She was the most popular member of all-girl uk band BANANARAMA in the 1980s, married to Dave Stewart of the Eurythmics and founder of her indie-band Shakespears Sister / Shakespear's Sister in the 1990s and now Siobhan is working on finally releasing her long awaited solo album.

Rather unbelievably, the song "Cruel Summer" by Bananarama, celebrates its 25th birthday this year. Anyone who grew up in the 1980's must remember this huge hit from all-girl group Bananarama.
And rather more unbelievably, for anyone who spent the summer of 1983 trying to look exactly like her, ex-Bananarama star Siobhan Fahey looks even better now than she did then.
Proof? Fahey stars in designer Katy Rodriguez's fall ad campaign, and to judge by the pics, time has not only treated her well, it's bathed her in milky splendor. "It was one of those, oh my God, that's HER moments," Rodriguez recalls of her first impression of Fahey. "That's the woman who should be wearing my clothes."
The two have a mutual friend, and Rodriguez had found herself seated across from the singer at a dinner party; the rest is, well, ad-campaign history. Though Rodriguez may have known instantly that Fahey belonged in her clothes, Fahey confesses to being "flattered and bemused" by the designer's overtures.
"Er, I'm 50 and I'm not a model," she says. "My initial response was, why me?" Forget Botox. Apparently, humility is the elixir of youth.
