Dianna Marie St. Hilaire,[1] better known as Opāru, is an American actor, singer and composer from Los Angeles, California.

Teaching herself how to read music and play the piano at age 8, she spent most of her younger years in school choirs and friends bands.

She temporarily gave up the idea of pursuing music, but began to write again at age 18 after leaving home.

That same year Versailles took her project into an even more industrial sound,[6] leading to the release of Kiss on the Evileye label.

In Jennifer Layton's Indie Music Review of "Believe", she wrote "Versailles is a dark pop mistress with gothic influences and a voice that can be breathy and innocent even when she’s rasping and pleading and crying out to the heavens".

[11] In 2005 Versailles was approached and asked to do a song for the Cleopatra Records compilation A Gothic Acoustic Tribute To Nine Inch Nails.

[20] In 2011 Versailles evolved her sound again, making the synthpop/dance EP Sacrifice using influences of Depeche Mode and Joy Division.

Versailles played the Keytar, and she added Stephanie Rose on bass and Marie Ilene on drums to create an all-female band.

This album has songs from Broken Dolls, Sacrifice, and Wendy’s Razorblades, and it was listed on the 55th Grammy ballot.
