Full Ophelie Winter Biography
Blue-eyed Ophelie Kleerekoper-Winter was born February 20, 1974, in Boulogne, France. Her father was a famous 70's Dutch pop singer, while her mother was a French fashion model (she's presently her agent). Born into a family of celebrities and talent (her older brother is a musician as well), Winter knew at a young age that she wanted to be famous.
Winter moved to the United States to be close to her father after her parents divorced when she was just 2 years old. She had a love for the American language as well as American men, as she had many boyfriends in the U.S. It was in the States that Winter studied dance, singing, music, and comedy. She left for Paris at the age of 17 where she lived with her mother and brother. She was discovered by a modeling agent while on Paris' Champs Elysees and after three years of modeling, she knew she wanted to be a singer and an actress.
She became famous after having worked on television for three years. She starred in three French films, including Hommes, Femmes, Mode D'Emploi (Men, Women: A User's Manual) in 1996; Bouge! (Move!) and Tout Doit Disparaitre (Everything Must Go) in 1997 (she sang in the latter); and most recently, Folle D'Elle (Crazy About Her) in 1999.
In addition to Winter's film roles, she has two albums to add to her repertoire; No Soucy!, which her brother collaborated on; and Privacy.
Said to be a perfectionist, Winter's passions include animals and playing the synthesizer. She owns a mare named Marzouck; a female dog by the name of Fanny; and four cats, named Scotty, Henry, Poly, and Goldy. She presently resides in Paris. In the rare spare time that she has, she enjoys skiing and going to her mother's country house and indulging in yoga every morning. |
