Lorielle London
Lorielle London (born 24 December 1983 in Birkenfeld, West Germany) is a German transgender entertainer and television personality.
London was born in 1983 in Birkenfeld to a German fashion seamstress and an American soldier and grew up in nearby Baumholder.
From childhood until her television debut, she worked exclusively in various performing and visual artistic professions. London was discovered in a children's art school by an art professor and began to study painting at the university of Idar-Oberstein at the age of 12. In the following years, her works were displayed in various exhibitions for sale. Her mother acted as her agent.
London discovered her love for singing in an American gospel choir. As a solo performer, she made several appearances at festivals, giving concerts, and was hired as lead vocalist for various bands.
In addition, she devoted herself to a form of acrobatics called 'contortion', which she trained and performed for 17 years. At that time, she was one of the very few professional male contortionists in Germany.
Due to a drastic voice change during puberty, she gave up her singing ambitions and decided to follow in her mother's footsteps to study fashion design.
Lorielle London entered as a contestant for the second season of Deutschland sucht den Superstar (part of the Idol franchise) in 2003. After not advancing in the first season, she applied the following season with the song "I Just Called to Say I Love You" by Stevie Wonder and eventually finished in tenth place out of 40,000 applicants. Although her singing talent was prominent, she attracted attention with her androgynous appearance and gestures that were often discussed and ridiculed in satirical programs. London says that she had to learn how to accept this new image very quickly that was contrary to her previous life as an artist.
After leaving Deutschland sucht den Superstar, the interest in London as an entertainer remained. She appeared in different series, shows and numerous celebrity and lifestyle-news broadcasts. In 2004, London, among others, entered the reality TV show Die Alm ("The Farm"). Die Alm, which, after initial airing received low ratings, increased its viewership dramatically once London was hired.[citation needed] The television network ProSieben then decided to extend the series by an extra week and London remained until the final. Following the program, she regularly appeared on various tabloid shows on Sat.1, such as Das Sat.1 Frühstücksfernsehen ("Sat.1 Breakfast Show"). She made her acting debut in 2006, in a comedy remake of Little Red Riding Hood. The film was released under the title Die ProSieben Märchenstunde: Rotkäpchen – Wege zum Glück.
