Perhaps one of the world's most famous sopranos, Sarah Brightman, announced a while back that on Sept. 1 she will be on board Soyuz flight TMA18M bound for the International Space Station hundreds of miles above Earth. And now she discusses what that means for her career.
Brightman is the largest selling soprano as of late with an astounding 30 million records sold. She has also fallen into the limelight when she announced back in 2012 that she intended to heed the latest space traveling tourist attraction.
In an interview at RT, she was questioned about how she could afford the $52 million fee for the 10-day retreat.
"I have paid for the trip myself," says Brightman to Sophie Shevarnadze, when asked about the financial resignation to become the second-ever female space tourist.
