Herbert Grönemeyer, 64 years old

One of the best-selling German albums is Mensch, behind which Grönemeyer is the creative mind. The singer and actor can still shine with more records – according to statements, everything he touches becomes a success. As a young man he studied music and law, which is an unusual combination. Accordingly, one often finds indications of a militant sense of justice in his music, despite the fact that he broke off his studies. Grönemeyer wants children to come to power and is known to be from the city of Bochum. He had his greatest acting success with the film Das Boot. He processed his great grief for his wife, who died a few years ago, in an album.
