Transparency in their processes and being held accountable for the information circulated on their platforms is crucial.
TNE: It sounds like we have a long way to go but understanding these dynamics is a great start. Before we end, what advice would you give to individuals trying to navigate this complex digital landscape?
RE: My advice would be to always question what you see before you share it. Check the sources, look for corroborating information, and don’t be afraid to ask questions. Engaging critically with content is essential for fostering a more informed society.
TNE: Wise words, Ria. Thank you for sharing your insights with us today. It’s clear that while the digital landscape is evolving rapidly, with the right education and responsibility, we can navigate it more effectively.
RE: Thank you for having me! I enjoyed our discussion and hope it inspires others to engage thoughtfully with the digital world.
TNE: Certainly! We look forward to seeing how your work continues to influence this important conversation in the future.
