Anna Loos, the daughter of a nurse and an engineer, grew up in the city of Brandenburg and took ballet lessons from the age of six. [1] At the age of thirteen, she used her pocket money to finance singing lessons with the Bulgarian opera singer Jana Mikhailova at the Brandenburg Theatre. [2][3] Loos was rejected at the Hanns Eisler School of Music because she cultivated a punk attitude at the time, not only in her clothing style. As a teenager, she played in the punk band Leck mich am Arsch. [4]
In 1988, as a 17-year-old, Loos fled from the GDR to the Federal Republic of Germany with a friend via Czechoslovakia, Hungary and Austria. [3] From the Giessen refugee camp, she moved in with an aunt in Wedel and attended the local Johann-Rist-Gymnasium until the 12th grade. [5]
Loos continued her vocal training and played in various bands. With a big band, she undertook a tour to Canada, among other things. [2] She lived in Hamburg for 13 years and completed her training at the Stage School Hamburg from 1992. She found her way to acting through music. [6]
