The Hidden Face Behind "Chandelier"


Who is the face behind "Chandelier" and why is she always facing the wall?!

The Australian singer has become well known for her latest hit "Chandelier" as well as the contemporary performances given by her dancers, Maddie Ziegler and most recently Kristen Wiig at the 2015 Grammy's. Sia's past work included co-writing collaborating "Titanium" with David Guetta, and starring as the vocals on famous tracks like "She Wolf (Falling To Pieces)" and "Wild Ones" with rapper Flo-Rida. When questioned in a Nightline interview with Chris Connelly, Sia opened up about why she chooses not to show her face. "I don't want to be famous or recognizable. I don't want to be critiqued about the way I look on the internet. " Sia also explained, "I was in Target the other day buying a hose and nobody recognized me and my song was on the radio. And I thought 'Okay, this experiment is working'.  After being a successful songwriter and writing hits including "Pretty Hurts" by Beyonce and "Diamonds" by Rihanna, Sia sees how fame affects a celebrities life. She doesn't want the fame and the paparazzi's following her every move.

I completely respect Sia and her wishes. How credible to stand up and say look, I want to do what I love for a living, but not at the cost of sacrificing everything I love about my life. Not only does Sia express her wishes in such a powerful way, but she really puts the spotlight on her dancer Maddie Ziegler to own the stage and express a creative message through the contemporary routine. I loved watching Sia bring such a different form of art to the Grammy's this year.

While sufficient time gap is huge, designers have said that many animals that have appeared in previous games will make an appearance in The Older Scrolls On the internet, such as the crocodile-headed Daedroth, goblin-trained War Durzogs, and the trained Guars. Series experts will no doubt look out how these traditional animals will be fleshed out in a chronic virtual globe.
