Adriano Celentano

Adriano Celentano (born January 6, 1938 in Milan ) is an Italian singer , composer , actor , music , film and television producer and television presenter . From the end of the 1950s, his successful acting and music career helped him gain great popularity in his home country. Songs like Azzurro (1968) were also internationally successful. Celentano is considered a particularly versatile entertainer, whose merit it is to have introduced American rock 'n' roll to Italy.

Career

Celentano with Gianni Morandi at the Sanremo Festival 2012

Celentano's parents are from the Foggia province in Apulia , but he was born and raised in Milan. The trained watchmaker made his public debut as a singer on May 18, 1957 with the group Rocky Boys with the song Ciao ti dirò . The first records then appeared on the Saar label. The first big success came in 1959 with the single Il tuo bacio è come un rock . The following year he appeared in Federico Fellini's La dolce vita . In 1961 he took part in the Sanremo Festival for the first time with 24,000 baci and then founded his own independent label, the Clan Celentano . Successful singles and other film appearances followed until he returned to Sanremo in 1966 with the autobiographical Il ragazzo della via Gluck . In 1967 he had another success with La coppia più bella del mondo (“The most beautiful couple in the world”), which he sang in a duet with his wife Claudia Mori (married in 1964). The song was written by Paolo Conte , who in 1968 was also responsible for the hit Azzurro , which is known far beyond Italy's borders .

Starting with the film Serafino, the Schürzenjäger (1968), Celentano intensified his work as an actor, with which he was able to build a successful parallel career. He often played slapstick-like characters, sometimes with political undertones. His greatest successes include the films Bluff with Anthony Quinn as well as The Tamed Shrew and Give the Monkey Sugar , both with his frequent film partner Ornella Muti . With the song Chi non lavora non fa l'amore , he appeared again in Sanremo in 1970 (together with Claudia Mori) and this time won. In 1971 he returned to the festival for the last time with Sotto le lenzuola . In 1974 he worked for the first time as director and leading actor in the film Yuppi Du , a combination that he took up again several times in later years. With the RAI show Fantastico 8 , Celentano began a career as a television presenter that was always controversial in 1987.

With the collaboration album Mina Celentano together with Mina , the singer returned to the top of the charts in 1998, a success that he was able to build on with the following albums, most recently in 2011 with Facciamo finta che sia vero . Celentano was able to maintain its popularity to this day with a number of other television appearances. His program RockPpolitik , for example, caused a sensation in which he accused the Italian government under Silvio Berlusconi of massively violating the freedom of the press .

With Claudia Mori, Celentano has two daughters, Rosita (* 1965) and Rosalinda (* 1968, actress) and a son, Giacomo (* 1966).

German voice actors

Celentano's films in German were mainly influenced by Schnodder German , which was mostly made under the direction of Rainer Brandt . Celentano was mostly dubbed by Thomas Danneberg , other speakers were Heiner Lauterbach , Michael Brennicke , Harald Juhnke , Klaus Kindler and a few more.
