30 years of Doro! 30 years of rock and metal! Last weekend in Las Vegas, Doro received her well-deserved award, acknowledging her decades-long dedication, passion and love of music. She was met with enthusiastic applause and a standing ovation by the crowd when she received the “Metal Goddess” Legends Award at Vegas Rocks Hair Metal Awards in the Casablanca Event Center of Eastside Cannery Casino.

Doro: “It was incredibly nice, the people celebrated endlessly and everyone in the hall stood up and clapped for me – even my colleagues couldn’t rest on their chairs.”

Those colleagues were the Scorpions, who received a lifetime achievement award, as well as Twisted Sister among others.

Doro received her third Legend Award in Las Vegas – she has already been honoured with two “Living Legend” awards; at the awards shows of prominent magazines in London and Berlin in 2013.

“The first two award shows were already phenomenal, but how the Americans celebrated the evening here in Vegas, that’s unbeatable,” Doro explains after her return to Dusseldorf.

But there isn’t much time for Doro to enjoy this happiness as tomorrow, she will fly to Krasnodar, Russia with her band for another show on her world tour – which will take place next weekend.
