After starring in the Australian soap opera Neighbours as a prim and proper schoolgirl, she made a comeback as a pop sensation with sultry chart-topping tunes.
Twenty years later, Holly Valance is now the face of former US President Donald Trump’s campaign in the UK.
She held a private fundraising event in London on Wednesday. Tickets for the event started at $10,000 (£7,800), and dinner cost $50,000.
“It’s a Holly party,” Nigel Farage, a friend of Valance and another Trump supporter, told the news prior to the fundraiser event that was held close to the Chelsea Embankment. “You can guarantee it’s going to be enormous fun.”
Valance has undergone a significant public metamorphosis; her reappearance as a political surrogate may come as a surprise to those in Britain and Australia who recall her as it.
Neighbors, or Kiss Kiss, is her 2002 smash song.
In 1983, Valance was born Holly Rachel Vukadinovic in Melbourne, Australia, to Serb-British parents. She went to a strict Catholic school, where she once mentioned that wearing a hem too high may get her in trouble.
