For Katrin Siska, the beautiful member of Vanilla Ninja, politicians ae playing a bad game and taking part in elections hasn’t always been the most important thing to her. "Policy is for me like policy", says Katrin and adds, that she goes to elections, if she wants to. When she was young she did not attach too much important to elections, but now she tries to achieve her citizen’s responsibility. “The way policy is making dealings, can’t be called a clean game, but in my opinion there is no clean game around the world at all. Everything has a black dot somewhere.”

Vanilla Ninja beauty Piret Järvis, who is engaged with Kallervo Karu, thinks that marriage isn't for other people. "All the people I know don't rush weddings", says Järvis to Naised magazine. Piret is setting a good example for young fans and annouces that everyone should go for marriage. "In my opinion people should make that choice when they have found the right person, who they would like to live with for the rest of their lives" She continues: "One live in a bulk marriage for some time, because that way you have the possibiloity to split up easily, if living togetehr does not work anymore." Although Piret and Kalle havan't decided on the date, they will countinue with the event. She believes that wedding will be all about the couple.

Chilean singer recommends Vanilla Ninja music. "SON BUENISIMAS!!"
Ricky Sabor was born in Santiago, Chile. He has at least 4 albums on his credit. The third cd 'Amigo Mio' is a collection of his own themes (tropical music), which are heard in Latin nightclubs and radio stations in Stockholm. In December the following year was published his latest CD titled 'Dia lunes', which resulted primarily among Latin in Sweden and also in Chile where it is heard in a large number of radio stations throughout the country. He also participated festivals such as Festival de cumbia de Tensta, Kungsträdgården, Gävle city fest, Midsommarlatinoamericano, festival in Rolandhovsparken and Festival of midsommar enVårberg.

On his blog he recommends Vanilla Ninja music. "They are Vanilla Ninja, the girls from Estonia. They're very good, I recommend. On YouTube there is more of them" Ricky wrote his opinion above the video of 'Dangerzone'. He ends his post with "They're brilliant, aren't they?"

He noticed Vanilla Ninja earlier. On 2nd January he put video of 'Liar' on his official blog. About Vanilla Ninja success in Chile he says "I'm sure they're going to hit the market. Their music is amazing.". Still we wonderend how he liked the performance of "Birds Of Peace" and he answered "Awesome. These ladies rock."

VanillaNinja.cl and Vanilla Ninja Chile are giving away prizes to Chilean Vanilla Ninja fans.

CD Love Is War + Set of Pins + Postcard

How to participate?

The idea is to ask as many times as possible for 'Dangerzone' in radios Hit40 and Carolina.
- For Hit Radio 40 you have to fill the field nombre (name), e-mail, edad (age) and specify the song: 'Vanilla Ninja - Dangerzone'. To send the request click 'Enviar'.
-For Radio Carolina you have to fill the form with nombre (name), e-mail and specify 'Vanilla Ninja - Dangerzone' in otra opción (other option). To refresh the memory of programmers, tell them that they are girls from Estonia who won Silver Seagull at the Festival of Viña 2008 in the field mensaje o saludosor (greetings or message).

Then you must be attentive to the radio and when you hear Dangerzone, write down date and where radio sounded the theme. Then you have to write an annotated email to Concurso@VanillaNinjaChile.com with the information and you will be participating in the lottery of ten CD Love Is War + Pins + Postcard.
Now, ask for Dangerzone!
The deadline will be published soon. Participating only via e-mail.

PS. It's a contest for Chilean fans but would be cool if we all vote for the girls as many times as we're able to:).

Katrin's Summer temptation
"I have a very big temptation, that is the Vanilla Ninja ice cream. This is one of my favourite sweets. I can say that sometimes I eat it more than enough. In Winter, I put the ice cream with pleasure in cocktails and add, for example, bananas or chocolate bars. In Summer, I simply take them with me and go for a walk. And this ice cream is my favorite because it is of our own group. It is a simply good ice cream, so light and very tasty."

Katrin Siska in harmony with life
A few days ago, a new issue of "Stiil" magazine with Katrin on the cover came out. Generally, the interview was on topics like her life, thoughts and opinions. Below you can read some sentences from this article:
"I would be ready to move from Estonia and live somewhere in a new house differently, but not now." "In my opinion life is beautiful and one must enjoy it as it is and not persist in one's own thoughts. I do not like to hear ballads, to think about sad things and to cry."
The whole article of course you can find in the magazine and some scans are available here.

1. What does excite you easily?
In positive mind some unexpected and long-awaited event. For example supergood Summer weather, active holiday trip, meeting with some good friend, whom you haven't seen for a long time.
2. Would you live with 5000 EEK in month? If not, then why?
It depends, WHERE I have to live with this money. For example in India you could have a lot of fun with that amount of money.
3. Many people have something, what they are afraid of. For example: being in a lift or being in a room without windows. Do you have some fobias?
Yes I have, but I'm afraid to talk about them.
4. What kind of men don't you like? Why?
There's no reason... if I don't like them, then I just don't like them.
5. With which star from abroad or from Estonia would you like to make friends with?
I'd like to familiarize more with Madonna to do yoga with her! :)
