Felix had earlier also placed the importance on why she listens to Beyonce especially. A few years back, Felix revealed that she listened to Beyonce’s Diva, and it helped bring the best out of her. “For me, it’s very specific. I have to listen to Beyoncé, ‘I’m a Diva.’ I have to get that alter ego on. I have to go to that different place. I’m a really laid-back person, but when it comes to the track, gotta switch it on.” Felix said.
Felix even once posed for a photoshoot as Beyonce from the singer’s 2003 album, ‘Dangerously in Love’. “I don’t consider myself a diva at all, but the song has a bit of an attitude and I inherit that when I step on the track. I think about winning and not really caring about anyone else’s feelings and just caring about myself in that moment,” she had said.
