"99 Luftballons" was Nena's only U.S. hit.
Nena has four children and co-founded a school in Hamburg that is based on the Sudbury model -- which doesn't grade students or arbitrarily separate them by age.

Dragon, that's the first thing I thought, too! Her armpits scarred me back in the '80s. LOL. But the mini-bio is bugging me now: What's so arbitrary about separating kids by age?

With a few tweaks, I think she might be pretty hot, especially for a 48-yr-old broad. Plus, I like hairy armpits. I usually kick 'em out of bed when they reach 19 - I've used and degraded them sufficiently enough by then.

how does she look totally fine? i mean shes not ugly of course but come on, for other stars you guys are way too critical and sexist, but for someone not so famous you're kind. what is it with people? i should start a research and find out. because its weird and i hate it.

Her big days are also in germany over. Her last album in 2007 flopped. The last No.1-Single was in 2005. New big german-languaged popstars in germany are Herbert Grönemeyer, Rosenstolz, Tokio Hotel and Rappers like Bushido and Sido. But the most favorite stars in germany are international: Amy Whinehouse, Britney Spears, Madonna, Polarkreis 18 (german band, but english lyrics), Katy Perry, The Killers...The musical taste in germany is the same like in the U.S. Best regards from germany. We are not so different. Alles Gute für Euch! Bleibt gesund!

Nena is still hot but she was so adorable and hot with the mullet back in '82-'84. Absolutely was in love with her eyes and her facial expressions. As a 16 year-old I am sure I would have given a limb to spend a day with her. Her clothes were super cool and her voice made German sound sexy. The natural armpits were part of her mystique. Go check out some of her earliest videos (nur getraumt, "99") broadcast on German TV....she was irresistible! I might still be in love.
