*1950 NZ
Pop
Born in 1950 in Auckland, New Zealand, she started recording for Zodiac at age 13. Five years later she had a massive crossover hit in NZ with I Have Loved Me A Man which sold 30,000 copies (triple platinum in NZ terms). Moving to Australia at the end of the 60s she was named "Queen of Pop" in 1969, 70 & 71. In the mid 70s she became one of the biggest country stars in Australia, although was largely forgotten in NZ. Sadly her career later declined and she was in the news in 2007 after being jailed in a drug case in Melbourne.
