Биография

Mariangela (born Mariangela Argentino, Piacenza, December 4, 1984) is an Italian pop singer. Committed to breaking into show business from an early age (she first appeared on TV when she was four), Mariangela formed a rock band while in high school, then in 2001 recorded a few dance singles under the name Sweet Mary, and eventually became a background singer for the popular TV game shows Sarabanda and Furore. She also participated in various talent and reality shows for young performers, including the San Remo Youth Academy in 2002 and Reality Show Superstar Tour in 2004. Starting in 2005 she began to release singles under her own name, and two of these, "M'ama o M'amerà" and "Odiami Senza Rancore," become huge hits thanks to repeated TV exposure on the show Striscia la Notizia. In 2007 she performed at the San Remo Festival to promote the release of her debut album, ...Preparati a Volare. The record went gold in four months in Italy. ~ Mariano Prunes, Rovi
