Amanda Lear is a French singer, songwriter, former model, television presenter and painter who rose to prominence in the 1970s as a disco/Italo-disco artist and was famously associated with Salvador DalÍ.

She was closely associated with Salvador DalÍ and became a prominent disco-era performer in the late 1970s; her birth year and early life have been subject to public dispute.

Two DeBaser reviews by the same author (Armand) discuss Amanda Lear's work through an ironic, provocative lens. Themes include androgyny, her role as Salvador Dalí's muse, and the influence of Italian disco. The reviews rate albums moderately and mix admiration with polemic cultural commentary.
