Meryl Streep

Meryl Streep is an American actress widely regarded as one of the greatest performers of her generation, known primarily for her extensive film career rather than music. Her connection to music largely stems from her performances in musical films, most notably «Mamma Mia!» (2008) and its sequel, in which she sang ABBA songs including «The Winner Takes It All», «Dancing Queen», «Money, Money, Money» and «Slipping Through My Fingers» as the character Donna Sheridan.

Streep also took on singing roles in other projects, such as «Into the Woods» (2014), based on the Stephen Sondheim musical, and «Ricki and the Flash» (2015), in which she played an aging rock musician. Her vocal performances, while secondary to her acting reputation, were praised for their emotional depth and served the storytelling of each film.

While Streep is not a recording artist in the traditional sense, her musical film work has left a lasting cultural footprint, particularly through «Mamma Mia!», which introduced her ABBA covers to a global audience and remains closely associated with her name in popular culture.
