Manuela â born Doris Inge Wegener on August 18, 1943, in Berlin, Germany â was a schlager singer and actress. Her first job was as a factory work who would moonlight as a singer, performing in a variety of bands in Berlin. Discovered in 1962 while performing in one of those clubs, she was rushed into the studio and released her first single, âHula-Seranadeâ, that same year. In 1963, she released four singles â including her German-language hit cover version of âBlame It on the Bossa Novaâ - and her debut album, Manuela! She also starred in Im singenden RöÃl am Königssee, her first film, in 1963. Manuela traveled to Hollywood, California to study the English language and studied with actress Kim Novak. She released dozens of singles throughout the 1960s and 1970s including the hits "Schwimmen lernt man in See" (1964), "Schneeman" (1964), âKüsse untern Regenbogen" (1965), "Monsieur Dupont" (1967), "Wenn es Nacht wird in Harlem" (1967), and many others.
