Connection
Jintara Poonlarp is a Actor Thailandaise born on 6 march 1969
Jintara Poonlarp (Thai: จินตหรา พูนลาภ, rtgs: Chintara Phunlap, b. March 12, 1971, in Kaset Wisai District, Roi Et Province, Thailand) is a Thai mor lam, luk thung and pop music singer. She is one of the most popular and prolific of the artists in the mor lam (Thai country) and luk thung (Thai pop-country) genres, having released 40 original albums as well as many compilations. She records roughly equal amounts of mor lam and luk thung, but two of her best-known songs are the string (Thai pop) hits "Ma Tammai" and "Faen Ja," recorded with Bird McIntyre. She is also sometimes known by her nickname Jin or the epithet sao siang pin (Thai: สาวเสียงพิณ, meaning "lute-voiced girl").
Born in Thailand's Isan region, Jintara's birth name was Tongbai Janlueang but this changed to Tongbai Poonlarp when her parents registered their marriage. Jintara is her stage name. Although March 12 is commonly given as her birth date she celebrates her birthday on March 6, and this is the date of birth on her ID card. On her Facebook page the year she was born is given as 1969. Her mother could not remember the exact date she was born, not uncommon in rural Thailand in previous decades
She began performing in her early teens. She made 20 audio-only recordings for GMM Grammy and later a further five for the Master Tape record label. She has since made a further series of recordings for Master Tape, variously entitled Luk tung sa on and Mor lam sa on, each on VCD, CD and audio tape formats ("sa on" in the Isan language meaning roughly "enjoyable").
A number of greatest hits collections have also been issued, some of which contain videos of songs from the first audio-only series. Her first five albums included only luk thung, but since then most have combined luk thung, mor lam and sometimes string (Thai pop). Her most famous string songs are "Ma Tammai" and "Faen Ja," both in collaboration with Bird McIntyre. She tours with a live show from September to May each year and has made several appearances in Europe and North America.
Voice and image
Jintara has a distinctively rough-edged voice (About this sound listen ). Her music is strongly pop-influenced, with western instruments dominant. Her image also tends to the contemporary and Western: In most of her videos both she and her dancers wear modern dress, and one album cover, Mor lam sa on 8, was an imitation of Beyoncé's Dangerously in Love.
Among her best-known songs is "Sǎo Isǎan plát tìn" [Thai: สาวอีสานพลัดถิ่น] ("Isan girl separated from her home," album 9), which incorporates the typical Thai country themes of poverty, homesickness and an unfaithful lover. "Arlai World Trade" ("Mourning the World Trade Center," album Luk tung sa on 6) aroused comment in Thailand's English-language press for the way it addressed the September 11, 2001 attacks: "the reigning Morlam superstar of Thailand laments the attacks of September 11 while young, bare-midriffed Thai girls gyrate in front of a surging American flag".
In 2003, the Thai Ministry of Culture proposed banning one of her songs, "Tears of a Lieutenant's Wife" ("Namta mia nairoi") on state-run media.
In 2004, she began studying for a degree in political science at Rajabhat Institute Suan Sunandha, Bangkok, from which she was due to graduate in 2006. Newspaper reports suggested that she was considering standing as an MP for the Chart Thai (Thai Nation) party, but would not be able to do so until she had graduated; she did not stand in the 2005 election. She was awarded an honorary degree by the Rajabhat Institute of Roi Et in October 2004.
By February 2006, she had released 38 original albums plus numerous compilations.
Film and television
In 2001, Jintara played her first role television role in the series Nai Hoy Tamin, about the life of rural people in Isan in historical times. She co-starred in the 2006 action film, Chai Lai (Dangerous Flowers), portraying a member of a top-secret team of female crimefighters.
