Amanda Lear is French actress, model, singer, lyricist, painter, and television presenter. She gained European success from the mid-1970s to the early 1980s as a disco music star. She was also longtime muse of surrealist artist Salvador Dali and rockstar David Bowie. Amanda Lear first surfaced in the early '70s as a fetishistically clothed album-cover model for Roxy Music. She was said to be a transsexual. Ever since she first hit London back in the Sixties, the "abnormal" rumours have swirled. According to some, she was born with the name Alain Tapp and she worked as a male stripper under the name Peki D'Oslo in a Parisian club called Le Carrousel. Then she visited the famous sex change surgeon Dr Bourou in Casablanca. But, as she told Interview magazine, that was just a ruse dreamed up by her sponsor, David Bowie, to draw attention.
Amanda’s origins are unclear, with her herself providing different information about her birth date and place, birth gender, names and nationalities of her parents, and the location of her upbringing. According to her, she was born in Saigon, French Indochina (now Vietnam). In fact she doesn't look fully French/European to me, she looks East Asian admixed.

And this is an excerpt from an article from an Italian newspaper surfaced online in November 2011, including a reproduction of a copy of Lear's birth certificate, which states that she was born Alain Maurice Louis René Tap on 18th of June 1939 in Saigon. The article also included a picture of Lear before her supposed transition:
