Amanda Lear, a renowned model, singer, and artist, reflects on her extraordinary life, filled with chance encounters and unexpected successes. From modeling for fashion giants like Yves Saint Laurent and Karl Lagerfeld to dating David Bowie and a Rolling Stone, Lear's journey has been a tapestry woven by serendipity. She shares her philosophy of embracing the unknown and her unwavering curiosity about what lies ahead.
Amanda Lear modeled for Yves Saint Laurent, Karl Lagerfeld, and Paco Rabanne; dated David Bowie and a Rolling Stone; and forged a successful music career of her own—but she never planned any of it. “I think my whole destiny was probably written somewhere in the stars. I never tried anything. I never went to school to learn acting. Everything happened by chance.
Lear hobnobbed with Harrison and John Lennon at the 1968 opening party for Apple Tailoring, the band’s London boutique.“Nowadays, most model girls dream of going out with a football player. But in my day, as soon as the boy had long hair and was holding a guitar, we were in love with him,” says Lear. She was linked for a while to Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones and was close friends with Pattie Boyd, the model who married George Harrison from the Beatles.
