Biography

Adriano Celentano (born 6 January 1938) is an Italian musician, singer, composer, actor, and filmmaker. He is dubbed il Molleggiato (the springy one) because of his dancing.

Celentano's many albums frequently enjoyed both commercial and critical success. With 150 million records sold worldwide, he is one of the best-selling Italian musical artists. Often credited as the author of both the music and lyrics of his songs, according to his wife Claudia Mori, some were written in collaboration with others. Due to his prolific career, both in Italy and abroad, he is considered one of the pillars of Italian music. Celentano is recognized for being particularly perceptive of changes in the music business, and is credited for having introduced rock and roll to Italy. As an actor, Celentano has appeared in 39 films, mostly comedies.

Celentano was born in Milan at 14 Via Cristoforo Gluck, and this address later became the subject of the famous song "Il ragazzo della via Gluck" ("The boy from Gluck Street"). His parents were from Foggia in Apulia and had moved north for work. His career as a singer started in 1959. Before his debut as an artist he was working as a watchmaker.

Heavily influenced by Elvis Presley and the 1950s rock 'n' roll scene as well as by American actor Jerry Lewis, Celentano started playing in a rock and roll band with Giorgio Gaber and Enzo Jannacci. Along with Gaber and Jannacci, he was discovered by Jolly Records A&R Executive Ezio Leoni, who signed him to his first recording contract and co-authored with Celentano some of his greatest early hits, including "24.000 baci", "Il tuo bacio è come un rock", and "Si è spento il Sole". He first appeared on screen in Ragazzi del Juke-Box, a 1959 Italian musical film directed by Lucio Fulci with music by Ezio Leoni. In 1960, Federico Fellini cast him as a rock and roll singer in his film La Dolce Vita.

In 1962, Celentano founded the Italian record label Clan Celentano (which is still active) with many performers such as Don Backy, Ola & the Janglers, Ricky Gianco, Katty Line, Gino Santercole, Fred Bongusto and his wife Claudia Mori.

As a film director, Celentano frequently cast Ornella Muti, Eleonora Giorgi and his wife Claudia Mori. He and Mori have three children, Rosita, Giacomo and Rosalinda Celentano. Rosalinda is most notable to worldwide audiences for playing Satan in Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ. Celentano has also hosted several Italian television shows.

Celentano has retained his popularity in Italy for over 50 years, selling millions of records and appearing in numerous TV shows and movies. As part of his TV and movie work, he created a comic genre, with a characteristic walk and facial expressions. For the most part, his films were commercially successful; indeed, in the 1970s and part of the 1980s, his low-budget movies were top of Italian box office rankings. As an actor, critics point to Serafino (1968), directed by Pietro Germi, as his best performance. ...

Biography

Adriano Celentano, né le 6 janvier 1938 à Milan (Italie), est un auteur-compositeur-interprète, chanteur, acteur, réalisateur, scénariste et présentateur italien. En Italie, il est surnommé «Il Molleggiato» (l'homme monté sur ressorts) ou «L'Urlatore» (l'homme qui hurle). Artiste majeur de la chanson italienne, il a vendu plus de deux cents millions de disques dans le monde. Certains de ses succès ont été adaptés en France, notamment par Johnny Hallyday.

Né de parents originaires de Foggia dans les Pouilles, Adriano Celentano voit le jour à Milan, au numéro 14 de la mythique via Gluck, dont il a fait une chanson célèbre: Il ragazzo della via Gluck (reprise la même année 1966 par Françoise Hardy sous le titre La maison où j'ai grandi). Cette rue se trouve à proximité immédiate de la gare centrale de Milan qui, après la Seconde Guerre mondiale était une «zone», en pleine reconstruction.

La famille déménage à Via Correnti en 1951 dans le centre de Milan. Il entre en apprentissage après sa scolarité obligatoire et enchaîne plusieurs boulots dont celui d'horloger. Il est un des premiers à avoir saisi l'importance de la musique rock anglo-saxonne et à l'avoir adaptée en italien. Après un concert de Bill Haley, Adriano fonde en 1956 avec des amis le groupe des Rocks Boys. L'un d'entre eux, Antonio Ciacci, deviendra célèbre sous le nom de Little Tony. Adriano trouve son style en dansant de façon désarticulée sur la musique de son groupe et en imitant Jerry Lee Lewis.

Lors de l’unique festival du rock 'n' roll italien, le 18 mai 1957, il remporte le premier prix avec Ciao ti diro, mais le groupe se sépare peu après. Il rencontre Miki del Prete, qui vient aussi des Pouilles et qui deviendra son parolier. Ses premiers 45 tours, faits de reprises de rock américain, sortent en 1958 mais connaissent peu de succès. Adriano Celentano produit ses premières chansons en italien à partir de 1959.

En 1960 il apparait dans son propre rôle de chanteur de rock dans une scène de La dolce vita de Federico Fellini.

Au festival de San Remo de 1961, la chanson 24.000 baci interprétée par Adriano Celentano et Little Tony, termine deuxième.

Entre 1962 et 1968, il fonde le Clan Celentano, une société de production pour gérer la vente de ses disques (de l'ordre du million d'exemplaires à l'époque). En 1964, il rencontre celle qui deviendra sa femme, Claudia Mori, avec laquelle il aura trois enfants. Les succès sont nombreux (Ciao ragazzi, Pregherò, Tre passi avanti, Mondo in mi 7a) même si Celentano, réputé despotique, est soudain pris d'une révélation mystique et mettra bientôt fin au clan. Il Ragazzo della via Gluck ne marche pas à Sanremo en 1966, mais La Coppia più bella del mondo et Azzurro (de Paolo Conte) sont des succès. ...

È un cantautore, showman, attore, regista, sceneggiatore, compositore, montatore e autore televisivo italiano. È soprannominato il Molleggiato per via del suo peculiare modo di ballare. Molto spesso anche autore delle musiche e canzoni (a volte coautore di musica e testi, anche se, secondo la moglie Claudia Mori, spesso li lasciò firmare ad altri), grazie alla sua carriera e ai suoi successi, anche fuori dai confini italiani, è considerato uno dei pilastri della musica leggera italiana. Per tutta la sua carriera iniziata nel 1957 ha interpretato alcuni tra i brani italiani più noti come 24 mila baci, Azzurro, Prisencolinensinainciusol, Il ragazzo della via Gluck, con tematiche ambientaliste, fino al più recente L'emozione non ha voce; progetti più recenti come Io non so parlar d'amore, Esco di rado e parlo ancora meno e Mina Celentano, rientrano tra gli album più venduti della storia in Italia. Ha pubblicato oltre quaranta album discografici. Ha partecipato al Festival di Sanremo per cinque volte, vincendolo nel 1970 con Chi non lavora non fa l'amore, in coppia con la moglie Claudia Mori. Raggiunse il successo come cantante anche all'estero verso la fine degli anni settanta in Francia, Unione Sovietica, Germania, Stati Uniti, Cina, Sud America, Grecia e Austria. Oltre che come cantante, è stato attivo nel cinema come attore recitando in circa 40 film, e in televisione dove ha condotto numerosi spettacoli televisivi trasmessi dalla Rai come Fantastico, gli one man show Francamente me ne infischio (premiato con la Rosa d'argento a Montreux), 125 milioni di caz..te e Rockpolitik, spesso accompagnati da critiche e polemiche e coi quali ha ottenuto numerosi riconoscimenti internazionali, catalizzando su di essi un forte interesse da parte dei mass media italiani. Gli viene riconosciuto il merito di avere capito i cambiamenti nel mondo della musica e del costume introducendo in Italia, influenzato dalla rock and roll proveniente dagli Stati Uniti, un nuovo tipo di musica.

Cantante, actor y presentador de televisión italiano, nacido en Milán, verdadero precursor del rock and roll en su país. Imitador de Elvis Presley en sus inicios, comenzó a grabar a finales de los cincuenta aunque tuvo que esperar a que el nuevo género se difundiera en Europa para cosechar sus primeros éxitos. Sus actuaciones en directo se hicieron famosas, con un Adriano Celentano electrizante sobre el escenario, terminando en más de una ocasión convertidas en altercados de orden público, como ocurriera en su presentación, durante el Primer Festival de Rock And Roll, en el Palacio del Hielo de Milán. El espaldarazo definitivo lo obtuvo gracias a su participación en el Festival de San Remo de 1960, con la canción 24 Mila Baci que, aunque no ganó la edición del certamen, se convirtió en seguida en himno generacional de la juventud italiana. Dada la escasez de rockers europeos, su prestigio se extendió fácilmente por el resto de países del continente y sus singles alcanzaron durante los sesenta un importantes volúmenes de ventas. Cuando los gustos de la gente empezaron a cambiar, Adriano Celentano se refugió en el cine, protagonizando un buen número de comedias italianas o como presentador de importantes espacios de la RAI. Fundó su propio sello discográfico, Clan, en el que graba sus propias producciones o facilita el camino a artistas noveles.
