Role added by kamsismith on August 29, 2023

Description of Jeanne-Paule Marie Deckers (The Singing Nun):

Jeanne-Paule Marie "Jeannine" Deckers, better known as Sœur Sourire (French for 'Smiling Sister') and often called The Singing Nun in English-speaking countries, was a Belgian singer-songwriter and a member of the Dominican Order in Belgium as Sister Luc Gabriel. She acquired widespread fame in 1963 with the release of the Belgian-French song "Dominique", which topped the US Billboard Hot 100 and other charts, along with her debut album. Owing to confusion over the terms of the recording contract, she was reduced to poverty, and also experienced a crisis of faith, quitting the order, though remaining a Catholic. She died by suicide with her lifelong partner, Annie Pécher.
