Doro explains why she decided to be single and not have kids
“What you see is what you get. Usually I’m always on tour or in the studio. That’s definitely my world. And I never thought of settling down or getting married or having kids. Maybe another lifetime, but it’s not much to it. I have a friend — yeah, he’s kind of a boyfriend — and have many friends. I never felt the urge to get married and [have] kids.”
“I made up my mind when I was 24. I was one day waking up. I was living in New York City, which I love so much, New York. And then I woke up and I thought, ‘Okay, today I will choose my priorities.’ And then I thought, what do I really want? And then it was clear. I wanna do music and I wanna make people happy, empower people. And I wanna do it for the fans as long as I live. And that is my life. I don’t have many hobbies as well. It’s only studio, working on songs, going on tour, rehearsing, doing stuff for the fans. And yeah, that’s about it,” Doro Pesch said.
Nicknamed The Metal Queen, Doro Pesch was born in Düsseldorf, West Germany in 1964. She started her musical career in 1980 and first gained fame as the vocalist of Warlock then forming her own band called Doro. She released 14 stuido albums on her solo career and four with Warlock.
