Amanda Lear Parents: Meet Andre Tapp

Amanda Lear is the daughter of Andrew Tapp. There isn’t any information about her mother on the internet. Lear allegedly grew up in the South of France and Switzerland, or between London and Paris, or in Nice.

She learned English, German, Spanish and Italian in her teens, and would use multilingualism in her professional life. The academic George Claude Guilbert claims, “Linguists observe that she has a French accent when she speaks(and sings) in English.

Lear has also developed a successful career in painting, which she has long described as her biggest passion, and regularly exhibited her works in galleries across Europe and beyond since the early 1980s. She has also written several autobiographies, including My Life with Dali.

In the late 2000s, Lear reinvented herself as a theatrical actress, performing in long-running stage plays in France. To date, she allegedly has sold over 27 million records worldwide. Lear is also a widely recognised gay icon.
