What Your Favorite Operatic Soprano Says About You: a thread. (Ps I love all of these sopranos)
You follow fashion rules like ‘no white after Labor Day’, and you have a taken family photos in coordinating outfits. You’re v intelligent, but still enjoy guilty pleasures like reality TV. You drink white wine spritzers.
You may be an actual Disney Princess, and you believe in hard work, gumption, and always being kind. You may have wanted to be a vet when you were younger, and you have Rossini on your running playlist.
You’re in the Pre-Callas golden age school camp of opera fans, but you’re chill enough to recognize talent and technique when it exists. Or you’re @AshleyEmrick
You’re in the Callas golden age camp of opera fans, but you think she’s really hot and love her for the renaissance of glamour she brings to the opera world. And for her Lady Macbeth. (It’s iconic)
You don’t take yourself too seriously, but whatever you do you are incredibly good at. People underestimate you at first for your matter of fact personality, only to be blown away by you later.
You unironically enjoyed that one Yoko Ono performance. You know the one I’m talking about. You are a cinephile.
You may have murdered someone at one point in your life. People are wildly intimidated by you, but they realize you’re actually very nurturing and willing to share your knowledge with anyone who asks.
You’ve definitely gotten into a messy argument on a YouTube video. You wear red lipstick at 11am on a Tuesday and your underwear probably matches right now.
People call you the cute friend, but you’re actually pretty deep. People come to you for advice, and you give it freely, but you’ll slap the stupid out of them if need be. You bake.
You make friends easily, and love to be outside and in nature. You glam up well, but you’d much rather be comfortable. You’re an excellent card player and you laugh with your whole body.
You have considered abandoning society to dwell in a forest. People think you’re a little strange, but honestly you just like the simple pleasures in life. You knit.
You also love sopranos like Kelli O’Hara and Audra Macdonald (they’re amazing). You will wear costume jewelry at the drop of a hat, and you’ve dressed in a full ball gown for Halloween at some point in your life.
The towels and sheets in your home are always incredibly soft and luxurious. You’ve never been late to an appointment and you multitask with ease, but you’re so nice no one can hate you for it.
You get along well with the new music crowd, but for some reason everyone assumes you’re only into standard repertoire. People have trouble keeping up with you because you can jump from point A to F no problem
You get drunk on $18 martinis. Men are frightened of you, but you’re actually very down to earth, bust-a-gut funny AND smart to boot.
you have very fine tastes, but you’re adaptable to any situation- if someone hands you a glass of $2 buck chuck whaddya gonna do, say no? You’re the queen of not getting your feelings hurt by the naysayers. You own a lot of soft throws.
You can initially come off as shy. You’re very detail oriented to the point that you can miss the bigger picture sometimes. In friendships you ask for advice and actually take it. Your friends are all amazing. You drink beer.
People think that you’re a little flippant, but you’ve actually had some pretty tragic things happen to you. You cling to life’s simple pleasures and strive to fill other’s lives with joy. You drink champagne and own a lot of scented candles.
You still listen to music on wax cylinder. You wear a long off the shoulder chemise to sleep in and you have broken up with someone you met online via handwritten letter.
