Answers with Meital Dohan

Answer 1

You act, sing, and dance--you're a triple threat... but if you could only choose one, which would it be and why?

I would say sorry, I'm not the kind of girl to choose only one. I see all the different platforms like music, acting, and writing as outlets to express what's on my mind and in my heart. I've always been a performer so I go with the flow.

Answer 2

You're an award-winning actress, receiving two Israeli Oscar nominations and an Israeli Tony Award. How did you feel when you were presented these honors?

It always feels amazing when you are recognized for your work. I think in these moments I've just felt utter gratitude, emanating from within and extending outward to all the people that have supported and continue to support me.

Answer 3

What's your game plan right now? What are you going to work on next?

I try to never have a master plan because you have to really take each day as it comes, and there's always so much going on! Right now I have a TV series in development, a film in development and I'm finishing my album! So there's a lot going on and summer is passing me by like wildfire.

Answer 4

What goals do you have for your career in the future?

I think as I begin to amass an even greater reach and extend my audience I want to continue to use my platform as an artist for social good. I think you're given a very special gift to be able to communicate with so many people when you perform, so I want to continue pushing myself to be involved in philanthropy and greater social causes because that's definitely something I connect to very deeply.

Answer 5

Who are your role models in the fashion, music, and acting industries?

In general, I admire people who make a social change and use the art to improve this world and make it a better place. From the fashion world, I'd say Coco Chanel whose story redefined women in the 20th century. Andy Warhol, The Beatles, and Bon Iver are all inspirations to me.

Answer 6

Telling by your wardrobe, you have a strong sense of self. How would you describe your style?

My style is very bold, eclectic and provocative. I love costume, and the game of dress up. I love how an outfit can really be an expression of my mood that day. I always think of my body like a blank canvas, and I get to paint different colors, prints, and patterns on it to express myself through clothes and wardrobe.

Answer 7

You were recently featured in RUNWAY magazine. What was the photo shoot and interview like?

I've to be primped and pampered in a proper fashion, so I always love an editorial shoot. The photo shoot was so much fun! When I'm being interviewed I try not to think so hard about it, because the less I think, the more authentic I'm being. Kind of like now.

Answer 8

Where does your belief and interest in miracles stem from?

I've always been a very spiritual person and I think to believe in life is to believe in miracles. If your eyes are open there are miracles happening everyday and I grew up always knowing that and tapping into that miraculous energy around me. I also created a radio show called Loud Miracle and it was all about people who created miracles in there peoples' lives and the universe.

Answer 9

In your music videos--which have over 10 million views--you skydive, streak, and so much more. Where do you come up with these extravagant ideas for your videos?

I dream them. My dreams are like epic novels or films and usually filled with kind of absurd, really epic imagery and adventures. I think about the meaning of the song even though it sounds silly, usually they'll have some meaning and message and that's what I making sure the video portrays. Since as we know reality can be really challenging, so too the videos tend to be challenging. For instance how do we feel in the capitalistic world as we move through traffic looking for love lost: https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=noO0F8O-bNo
