Patricia Kaas managed to get an army of fans all over the world in a short time. One of the reasons for the success is a well-chosen touring strategy. Tours across countries and continents became the formula for Patricia's victory. A particularly warm attitude towards the French singer has always been experienced in Russia.
From the biography of Patricia Kaas
The future famous singer was born on December 5, 1966 in the city of Forbach (France). Her father was a miner, her mother ran a household. The family had seven children, among whom Patricia was the last child. A large family lived near the border with Germany. Before school, children communicated in German: this was not unusual for those places.
From a young age, Patricia loved to sing and listen to music. She really liked the songs performed by Mireille Mathieu and Dalida. She tried to perform the hits of Liza Minnelli. From the age of nine, the girl had already performed at festivals and dance floors, and four years later she was signed by a cabaret club in Saarbrücken. Patricia's childhood ended early. Already at the age of 16, she works in a modeling agency and provides for her family.
The creative path of Patricia Kaas
Patricia managed to reach the peaks of the musical Olympus by the age of 19. Architect Bernard Schwartz liked the girl's performance at the club. He invited Kaas to the French capital and introduced her to the lyricist François Bernheim. Gerard Depardieu himself took patronage over the young performer.
The first Bernheim composition performed by Patricia was not successful. The hit was the song Mademoiselle chante le blues, which was released at the end of 1987 and took a place in the second ten of the hit rating. An album was later released under the same name, which took the second line in the rating. Three million such discs have been sold around the world. The success coincided with family problems: Patricia's mother fell ill. In 1989, the mother passed away.
A year later, the singer went on a long tour in different countries. She performs in prestigious halls, she is offered cooperation with a recording studio. Videos are being shot for Patricia's songs. The incendiary composition Mon mec a moi quickly conquers the audience.
Patricia's tours span country after country. The fame of the French singer is growing, although there have been short-term failures in the release of the discs.
In 2001, Patricia Kaas starred in the film And Now, Ladies and Gentlemen. Since 2005, Patricia has toured a lot in Russia and even sang a duet with the group "Uma Thurman". The song "You Can't Call" was remembered and loved by the Russian-speaking audience.
Personal life of Patricia Kaas
Kaas has released a book of memoirs, where she shares the details of her life with fans.
The personal life of the French singer was not at all the way she dreamed in her youth. Even in her youth, she learned that she would never be able to have children. This was a blow to Kaas.
Patricia had many novels, but none of them ended in marriage. It was rumored that she had a relationship with Alain Delon himself, but the singer rejects this version and claims that the actor has always been her only friend.
Kaas lives in the capital of France, occupying cozy apartments, which she designed herself.
