MEDIA ALERT: Billboard Magazine names Cynthia Basinet’s “Santa Baby” TOP 10!
Cynthia Basinet is a shared Nobel Peace Prize nominated and critically acclaimed self-released sultry singer, actress, activist and innovator. Best known for her iconic glamorous style and version of “Santa Baby” oft-miscredited to Marilyn Monroe and influencing nearly ever artist who has re-recorded the song since 2000. Featured in soundtracks from “Party Monster” to CBS's “NCIS LA”) She is compared to artists ranging from Tony Bennett, Nat King Cole, Dinah Washington, Ella Fitzgerald, Doris Day to Jamie Cullum, Harry Connick Jr, Madeline Peyroux, Al Jarreau, Amy Winehouse, Oleta Adams and more. Her influential style has been embraced by pop artists for decades from Kylie Minogu, Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga to Selena Gomez.

"one of the most sultry, seductive voices in the history of music"
"For Cynthia Basinet, her voice itself is an instrument. In terms of emotional power, it\'s a lethal weapon. Sensual, emotionally damaged and world weary."
