Name: Cecilie (aka Cecilie_denmark)
Location: Europe, Denmark
Bio: I am married and have 4 kids – 18, 15, 10 and 8yrs old. Maybe not your typical Matt Giraud fangirl, but then again that is the beauty about Matt – you don’t have to be a specific age to appreciate his amazing talent, his passion, wonderful personality and undeniable charm and good looks.
I went to grad school at Copenhagen Business School and hold a diploma in Organization and Management. I work full-time as a senior e-learning consultant with implementing e-learning at the University of Copenhagen. I enjoy horseback-riding on a weekly basis and run every other day. I am a part of the twitter group ”Going The Distance for Matt Giraud” our goal is to run till Matt gets signed – but most likely all of us will continue afterwards since his record-deal can’t be many miles away!
On becoming a Matt Giraud fan: I so vividly remember the first time I noticed Matt Giraud on American Idol. He was auditioning and had the sweetest most likable, innocent aura about him. I liked him instantly and when he started to sing I was definitely paying attention. During Hollywood week I was head over heels so to speak – so you can say that he had me at “hello”.
On #SignMattGiraud: I know that Matt Giraud will get signed. I just know. Not only because he has an amazing talent, mad piano-skills and a voice to die for; but because I truly believe, that the world needs Matt and his music. I had the honor and immense pleasure of going to the AI concert in Grand Rapids, MI. I got to talk to Matt, to witness the way he is around his fans and to see him perform and – just saying – the label that signs him will strike gold! I choose to believe that the only reason that Matt is not signed yet is that he is waiting for that right deal that permits him total musical freedom.
I can’t wait for the day that Matt releases his first album and first single! Can’t wait for Matt on the radio, can’t wait for Matt at the VMA’s, can’t wait for more Matt.
Spread the word #SignMattGiraud!

Cecile,
Thank you for writing this! I couldn’t agree or relate to you more! I am also married with 2 kids, and have fallen completely for Matt and his music! So happy to know that I am not alone. Once he is signed we can share what we know with the rest of the world!
This is so sweet Cecilie! Thanks for posting.
Matt has some of the sweetest, and most devoted fans and I hope that he sees this support : ) I also agree that Matt Giraud should have been signed yesterday, but I have no doubt that it will happen soon. With his dedication, passion, skill, charisma, and charm record labels will be eating out of the palm of his hands.
Cecilie, I’m 52 with a 20 year old daughter. I liked Matt from the start too. Your right, he is so sweet. All women, no matter what age can appreciate a good man. Not to mention one who sings soulful and sexy and can play the piano as good as Billy Joel or Elton John. I will forever be a fan.
Loved you story, Cecilie. I too remember the moment I became a fan for life. When Matt sang Georgia in Hollywood week I knew that I needed to hear that voice for the rest of my life. I KNOW that Matt will be successful and his fans dreams will come true!
Cecilie thanks for your story! I too am such a huge Matt fan. I am married with 3 children also. I am so glad that I was there with you sharing in Matt’s Grand Rapids Moment! Can’t wait for his album and to hear him on the radio!
Cecilie, you are awesome and glad you are a fan of Matt. Also, glad that I got the chance to meet you in GR! Keep up the Matt love.
Whose next? People gotta be fighting over the next Fan Friday!!
Aw, yay, Cecilie! SO sweet. :]
Cecilie,
I loved your story! It’s been nice having someone my age, w/ children and married to talk to about Matt. Same here, Matt had me at Georgia!
I’m so glad you got to meet him in GR and had extra time w/ him and even got to meet his dad. How awesome! You deserved that for coming all the way from Denmark just to see Matt in concert.
Thank you,Cecilie,for your story!It´s lovely.
Thanks so much for your personal story CEcilie!
I am so happy for you that you got to meet Matt and watch him perform live. You are great fan!
I do believe too Matt will get signed soon.
Good things come to those who wait. I guess we just have to keep being patient, but it will happen. Talent like his can’t just fade away.
He’s destined for stardom!
