Following Spain’s standout Eurovision showing, Chanel Terrero enters a new chapter filled with heightened emotion and renewed momentum. Three weeks after the contest, the artist contemplates the flood of feelings stirred by her performance and the public response, translating a moment of national pride into a personal journey forward.
SloMo, her high-energy track, earned third place with 459 points. Now Chanel is preparing for her first live appearance since the festival: a performance of the song at the 2022 Queen’s Election Gala during the Santa Cruz de Tenerife Carnival, a moment that keeps the spotlight on her while she charts the next steps in her career.
Even with the celebration ongoing, the artist and her team are still unpacking the implications of the result. In discussions with Efe, Chanel described their position as extremely strong and noted how the achievement has built a powerful momentum that is being cataloged and understood day by day. She underscored the team’s confidence, saying the elevation in visibility has created a platform with lasting potential.
Chanel reflected on the rare opportunity to be the national voice at a historic event, calling it an amazing and unique experience. It offered a chance to meet a vast network of people and to encounter thousands of new experiences. While she teased upcoming projects, she did not share specifics yet. Doors are open and others slightly ajar, inviting careful choices about the path ahead. Much lies ahead on the horizon.
During broader conversations, there was mention of an eight-song collection that could form a debut album and the possibility of joining the cast of a widely known series as part of a future project. Chanel clarified that nothing has been signed yet and that many developments remain possible, ready to unfold with time and momentum.
Yet the spotlight also carries a downside. The shift from anonymity to public life brings its own set of challenges, and Chanel acknowledged that managing the transition can be demanding. Focused, excited eyes and raised public attention can feel overwhelming, but she is navigating the change at her own pace, learning as she goes and acknowledging that fame is not a manual anybody carries from birth.
With success shaping the near future, Chanel looks toward the Tenerife Carnival as a lifelong dream realized, a moment she has cherished since childhood. The road ahead includes more performances at major festivals, possible film projects, and collaborations with other artists. She named peers she admires and would welcome the chance to work with someday, including Nathy Peluso, Beatriz Luengo, Lili Expósito, and even global icons such as Beyoncé and Christina Aguilera. The door remains open to any artistic direction, driven by the belief that ambition paired with hard work turns dreams into tangible opportunities.
While Latin roots continue to influence her sound, Chanel is open to exploring different styles and genres in the future. She stressed that the next chapter is not yet defined and that there is ample artistic terrain to explore. The journey continues with a focus on new opportunities and meaningful collaborations that could shape the next phase of her career.
