She began her artistic journey in 1960 as a theatre actress, predominantly performing Bertolt Brecht works under Giorgio Strehler at Milan's Piccolo Teatro. Simultaneously, she launched her music career, earning the moniker 'cantante della mala' for singing Milanese songs about the criminal underworld. Vanoni achieved notable success with hits like 'Senza Fine' and 'Che cosa c'è', both written by Gino Paoli, and won the Festival of Neapolitan song in 1964 with 'Tu si na cosa grande'. She has recorded over 112 albums and sold over 65 million records. Vanoni has also acted in movies, posed nude for Playboy magazine in 1977, and had her music featured in films like Ocean's Twelve.
