[edit] Doesn't make sense

Anouk was born in The Hague. Her mother is a singer in a bluesband. Anouk was admitted, without any theoretical knowledge, to the conservatory, after having completed only part of her secondary education. She didn't feel at home at the conservatory and dropped out after two years.

As translated to English, the segment above doesn't make any sense. Could someone suggest what conservatory is supposed to say? Rob Church Talk | Desk 17:12, 28 August 2005 (UTC)

Sorry, I translated it too quickly. I meant music academy, I changed it a few minutes ago, along with some other changes. Let me know if there's anything else that doesn't make sense, English is not my first language. Thanks! JoanneB 17:22, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
Conservatory is commonly used in English to refer to a school of music, you were fine. example -- Blorg (talk) 21:31, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Ohio??!?!

are you guys sure she moved to Ohio, US!??... in the middle of redneck land!? ...a succesful european rock star!? hard to believe. better check that information. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.47.19.140 (talk) 20:44, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

The Dutch article states she moved because she could no longer go on the streets in the Netherlands without being harrassed (by fans, presumably). So it would make sense for her to move to some place where she's not famous. McDutchie (talk) 03:03, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hmmmmm

I think mrs. Anouk wrote this article herself. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.251.56.132 (talk) 11:15, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
