Nina Hagen is celebrating her 70th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, she is one of the most acclaimed singers of her generation.
Popular singer Nina Hagen (New York/N.Y., African Reggae, Du hast den Farbfilm vergessen, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 70th birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.
Hagen, a cultural icon
Born Catharina Hagen in Berlin on March 11, 1955, her career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in German history. Hagen's not just a great singer, she's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business woman. At this point in her career, there seems to be little Nina hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Nina Hagen as she promises more to come. After all, she's only 70.
Happy Birthday, Nina, you're the best!
