Vicky Leandros, 71 years old

Vicky was born in Greece and owes her entry into her career as a singer to her father Leo Leandros. He recorded many of his songs in Greek as well as in German. She herself followed in his footsteps as a daughter in the industry after training in singing, guitar and ballet. To this day she is still active and successful as a singer in both countries. After her first success in Germany in the mid-1960s, she later performed for Luxembourg in the Eurovision Song Contest. Her vocally strong song “Theo, wir fahr’n nach Lodz” was her greatest success in Germany. Not only in Germany, but also internationally, the versatile artist has been regarded as the most successful female artist since the charts existed.
