Rose May Alaba sits bent forward on a bar stool. Her legs are almost stretched out as the stool is high. She wears high-heeled, pointed shoes in a blue-beige-gold snakeskin look, black trousers with large turquoise-coloured patches covering her thighs. One of the patches shows the face of a black person with a chain from nose ring to ear. Between Rose May Alaba's legs hangs a brown bag with a red strap and typical Louis Vuitton pattern, the shape of which looks like an American football. Rose May Alaba rests her right hand on her right leg, the other rests loosely on her left. She looks firmly into the camera. Her eyelids are painted turquoise, the colour of her bomber jacket as well. Underneath, she wears an apricot-coloured long silk dress, open at the front, tied with a bow at the chest and falling almost to the floor behind the bar stool. On the left side of the picture, however, it is draped airily upwards. Rose May Alaba's long black hair is braided into several plaits.

Rose May Alaba

Already at the age of six, Rose May Alaba liked to sing Whitney Houston and Christina Aguilera songs while on the toilet. When her parents recognised her talent, Rose May Alaba took piano and singing lessons and taught herself to play guitar. Since then, the Vienna native has played the role of Snoopy in a musical and wrote the song »Can You Feel It« for the 2017 Special Olympics World Games. With her song »Love Me Right«, she made it to the number-one spot on the Austrian iTunes charts. She discovered her love for Afro beats, which brought her back to her father’s roots, and collaborated with several Nigerian producers. Last year she released her first EP, fittingly titled »My first EP«, including the hit »Lemonade«.
