Tzimis Panousis Biography

Tzimis Panousis is one of the most popular and richest Celebrity who was born on February 12, 1954 in Athens, Greece. Tzimis Panousis (Greek: Δημήτρης “Τζίμης” Πανούσης ; 12 February 1954 – 13 January 2018) was a Greek musician, stand-up comedian and occasional film and theater actor born in Athens, where he spent most of his life. His fans often refer to him as “Tzimakos” (little Jim). His first wife was Lili Achladioti with whom he had a son, Aris. He later married Athina Aidini and they had a daughter, Fotini.

In 1997, a court battle with well-known Greek singer George Dalaras began. Panousis had frequently been making fun of Dalaras in his live shows, showing money coming out of his mouth whenever he sang. The court ruled that Panousis would be charged with a one million Drachmas fine (approximately $3,000) every time he mentioned Dalaras by name on-stage. Panousis’s response to that, was to call him “the unmentionable” in his shows from then on, and use his famous on-stage quip, “Ladies and gentlemen, I have 3 million drachmas to spare: Dalaras, Dalaras, Dalaras!”

In 2013, Greek Jewish organisations were appalled by the use of a symbol consisting of the David star entwined with a swastika (the symbol itself is used by the Raelites) for the posters of his show “Troika Club”. In relation to this symbol, Panousis has been using the term “nazi Jews” (“εβραιοναζί” in Greek) when describing current Israeli politics.

Panousis died on 13 January 2018 after suffering a heart attack at his home in Athens. He had previously been hospitalized after collapsing on stage in December 2017.

Panousis had several run-ins with the Greek authorities. His second album, Musical Brigades (Μουσικές Ταξιαρχίες in Greek), was briefly withdrawn from circulation in 1982 because of the ostensibly blasphemous lyrics of a love ballad. In 1984, censors placed beeps over some of the lyrics in Mousikes Taxiarhies’s third album, An I Giagia Mou Ihe Rouleman (If My Grandma Had Wheels).

Dimitrios Panousis made his first appearance in the mid-1970s, performing in various pubs, with his band “Mousikes Taxiarhies” (Musical Brigades, Greek: Μουσικές Ταξιαρχίες ). Panousis was the vocalist and main composer of the group. Their first (unofficial) album was Disco Tsoutsouni (Disco Willy) released in 1980. It was a bootleg tape, many songs of which were later rerecorded for the band’s official debut, their eponymous album in 1982. The band went under the alias “Alamana’s Bridge” to make a guest appearance with two songs in the compilation album Made in Greece. In 1986, Mousikes Taxiarhies was disbanded and Panousis went solo. His subsequent successful career showed that he could be a band on his own.

Panousis had hosted various radio shows for more than 15 years. He was also the author of six books (a peculiar type of sarcastic essays). Moreover, he had appeared in four movies: the most notable is The Dracula of Exarcheia (1981, directed by Nicos Zervos), where Panousis was the protagonist. From September 2008 to June 2009, he hosted a 30-minute radio show, called Dourios Ihos (Trojan Sound) at the radio station “City 99,5”. The show was hosted in “Radio Thema 98,9”.

Panousis had been accused by the Central Board of Jewish Communities in Greece of expressing antisemitic views, not seldom in connection with his standpoint in the Israel-Palestine conflict. During an episode of his satirical show Δούρειος Ήχος (“Trojan Sound”) at the radio channel City 99,5 in 2009, he used expressions such as “Jews – Pigs – Murderers […] may you die a horrible death” and “[…] the jews control all the banks in the American empire, they control all of the show biz […]”, while also referring to the conflict in Gaza.
