Sting is the stage name of Gordon Matthew Sumner (born October 2, 1951), the English bassist and former lead singer of The Police until their breakup in 1983.

Sting has occasionally ventured into acting. He played the part of Feyd-Rautha in David Lynch's film Dune (1984) and also appeared in Guy Ritchie's movie Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels (1998).

It is unclear whether he was serious when he referred to himself as "manic-depressive". He has however, written a song entitled "Lithium Sunset", which appears to refer to lithium carbonate, a treatment for the disorder.

Sting has received many awards for his music, including 16 Grammy Awards. He received an honorary degree from Berklee College of Music in May 1994.
