Mareva Galanter
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mareva Galanter (born February 4, 1979 in Papeete, Tahiti, French Polynesia) is a French actress and former beauty queen who has competed at Miss Universe.
Galanter won the 1998 "Miss World of Islands" and then the 1998 "Miss Tahiti" beauty contest that allowed her to compete for the Miss France 1999 crown, which she won. Galanter later represented France at the Miss Universe 1999 pageant held in Trinidad and Tobago in May 1999.
Ms. Galanter expanded her work into music and singing, releasing Ukuyeye, under Warner Music, in 2006. Stylisticly the music pays homage to a genre known as "L'epoque des YéYés" popularized by French pop musicians of the early 1960s such as Johnny Halliday and France Gall. Other elements of the music, namely the techno dance beats are purely modern.
She has released videos for seven of her songs. The videos, like the music, feature strong elements of 1960s fashion with modern twists. Many of the videos mimic the style of the Scopitone video jukeboxes from that era.
Mareva is 5-10 ( 1 m 78 ).
