Judy Weiss (Judith Tudorica, 1972, Berlin) is a German singer whose career began with piano lessons at age six and eight years of study in piano and voice at a music school, followed by training at the Hochschule für Musik „Hanns Eisler". She entered the public eye in 1993 when her single "Cinderella" entered the German charts, launching a series of musical theatre roles including Anita in West Side Story (1994) and Esmeralda in Der Glöckner von Notre‑Dame. Her 1995 duet with Andrea Bocelli, "Vivo per lei – Ich lebe für sie", became a Swiss number one hit. She released the albums Geh Deinen Weg (1993), Schütz mich! (1995), Something Real (1999), and Believe (2001). The 2008 single "Just Because I Love You" was issued on Jack White's Gloriella Music, followed later that year by "Music Was My First Love", also produced by Jack White and a remake of the John‑Miles classic. Judy Weiss continued to produce music with Here I am(2014) and the recent Alles was zählt (2023). In addition to recordings, she organises the monthly Firstfriday project in Berlin with jazz pianist Maria Baptist, featuring rotating guests, and has appeared on programs such as ZDF Hitparade and ZDF Fernsehgarten.
