Petula Louise "Patty" Brard (born March 25, 1955) is a Dutch singer, television personality, actress and entrepreneur, most notable for being a former member of the girl groupLuv'. For five decades, she has often hit the headlines of the tabloid press.
Since 1983, Brard has been active on television as a host/presenter. She hosted the Candid Camera-like TV programs such as De Bananasplit Show and Gaan met die Banaan as well as the 1985 edition of the San Remo Festival and the 2001 version of Big Brother. Inspired by the success of The Osbournes, she appeared in reality television shows that featured her life, the most popular being Patty's Posse (2003–2004). Her participation in the ice skating competition Sterren Dansen Op Het IJs (2007) and the celebrity diving competition Sterren Springen Op Zaterdag (also known as Celebrity Splash!) were highly covered events.[1] Since 2007, she has been a showbiz expert on the entertainment news program Shownieuws on SBS 6. Brard was also involved in other shows on the same channel including De Nieuwe Uri Geller ("The new Uri Geller"), Wie Ben Ik? ("Who Am I?"), K2 zoekt K3, Bonje Met De Buren ("Trouble With Neighbours") and the Dutch version of Dancing On Ice.
In 2009, 2013, 2015 and 2019, she signed exclusive deals with SBS Broadcasting B.V. (taken over by Talpa Network in 2011).[2][3] Currently, she is working as a freelance TV host.
Since February 2020 Patty Brard has launched collections of household items, jewellery and skincare lines in association with Kruidvat shops in the Netherlands.
Early life
Petula Louise Brard was born on March 25, 1955, in Sorong, Dutch New Guinea (now West Papua, Indonesia). She is of Indo (Dutch-Indonesian) descent, with some distant French and German heritage. The family moved to the Netherlands when Brard was eleven years old, settling in Rijswijk.
In 1981, Brard was the first Luv' member to start a solo career. She recorded in the 1980s three albums (All This Way, You're in the Pocket and Red Light) in Los Angeles. She collaborated with sought-after session musicians (including Billy Preston, Paulinho Da Costa, Paul Jackson, Jr. and Jai Winding).[7][8][9] Brard's American recordings were not as popular as those of Luv' (except the single "Hold On To Love" which was a Top 20 hit in the Netherlands, a Top 10 hit in Belgium and which reached the 12th position in South Africa in 1981).
She is used to record duets:
In 1986, she performed the ballad "Tender Love", released as a single, with Eddie Kendricks.[10]
In 2000, she sang a track with Def Rhymz, a Dutch rapper.
In 2004, she recorded the single "Huilen is voor jou te laat" with Jacques Herb, which was a minor hit on the Dutch charts (#64 on the Mega Top 100).[11]
In 2005, the duet "That's Life" with her lover Derick was the theme of Pat's Life, one of her reality television shows.
In 2006, her Carnival song "Ik wil knallen" with Ome Henk became a Dutch Top 5 hit.[12]
In 2012, she released the digital single "Carnavals Party Hitmix"[13] with Alex.
In 2015, she put out the digital single "Bonje Met De Buren"[14] with Joey Hartkamp and Jochem van Gelder.
In 2017, the song "Wat Zijn Ze Lekker"[15] (with Roy Donders) came out.
In 2018, the song "We Zullen De Laatsten Zijn" (with Roy Donders)[16] was released.
In 1997, as the Spice Girls world phenomenon reached its peak, Brard hired five young women to form a short-lived female pop group Patty Cash. Hans van Hemert did the production on the quintet's recordings.
Moreover, the same year, she was part of a Dutch All Stars choir (BN'ers voor BNN) which recorded "Hij gaat voor C",[17] a parodic cover version of "We Are the World" that reached the 3rd position on the Dutch Top 40. Six years later, she briefly formed her own girls band "Enuv'", inspired by her experience as a Luv' member. In 2010, NRGY Music released Brard's Schlager oriented single "Het leven is een feest" (Life is a party)[18] for the Carnival festivities in the Netherlands, which peaked at No. 8[19] in the Netherlands. In 2011, she had two other hits: "Waarom zou drinken een zonde zijn" (#21 on the Single Top 100[20]) and "Bunga, Bunga" (#64 on the Single Top 100[21]).
2022 saw her comeback as a solo singer as she released the Carnival single "In M'n Panterpak" on digital platforms. This song came out simultaneously with her panther-print collection for Kruidvat. It entered the Dutch iTunes Top 100 at #5 on February 18, 2022. It peaked at #2 on February 20, 2022. On March 3, 2022, it dropped out of this chart.

In 1985, she presented with Pippo Baudo the Sanremo Music Festival on the Italian TV channel Rai Uno.
In early 2001, in her TV show Absolutely Patty on Yorin, she interviewed VIPs in her house. In that year she also hosted the third Dutch edition of Big Brother.
Two years later, a reality TV programme Patty's Posse featured her domestic life, her friends and her family (her daughter Priscilla, and her third husband René).
In the autumn of 2004, she was filmed with other celebrities (among them, her Luv' colleague Marga Scheide) as they were having a health cure in Ibiza.
On March 25, 2005, she celebrated her 50th birthday, which spawned a special TV programme Pat's Life (in which she met the most important persons in her life) was prepared. Later that year RTL 5 broadcast Lieve Patty, in which Brard helped desperate candidates to solve their love problems.
In 2006, the docusoap Back in Luv' featured Luv's reunion.
Her funny performance in Sterren Dansen op het IJs (the Dutch version of Skating with Celebrities) in January 2007 was a heavily covered media event. After a 15-year-long partnership with RTL Nederland, she signed a contract with SBS 6. She was involved in several programs:
"Shownieuws" (an entertainment news show) she presented from February 2007 to May 2011.[22]
"De Nieuwe Uri Geller" (the Dutch version of paranormal talent contest "The Successor", which was high in the ratings in 2008–2009). She was a regular guest on the first season, co-hosted the second season with Tooske Ragas and the third edition with Beau van Erven Dorens. She was also part of a jury on the 2010 edition.
"Wie Ben Ik?". She was a team captain on this game show with Gerard Joling (the 2008 season scored good ratings but the next edition lost half of its viewers).[23]
K2 zoekt K3, a talent show with Brard in the jury and whose aim was to search the new member of Flemish girl group K3.[24]
The second season of "Coming to Holland: Prins zoekt vrouw", the Dutch version of Undercover Princes aired between November 2010 and January 2011.[25]
In addition to the presentation of her own shows, Brard has often been invited on successful TV shows, like (Mooi! Weer De Leeuw, Jensen! and Life & Cooking...).
In April 2011, Sanoma and Talpa took over SBS Nederland.[26] One month later, Brard's deal was not extended.[27] Soon after, RTL Nederland announced that Brard would appear in September 2011 on a reality program Diva's draaien door,[28] with former rivals Patricia Paay and Tatjana Simic.
Her participation in Sterren Springen Op Zaterdag (also known as Celebrity Splash!) in 2012 boosted her career. January 2013 saw Patty's comeback on "Shownieuws".

In late August 2021, she started the filming of "De grote huisverbouwing", a home renovation show on SBS6. The first episode of this program was broadcast on October 24, 2021.[30]
Her contract with Talpa was not renewed in March 2023. However, Patty Brard remains a freelancer on SBS6's infotainment news program "Shownieuws".
