"I would love to do more music, definitely. That is my true passion. Dance is first and then music"
About this Quote
Calling music her "true passion" is a bid for seriousness, a claim to interiority in a career defined, for many, by exteriority. Electra came up in a 1990s fame economy that rewarded a very specific kind of hyper-visible, highly managed sex-symbol persona, where the brand often mattered more than the craft. In that context, "true passion" signals a desire to be understood as an artist rather than a product of casting, tabloids, or male gaze mythology.
Then she complicates her own argument: "Dance is first and then music". That reversal is telling. It concedes the reality that her body - movement, performance, physical charisma - has been her primary language and her most bankable skill. It’s less a contradiction than a map of her creative identity: dance as the root system, music as the next branch, acting almost conspicuously absent. The subtext is aspiration with receipts: she’s not abandoning what made her famous; she’s trying to expand what counts as her talent.
