Few months after singing "New York NY", Nina Hagen came back in the sunday show "CHAMPIONS" for another crazy performance with "ZARAH" (from the album "Angstlos"). After the song, she joined the French rugby team for an interview. But the TV host and his guests didn't speak a good english. Fortunately, Nina Hagen has a strong sense of humor.

Born in East Germany, Nina Hagen had gained a reputation as a flamboyant rock singer by the time she emigrated to the West in 1976, where she formed a band, signed to CBS Germany, and released the debut album "Nina Hagen Band" in 1978. It was followed in 1980 by "Unbehagen" (and the hit single "African Reggae"). Hagen's first U.S. release, Nina Hagen Band EP (1980), was a four-song EP consisting of songs drawn from her two German releases. She moved to New York and made her first English-language LP, "Nunsexmonkrock", in 1982. That and its follow-up, the Giorgio Moroder-produced "Fearless" (1983), charted briefly, and "New York NY" was a Top Ten dance club hit. But Hagen left CBS after "In Ekstasy" (1985) and her triumph at Rock In Rio festival. In 1988, she celebrated her marriage with the EP "Punk Wedding", and in 1989 she returned to the German market with "Nina Hagen".
Despite less success in the 90s, she continues to record ("Street", "Revolution Ballroom", "Freud euch/Bee Happy", "Om Namah Shivay") and give concerts, mainly in Europe. After her album "Return Of The Mother" in 2000, Nina Hagen released two albums of jazz covers. Converted to Protestantism in 2009, she returned in force to Germany with "Personal Jesus". Eleven years after "Volksbeat", a new album is announced on December 9, 2022: "Unity". Eccentric singer with a voice covering 5 octaves, Nina Hagen has approached many musical styles: punk, rock, new wave, rap, dance, reggae, classical, jazz, blues, etc.
