Zorica Brunclik on Life After Surgery and Halid Muslimovic

Zorica Brunclik spoke on the evening of October 21 at the launch of Seka Aleksic’s new album about how she sees life after surgery. She also answered questions from Telegraf and Republika reporters about Halid Muslimovic and a possible change of image. She came to the event with her husband, the accordionist Miroljub Arandjelovic Kemis.

According to Telegraf, the couple coordinated their look: both wore black suits, and the singer completed hers with a scarf. Brunclik did not name the type of surgery or the illness she mentioned, and neither do the outlets that put the questions to her.

What did Zorica Brunclik say about life after surgery?

The conversation about health started with the host’s appearance. Zorica remarked that Seka Aleksic had lost weight, then said: “I think this is a great effort she has put in, and it should be applauded.”

Then she turned to herself. She told Telegraf that after her illness she, too, decided to lose weight, and that the new figure turned out to suit her. On the ban on eating after the surgery, she said:

When I got sick, I firmly decided to lose weight too. I’m joking, that was the reason, and it turned out this figure comes in handy, I won’t gain weight again. I want to eat everything and I wasn’t allowed to, for six months after the surgery I could hardly wait to eat.

All that statement shows is that she had to watch what she ate for six months after the surgery. It does not say when the operation took place.

She told Republika what had changed in her. The singer says she no longer lets anyone get on her nerves:

In my head, after the surgery, I notice that I want to make the most of both of these lives I have, I’m not feuding with anyone, nobody can throw me off my stride, there’s no chance you’ll upset me.

Will she change her hair color?

Asked whether she had considered a new look, Zorica answered briefly. She does not plan to change her hair color, which she has worn the same for years: “I haven’t thought about changing my hair color, do you think that at 70 I should change it? No! This is show business!”

What did she say about Halid Muslimovic?

Halid Muslimovic recently said that for a while he lived with Zorica and Kemis as a tenant and paid them rent. We have written about him before, when he announced the second part of his book and a film about himself. Zorica thinks his remark was a joke that was taken more seriously than intended.

Halid made a joke and it came out serious! I wouldn’t even discuss it, he said himself “I have no idea what got into me”, it just slipped out of him!

She told Telegraf that he was joking and that it slipped out, which is the same message put more briefly.

Singing with Desingerica and the wedding of Nikolija and Relja

Republika also asked the singer about a possible collaboration with Dragomir Despic Desingerica. She answered in a playful tone:

Excuse me? And who would sing? Me, of course, he would be the performance!

She also commented to Telegraf on the wedding of Nikolija and Relja, which, she said, she had not followed. “I didn’t follow it, I don’t have a phone, I have nowhere to follow it, but it’s never too late. First they had a child, now they got married, wonderful. Congratulations,” Zorica Brunclik said.
