Engelbert Humperdinck (born as Arnold George Dorsey on May 2, 1936, in
Madras, India), a popular British and American singer who attained
international celebrity as a musician in the 1960s and who first began
singing in the early 1950s. He began his early life living in Madras but
moved away with his parents to Leicester, England, in 1947. Music came
into his world at a young age, and Humperdinck obtained this gift per
se, from his very musically talented mother. Humperdinck parents were a
British soldier and engineer named Mervyn Dorsey and his mother was
Olive. He was also one of ten children in addition.
At the age
of eleven, Humperdinck not only expressed a genuine interest in music,
but he also began to learn how to play the saxophone too. It was his
aspiration for a long time to become a bandleader and he did in fact
play in many nightclubs in the early 1950s. Singing was something that
Humperdinck did not even consider to do until he was seventeen years old
when some friends talked him into trying out for a pub contest. Being
in this pub contest was the first time that the young man had sang in
public and been on a stage. After belting out a ballad, the young
Humperdinck got a standing ovation for this tune, and this is when he
decided to pursue singing as a career for the very first time. Because
of the fact that he was so good at doing Jerry Lewis impressions, his
friends dubbed him Gerry Dorsey, a name he would work under
professionally as a singer for the next ten years. He got a spot on a UK
TV series called Oh Boy, did a tour with Marty Wilde, and even recorded
his first single called "I'll Never Fall in Love Again". Yet none of
this yielded him the dream that he had for himself. It would take
getting in touch with a former roommate and a complete name change to
get Gerry Dorsey the fame that he deserved. Gordon Mills was the person
who totally redid Gerry Dorsey as a singer when he gave him the name of
Engelbert Humperdinck. Mills knew the entertainment industry pretty well
and was the manager of such immense talents as Johnny Kidd and the
Pirates and Tom Jones.
Engelbert Humperdinck did officially
launch to overwhelming stardom as a singer with the release of his
version of the country song "Release Me" in 1967. Following the release
of this hit, Humperdinck topped the charts in both the UK and the US
with "There Goes My Everything" and "The Last Waltz." The combination of
Humperdinck sultry voice, rugged good looks, and truly awesome stage
presence established him as an international legend and a sex symbol to
millions of women everywhere. His estimated worth as a celebrity is
around 100 million dollars and he earned himself 59 Gold records, 17
Platinum albums, and a multitude of awards from Grammy Awards to Golden
Globe.
