Yvonne Elliman

She began her singing career in London in 1969 and was discovered by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber, who asked her to sing the part of Mary Magdalene on their original concept album for "Jesus Christ Superstar". After the album's 1970 release she was part of the traveling cast for four years, appearing on the London stage, the original Broadway production, and in the film version. She had a Billboard Hot 100 Hit Single in 1971 with the song "I Don't Know How to Love Him" from the album. One of only two people to appear on the original album, in the stage versions, and the movie, her performance as Mary Magdalene brought her a 1974 Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress in a Motion Picture Comedy or Musical.
