Suzy Solidor (18 December 1900 – 30 March 1983) was a French singer and actress, appearing in films such as ''La Garçonne''. Suzy Solidor was born in 1900 in the Pie district of Saint-Servan-sur-Mer in Brittany, France, under the name of Suzanne Louise Marie Marion. She was the daughter of Louise Marie Adeline Marion, a 28-year-old single mother. In 1907 she became Suzy Rocher when her mother married Eugène Prudent Rocher. She later changed her name to Suzy Solidor when she moved to Paris in the late 1920s, taking the name from a district of Saint-Servan in which she had lived. Early in 1930 she became a popular singer and opened a chic nightclub called La Vie Parisienne. She was openly lesbian. One of the singer’s most famous publicity stunts was to become known as the “most painted woman in the world”. She posed for some of the most celebrated artists of the day including Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque, Raoul Dufy, Tamara de Lempicka, Marie Laurencin, Francis Picabia and Kees van Dongen. Her stipulation for sitting was that she would be given the paintings to hang in her club and by this time she had accumulated thirty-three portraits of herself. La Vie Parisienne became one of the trendiest night spots in Paris. Solidor’s most famous portrait was done by Tamara de Lempicka. Solidor met Tamara de Lempicka sometime in the early 1930s and Suzy asked the artist to paint her. Tamara agreed, but only if she could paint Solidor in the nude. Solidor agreed and the painting was finished in 1933. During the occupation her nightclub was popular with German officers; in 1941 she recorded a version of the song "Lili Marleen" with French words by Henri Lemarchand.〔Pathé: (Discography )〕 After the war she was convicted by the Épuration légale as a collaborator. She died on 30 March 1983 in Cagnes-sur-Mer and is buried in the town. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Suzy Solidor」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
