When Anna Ermakova (24) wears her headphones, she is in a different, better world. Then she feels protected and strong, nobody can harm her.
“Anyone who knows me well knows that I practically live in my headphones. Even as a child, I realized that music enhances every experience, every feeling and makes my life better,” the daughter of tennis legend Boris Becker (57) and ex-partner Angela Ermakova (56) tells BILD.

“This album means everything to me. For as long as I can remember, the world of music and film has been my personal refuge. A reliable safe space where absolutely nothing can happen to me,” she says.
“Music gives me a feeling of comfort and security and allows me to be myself. When I wear my headphones and listen to music, I can let go. It helps me to organize my emotions and recharge my emotional batteries. Every song on the album has accompanied me through good times and bad. They are the soundtracks of my life.”
She smiles: “You could also say: music saved my life.”

“My album is about self-reflection and self-discovery. Working on my songs taught me to believe in myself and to stay true to myself. I had a difficult childhood and grew up with a lot of prejudice. The public hated me without knowing me. Only because of the decisions my parents made. For a long time I only lived out my fears, dreams and desires in music because I am naturally shy.”
