Greta Thunberg's little sister now wants to be famous too - but she is pursuing a different strategy.
- Environmental activist Greta Thunberg is fighting for climate protection.
- Her little sister also wants to start a career now.
- But Beata Thunberg wants to become famous for a completely different reason.
Stockholm - Greta Thunberg stands for climate protection. Since the 17-year-old founded the Fridays-for-Future movement two years ago, it has become an integral part of the spotlight. Now her little sister wants to do it for her - and also conquer the big stage. But unlike her big sister Greta, she wants to go public for a completely different reason.
Greta Thunberg's sister wants to pursue a career as a singer
The two sisters couldn't be more different. While Greta Thunberg is committed to saving the climate *, her sister now wants to pursue a career as a singer. Beata Thunberg is a musician - this has nothing to do with climate protection. One thing is certain for her: she wants to sing and shows herself from a completely different side than her sister.
15-year-old Beata is not entirely unknown in the music scene. For example, she has appeared on stage as a singer and appeared on Swedish television several times. As the picture reports, she sang a song about school bullying in a Swedish private broadcaster last year. And admitted: "I was bullied too."
In September, she and her mother Malena Ernman will be premiering on stage . The two sing in a musical about the French chanson singer Edith Piaf. The musical "Forever Piaf" starts on September 19 in Stockholm. While mother Malena plays the singer as a grown woman, Beata shows her younger image. “It is nice that I can perform with my daughter. There is nobody I trust so musically, ”says Mother Malena, according to the picture on Sunday, about working with her daughter.

Greta Thunberg: climate activist comes from a famous family
The urge to stand on stage is clearly in the family. Because other members of the Thunberg clan are also famous. Beata Thunberg inherited the singing talent from her mother Malena Ernman. She is a successful opera singer and even performed for Sweden in 2009 at the Eurovision Song Context (ESC). As a child she sang in choirs and received extensive singing training. After her appearance at the ESC 2009, she made her way to Berlin, Paris, Vienna, Amsterdam and Barcelona. Father Svante Thunberg became known in Sweden as an actor, film producer and screenwriter. He has also been the manager and producer of his wife Malena since 2004.
Greta supports her sister. In April 2019 she posted a photo together and wrote: “I am so proud of my little super talented sister. Listen to her new song on Spotify! ”She also posted the link to the song on Instagram.

Beata Thunberg: Not an easy childhood next to Greta
After her sister Greta was diagnosed with depression, Beata Thunberg did not have it easy. According to the picture , Beata told a Swedish TV station that she felt very "lonely" at the time. She describes the situation at home like this: “There was nothing I could do. I kept myself apart. "
But Beata was also found to have a mental disorder . She suffers from Attention Deficit Disorder (ADHD) and has also been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome. Asperger's syndrome is a milder form of autism.
Greta is also an issue at carnival - but not because of its demonstrations for the climate, but as a costume trend.
