50. Highly unlikely considering his size, but what did Luciano Pavarotti aspire to be when younger?
From Quiz Interesting Facts About the Stars
Answer:
A soccer player
Somehow the idea of the very portly Pavarotti trying to run after a soccer ball is really quite amusing. Luciano Pavarotti was born in Italy in 1935 and passed away in that country in 2007, after a lifetime of sharing his glorious tenor voice with the world. He initially made his name in the many operatic tenor roles he took on, but was also comfortable enough with his self concept that he switched over easily to singing popular middle of the roads songs as well whenever he felt so inclined. Of his own music he sold over 100 million records while he lived, and probably many more since, and the first "Three Tenors" album he cut with Jose Carreras and Placido Domingo in 1990 went on to be the biggest selling classical music album of all time when it was released.
When younger, and before he began his classical singing career, Pavarotti toyed with the notion of becoming a farmer as well. Lucky cows if he sang to them while milking. That would have led to some production. He finally settled on becoming a teacher for two years before he began his classical singing studies at the age of nineteen, during which, in order to pay for his fees, he also worked as an insurance salesman. Oh dear, that's even funnier. In 1972 during a performance of Donizetti's "La Fille du Regiment", in which his signature aria called for him to hit nine high Cs (which he easily achieved), this saw Pavarotti's name (and the seventeen curtain calls he received) well and truly established. He was known for the rest of his life as the King of the High Cs. His voice was natural, exquisite, heartbreakingly beautiful, and he shared that wonderful gift with the entire world. Thank goodness this extraordinarily talented man didn't achieve his earlier dream of becoming a soccer player. You can only kick a ball so far. That voice was limitless.
