Patricia Kaas - French Chic!

Patricia Kaas grew up in a large family, where she was the youngest sister. Patricia's mother was German, and her father was a German-Norwegian with French citizenship. Kaas started singing from an early age. At thirteen, thanks to her brother Egon, Patricia signed her first contract with the Rumpelkammer club. The first producer of Patricia Kaas was the architect Bernard Schwots, who led her to her first successes.

French actor Gerard Depardieu noticed the singer at the club, she was then nineteen years old. On the recommendation of the songwriter François Bernheim, Depardieu undertakes to sponsor the young singer. Through this collaboration, Kaas began her acting career.

The singer's discography begins with the famous hit "Mademoiselle Sings the Blues", which was released in 1987. In 1988, in January, the first album of Patricia Kaas was released, and took second place in the charts in France. This album will go platinum in three months.

Perhaps the most memorable moment in the singer's biography was her first world tour in 1990, which lasted sixteen months. In the same year, Kaas recorded a new album, "Picture of Life", which became as successful as the first.

Patricia Kaas is a French jazz and pop singer with an inimitable, mesmerizingly deep voice, who has released several gold and platinum albums during her career, and a favorite of the Russian public.

This petite, graceful woman literally blew up auditoriums around the world with her romantic, sensual compositions, and films with her participation won prizes at the Cannes Film Festival more than once. Patricia Kaas has long been the face of L Etoile, one of the largest cosmetic chains in Russia. Mademoiselle Kaas's impeccable taste is admired not only by fashion designers and critics, but also by ordinary people.

Childhood and adolescence of the singer

Patricia Kaas, whose biography is full of various events, was born on December 5, 1966 in a French family with German roots in a town called Forbach. The family lived quite poorly, because Patricia was the seventh child, and the earnings of her father, a miner, were scanty.

The singer's mother was a very talented woman. Noticing her daughter's craving for singing, from early childhood she began to encourage her daughter to study music. The children in the family treated Patricia with respect, because from the age of five she participated in song contests and local fashion shows.

Since birth, Patricia Kaas dreamed of a stage, but her singing career at first did not work out: the producers did not need a second Mireille Mathieu. When the girl was nine, she was noticed by an agent of the group "Black Flowers" and signed a long-term contract with the young talent. Patricia toured half the country, her fees became the main source of income for the family. Four years later, the singer signs a contract with the cabaret club "Rumpelkammer", which will become her next step towards world success.

In an interview with a famous French journalist, the singer said: “My childhood ended early for me. All I could think about when I was young was how to make money. Although this is not bad at all, because I knew what hard work is, and this is what prevented me from breaking down, giving up or leaving the chosen path. "

The most difficult year for the singer came when she was invited to work in a modeling agency. As Patricia Kaas recalls, in her youth she always wanted to sleep, and also to eat, because the shows on fashion catwalks exhausted her to the point of complete loss of strength.

The beginning of a singing career

Patricia Kaas had to combine performances in a cabaret with the work of a model, but her dreams of becoming a professional singer did not leave her. When she turned nineteen, she accidentally met a very famous architect - Bernard Schwartz, who became for her not just a friend, but a "bridge" to the French stage.

Having moved to Paris at the invitation of Schwartz, the singer meets Bernheim, a famous songwriter who has written more than one hit. A sexy, with a slight hoarse voice enchants and inspires the poet, their collaboration begins.

The first single with which Patricia makes her debut on French radio - "Jealous", does not bring her success. Perhaps the reason for this was the singer's young age and lack of proper experience, and perhaps the lyrics were too corny. Upon returning home, Patricia experienced not the best moments in her life, but her depression did not last long - the singer decided to make another attempt and a few months later returned to Paris.

1986 was a significant year for her: she meets Didier Barbelivien, who will write for her the famous "Mademoiselle chante le blues". Exactly one year later, the clip will hit all TV channels and will firmly establish itself on the leading places in the world song charts.

1988 was a triumphant year for the singer: she releases her first album, which will bring her real success and will first go gold and then platinum in several European countries. According to information posted on Wikipedia, the circulation was over three million, and the revenues exceeded even the wildest dreams of the young singer.

However, all this did not please Patricia at all, since her beloved mother fell seriously ill, and a year later, despite all the efforts of the doctors, she died. A new stage in the singer's career begins: in order to escape from the worries associated with the death of her mother, she works hard and in just two years achieves stunning success:

• After lengthy negotiations, she concludes a lucrative contract with CBS Records, which paves the way for her not only to the European, but also to the American musical Olympus.
• Receives the prestigious World Music Awards for his first composition.
• He travels around thirteen countries on a world tour, including Japan, the USSR, and European countries.
• Receives Bronze for Best Debutante at a prestigious American ceremony.

Further career

Patricia always felt that she did not want to limit herself only to singing, because her artistic nature demanded more. A lucky chance was not long in coming: the famous director Claude Lelouch invites her to star in the film "Now, Ladies and Gentlemen."

The role brought Kaas success and even more love from her fans, and the triumphant procession along the red carpet, accompanied by the director, added juicy rumors about her romance with men. Fans were waiting for the next films with the participation of the singer to be released, but Patricia, after breaking up with Claude, decided not to act anymore.

Then the singer releases another album called "Kabaret", which will bring her not only success, but also worldwide recognition. Kaas again decides to go on tour, during the tour she visits Russia and performs at a concert in the Kremlin. Mademoiselle performs several romances in a heartfelt and sensual way, the audience gives a standing ovation, calling her several times to the stage. From that moment, according to the singer, her love for the Russian public and Russian culture begins.

Kaas does not give up trying to break into the English-speaking market, so her most mysterious album, Black Coffee, appears. It is known for certain that the singer worked on it, but the album never officially appeared on sale. The singer still refuses to comment on why the recording studio did not release this work in circulation. This was followed by six more albums by Kaas, which were a huge success with the public.

Personal life

As Patricia Kaas herself says, her personal life was not at all the way she would like. The example of her parents became an ideal for her, because they lived together for many years and never quarreled, trying to give all the best to their children. Even in her youth, after an illness, the singer learned from doctors that she would not be able to have children. Patricia has said more than once that this is a real slap in the face from fate, which she simply cannot bear.

In the program “Alone with everyone,” she said that she could become a mother to adopted children, but she could not decide on this because of her extreme employment. In many ways, this circumstance complicated her relationship with men, especially when they realized that Kaas was a strong personality. Among Patricia's men there were many famous and talented people - for example, producer Cyril Priyer, who supported her in the most difficult moments of her life.

Many journalists talk about Patricia's romance with the famous film actor Alain Delon, but how many years they met is still unknown. The star denies this fact, claiming that only friendly feelings united her with Delon, despite romantic dates and luxurious bouquets of red roses.

The relationship of the famous Frenchwoman with the Belgian composer Philippe Bergman ended in a big scandal, and their separation was accompanied by litigation. Kaas was shocked by the property claims of her former friend, because they were not even officially married.

Then there was a passionate and frantic romance with the famous chef Yannick Alleno, which also ended in a breakdown. The singer frankly admits that she has no luck with men, so she prefers to focus on work. Patricia looks great in her fifty years, she actively tours, starred in commercials, writes songs and her own autobiography. Author: Natalia Ivanova

She has no musical education, she did not attend eminent conservatories and did not take lessons from recognized music teachers. But this did not stop her from making a brilliant career. Patricia Kaas, amazing and mysterious at the same time, delights with the power of her voice. Husky notes, like the echo of the inimitable Edith Piaf, with whom Kaas is always compared, made her recognizable and famous. And you even surprise: where from such a fragile, short woman, such a strong and colorful voice? Talent, natural data that drive millions of fans crazy.

A short biography of Patricia Kaas and many interesting facts about the singer read on our page.

short biography

The small town of Forbach is located in northeastern France. The path to Paris is long - 340 km, but Germany is just a stone's throw away. On the other side of the border lies the land of the Saar. It was here, at the junction of the two countries, that the future parents of Patricia Kaas met. Josef, a French citizen of German descent, and Irmgard, a German woman, met their eyes at one of the festivities and fell in love. Well, the result of their ardent passion was seven children, five boys and two girls. Patricia was born the very last on December 5, 1966.

While her father worked at the mine, and my mother was engaged in the household, the little girl grew up and learned the world around. Angular, somewhat like a boy in her behavior, Patricia began to discover music for herself. Hearing her daughter's singing, Irmgard was very happy - at least someone from a poor family would be able to free herself from the bonds of poverty. Therefore, she began in every possible way to encourage independent music lessons and without hesitation enrolled her daughter in the "Citywide competition of young talents." Such events were rare for Forback. Missing such a chance is an unforgivable mistake.

Constant rehearsals ended with the appearance of a 10-year-old lady on stage. Even then, she was able to excite the audience by wearing men's pants and a cap instead of the expected dress with ruffles. But the most interesting thing started later. A strong, hoarse and emotional voice sang in German and delighted everyone in the audience. This was her first victory.

Her vocal abilities were noticed and began to be invited to various events. The ambitious Patricia could not fail to take advantage of this offer. And she began to sing. At festivities, cabarets and even beer festivals. I even had to quit school, with the permission of my mother, of course.

Constant performances have left their mark. At the age of 13, her voice conquered a German blues group. Without a shadow of hesitation, the producer of the group offered to conclude a contract and sing a series of concerts to the gifted person in the Rum River club in the capital of the Saara. The city of Saarbrücken was not distinguished by luxury and wealth. Despite this, the young singer was very pleased with the new round in her work.

One evening Bernard Schwartz dropped into the Rum River. The forced stop in this world-forgotten city did not inspire the French producer for long gatherings. But Patricia's performance changed everything. On stage, she sang a song by Liza Minnelli and ... received an invitation to conquer Paris. So, the 19-year-old aspiring singer left her native place and began to be inspired by the romance of the Parisian streets.

The first single "Jealous" did not bring the expected success and splash of fame. Bernard constantly compared her with Edith Piaf and Marlene Dietrich, prophesying the popularity of the young lady. But such comparisons only made Patricia angry and forced to work with even greater dedication to prove that she was different. And she did it. The single "Mademoiselle Sings the Blues" opened France to a new talent - Patricia Kaas, and the album of the same name reached platinum status in three months. It is a pity that my mother, Irmgard, did not live up to this moment and could not share the success of her daughter.

The public's universal love for growth is like a snowball. Patricia enjoyed her fame and aspired to new horizons. At the age of 21, Olympia, the main concert hall in Paris, also submitted to her. The audience accompanied her with stormy applause and threw hundreds of bouquets at her feet. This is the moment she lived for.

A little later, Pat terminated the contract with Bernard Schwartz, acquired luxury housing in an elite area of ​​Paris and changed her appearance. Now a daring, sexy and temperamental woman appeared on the stage. Her new look, combined with her characteristic voice, made hearts beat faster and forget about everything in the world.

Patricia became the darling of France. At the end of 1990, she was chosen as the "Voice of the Year" and dedicated a whole program on one of the channels. She was a dizzying success and relied on endless tours that were popular. In 2009, Patricia represented France at the Eurovision Song Contest in Moscow. Her composition "Et s`il fallait le faire" during the voting scored 107 points and took 8th place. It was a success for France.

Platinum discs, a victory in the nominations "Best Female Artist of the Year", high album sales - this is the result of endless dedication to the music world. Patricia lived with songs and the powerful energy of her fans. Career overshadowed everything, even a loved one and the desire to start a family. Belgian composer Philippe Bergman, with whom she spent unforgettable years, could not completely melt the heart of this outwardly cold and unapproachable woman. He wanted children, she could not even imagine a break in creativity. Loneliness once again covered her ...

Patricia continues to sing, create new compositions and tour. And let the spark of loneliness still be visible in her eyes. Perhaps this makes her exactly that Patricia Kaas, who is listened to and admired.

Uncertainty ... always accompanies her. Either too thin, now too full - various doubts about herself and her beauty are constantly hovering in her head. And this is said by a woman whose appearance is admired by those around her! But Kaas has learned to deal with her own negativity and accept herself.

Career ... always comes first and always comes first. This is her life. Despite critical acclaim and love from fans, she doesn't think she's doing something supernatural.
