Amanda Lear

Profile:Born on 11 November 1946 in Hong Kong to a French-English father and an Asian-Russian mother.
She was raised in south of France and moved to Paris to make a career in painting.
She became a top model and one of Salvador Dali's muses. She posed as the "lady with the panther" on the famous cover of Roxy Music's "For Your Pleasure" album of 1973. Then David Bowie fell in love with her and she began her career as a disco singer. To create more hype about her they invented the story that she is a transexual.
Since the early '80s she has presented TV broadcast in Italy, France and Germany.

Dexshu-run, Sep 12, 2005

I fell in love with Amanda Lear nearly a year ago upon hearing the Laurent Wolf Mix of I Just Wanna Dance Again. I bought her first 7 albums on CD as well as the French Edition of her Greatest Hits, Follow Me.

I must say, her voice has a hypnotic-like effect on me. The instrumentals are well done and back-up singers Claudia Schwarz and Renate Mauer do well with travelling with Amanda throughout each and every production.

Amanda is also a talented lyricist and co-writes everything she records. A true talent.

I was thrilled when Amanda remixed and re-recorded her old songs. Even though I prefer the originals, the new versions shine just as good.

Amandas last album Heart did suprisingly well in Europe. Amanda has released 2 CD singles a while back called "Paris By Night" and "Copacabana". Look out for them.

She is also not a man, nor was she one ever. Those were lies, she, David Bowie and Salvador Dali created to give herself more publicity. It worked!
