Margaret is undoubtedly one of the most popular vocalists in Poland. She made her debut a little over a decade ago, introducing a lot of freshness to the domestic market and presenting perfect, pop songs that foreign stars would not be ashamed of. Soon she decided to move away from commercial sounds and started singing and rapping in her native language. A few months ago, her latest album “Siniaki i cekiny” was released, on which she returned to her pop roots and combined dance beats with exceptionally personal lyrics.
The 33-year-old star occasionally reveals his private sphere to his fans – not only through music, but also on social media or in interviews. In the spring of 2022, Karolina Sulej’s book “Ciałaczki. Kobiet, kto wcieją feminizm” was released, in which Margaret shared a painful experience from her childhood. The singer confessed that she was raped at the age of 10The traumatic event affected her entire life and resulted in, among other things, mental health problems.

Margaret Comes to terms with her traumatic past. The artist’s moving words
A terrifying childhood story was one of the topics Margaret touched on when she was a guest on the WojewódzkiKędzierski podcast at the end of July. The star admitted that everything she does today is marked by a painful experience from over two decades ago.
When I was a child, I was raped and it affected my whole life, who I am, how I was raised, how I was put together, why I walk around with guilt all my life and if someone passes me on the street, nudges me, I apologize. I see it because I analyze it. It is in my every move, in every decision I have made. Now I’m at a point where I’m not afraid to talk about it because I’ve given away a guilt that isn’t minebut the moment of maturing, dealing with what happened to me, plus an international career and pretending that everything was OK, it was some kind of atomic bomb – she revealed.
Margaret was raped at the age of 10. How does the trauma affect her adult life?
Later in the conversation, the artist noted that she would rather not recall the tragic event from her childhood directly. Instead, she would prefer to talk about how the fact that she was raped as a 10-year-old affected her future.
Honestly? At first I didn’t even know that word existed, so it was just an attempt to name what happened. I’d rather not talk about it because I’ll start crying, but we can talk about what happened later.. This attempt to cope with this, and above all this a feeling of guilt that always comes back to the victims of violence and that is incomprehensible to outsiders – she explained.
I think this is a tattoo that will stay with me. I sing in the song “Dance Stupid” that “the message in the bottle did not arrive, today it is my strength” and I really feel that way. Not romanticizing pain and suffering, but I think that those dark corners that I touched at such a young age and was forced to deal with made it so that there are few things in the world that scare me a lot right now – Margaret stated in a conversation with Wojewódzki and Kędzierski.

There should be forced castration for the perpetrator
Poor thing. Good on her for having the courage to talk about it.

10 years old is still a child. People who laugh at this have no empathy.

Next rape or molested. It’s already some kind of fashion for such confessions for PR. It’s sick. We need to treat the legs because it’s too late for the head.
You can see that he is in great pain… stay strong, my love.
‘No’ means no, I do not accept the humiliation of victims and the perpetrators should be punished!
Does she have to talk about it publicly? It’s not a private experience for her. What is it about people that makes them have to talk about everything like that?
She was a wonderful, sensitive, smart girl. But something happened to her. It’s a shame.
Who was that? We have to get him!
I hope whoever did this to her is in prison.
I’m interested in who the perpetrator was.
It’s good that she talks about it. There should be loud campaigns to stigmatize the perpetrators, so that no one dares to violate someone’s body, and certainly not a child’s. I was molested when I was 5 and it’s hard for me to even write about it
Only when reading most of the comments does one realize the scale of such behavior ☹️ everyone, regardless of whether they were a little girl or a boy, wants to hug them and say it’s not your fault. It wasn’t you who were the problem. It was the fault of these degenerates.
I am very sorry, Gosia, that you met such a bad person.
Poor lost girl
