For three decades, the inimitable Jasmin Wagner, fondly known as Blümchen, has been consistently churning out music. With a hefty multiple-million-record sales history, this Eurodance sensation is hailed as the most successful German solo artist of the 90s. Despite the continued release of music under her pseudonym in 2024, Wagner has chosen to call it quits and embark on a new phase of life.
"30 years of melodies, moments, and nostalgia...now it's time to cast the boomerang one final time. My ride began in the '90s, traversed generations, and now culminates with a grand farewell, saturated with love, gratitude, and raw emotions," Wagner shared with the "Bild" newspaper with a tremor of sentiment.

Wagner's music journey began in 1995, at the tender age of 15. She swiftly catapulted to fame in Germany, marking the era with her unique vocals and infectious dance rhythms, radically transforming the German music scene.
Post her first retirement at the turn of the millennium, Wagner has expressed her artistry through songs under her real name, and ventured into acting and presenting. Her noteworthy comeback as Blümchen in 2019 was marked by a resurgence of old hits on stage. In 2021, her sixth studio album, released under her birthname Jasmin Wagner, fetched widespread acclaim. In 2024, "Ravergirl" made its return to the charts as her first Blümchen single in half a decade.
In her personal life, Wagner is currently married for the second time and welcomed a daughter in November 2022. Following her retirement, the 44-year-old artist will now have more time to cherish her family. "The music has been my life's compass. Now I bid adieu to 30 electrifying years and a journey beyond what I could have ever envisaged," Wagner reminisced affectionately.
