Who Am I?
My grandparents' part Jewish heritage saw them flee Germany in the 1930's and settle in Cambridge, England. It was here that I was born in the late 1940's and lived for several years before my family migrated, eventually settling in Melbourne, Australia.
I was part of a band at age 15 and continued to appear on several talent shows, before eventually winning a trip to England on the talent contest “Sing, Sing, Sing”.
In England I formed a duo with my friend Pat and we frequented nightclubs throughout Europe with our act. In the early 1970's I represented the United Kingdom in the Eurovision song contest and also continued to push for recognition within the CountryMusic scene in the United States.
My fame catapulted in the late 1970's, when at the age of 30 I scored a role in what is now an all time cult movie classic, working opposite a rising Hollywood star. It was from this point onward that I gained musical success, collaborating with many key industry figures throughout the 80's cementing my role as a music icon.
I am divorced and have a 21 year old daughter to my first husband. I have also been in the press in recent years due to my high profile relationships. |
