 | | Relying in her dizzying curves and hot dancing style, the Carioca vocalist Gretchen (sister of Sula Miranda's, with whom she kept in their teens the short-lived group As Melindrosas) was launched in the late 70's by Mister Sam, soon performing around Brazil with the group Záccaro. |
 | | After her TV debut at the Sílvio Santos show, she was invited to record "Dance With Me", but big hits ("Freak Le Boom Boom", "Melô do Piripiri", "Conga Conga Conga" "I Love You/Je T'Aime") came only between 1980-2 with My Name Is Gretchen, You and Me and Lonely. |
 | | With the decline of her vogue in the 80's, despite her efforts in the exploration of new fashionable rhythms like the lambada, she converted to Protestantism and became a gospel singer. |
