It seems there has been a slight mix-up. Meryl Streep is not primarily known as a musician or recording artist, but rather as one of the most acclaimed and versatile actresses in the film industry. Born on June 22, 1949, in Summit, New Jersey, Streep has brought an array of characters to life on screen and has received numerous awards for her work, including several Academy Awards, Golden Globes, and other prestigious honors.
While Meryl Streep's main claim to fame is acting, her involvement in musical projects reflects her wide-ranging talents. She has showcased her singing abilities in films and their respective soundtracks, which accounts for the credits mentioned. "Wear Your Crown" is a song from the movie "The Prom," where Streep stars and performs as a Broadway diva. The "Florence Foster Jenkins (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)" features her vocal performances, mirroring the real-life Jenkins, who was known for her delightfully poor singing ability. With her work on "Robert Lepley: Visions Within - Spiritual Poems of Rainer Maria Rilke," she ventured into spoken word, lending her distinctive voice to the musical interpretations of poetry. "The Velveteen Rabbit (Special Edition)" is another spoken word project where Streep narrates the classic children’s story over soft piano accompaniment, showcasing her ability to enchant audiences with just her voice. While these projects highlight her vocal and narrative skills, they are but a footnote in the storied career of this extraordinary actress.
