She’s been offered a recording contract with GRAMMY-nominated music producerJoel Diamond, who wants to make a “huge-classical-EDM crossover hit record” with her and says the first record will be called “Paradise.”
Along with the record deal, two GoFundMe campaigns have been raising money for Zamourka, one with over $62,000and another with more than $33,000and climbing.
