Ute Lemper (narozena 4. července 1963 německém Münsteru) je německá zpěvačka a herečka.
Životopis[editovat | editovat zdroj]
Ute Lemper se narodila v Münsteru. V 16 letech se přidala k punkové kapele Panama Drive Band. Později absolvovala Taneční akademii v Kolíně nad Rýnem a divadelní školu Max Reinhardt Seminary ve Vídni.
Her diverse credits include musicals, jako například její průlomová role v původním Vídeňském obsazení muzikálu Cats, titulní role v Peter Pan, a recreation of the Marlene Dietrich-created Lola in The Blue Angel, the original European Sally Bowles in a Paris production of Cabaret, and the original London revival Velma Kelly in Chicago. She also dubbed the voice of Ariel in Disney's The Little Mermaid for German audiences.
Lemper, named Billboard's Crossover Artist of the Year for 1993/1994, is a prolific recording artist, appearing on numerous cast recordings and compilation concerts, including Roger Waters' The Wall concert in 1990. As a solo artist, her extensive discography includes ubiquitously well-reviewed interpretations of Kurt Weill's compositions from the late 1980s, in addition to German cabaret songs, which were very political songs sung in underground locations in 1930s Berlin and elsewhere. She recorded Illusions in 1992, devoted to the songs of Marlene Dietrich and Édith Piaf. She has numerous pop albums, variously in English, French, and German, and 2000s lauded modern Punishing Kiss. Punishing Kiss featured songs written especially for her by the likes of Scott Walker, Nick Cave, Tom Waits, Elvis Costello, Philip Glass, and Neil Hannon, the latter of whom performed with her on two of the disc's tracks. Lemper is known for wild interpretations on discs like the Sondheim tribute City of Strangers, containing a particularly mannered version of the Elaine Stritch-popularized song The Ladies Who Lunch. In 1998, a Lemper compilation, All That Jazz: The Best of Ute Lemper, was released. In 2003 and 2006 Lemper's songwriting talents were shown on her discs from those years as she moved from being an interpretive singer to a singer/songwriter.
A painter in the neoclassical style, Lemper's paintings have been showcased in numerous galleries.
She starred as Marie-Antoinette for L'Autrichienne (1989, directed by Pierre Granier-Deferre), and subsequently appeared in films such as Prorva, Bogus, Jean Galmot, aventurier, Prospero's Books, Appetite and Prêt-à-Porter (in the latter appearing in a well-publicised nude scene filmed while she was pregnant, and she received National Board of Review for Ensemble Cast award). She has contributed to the soundtracks of numerous films, including The Voyager, Kissing Jessica Stein and Appetite.
Lemper je matkou tří dětí, bydlí v Upper West Side v New York City. Vystupuje na celém světě, v poslední době také ve válkou poničením Středním Východě. Napsala také knihu a několik novinových článků.
