Samantha Fox – Born In 1966

Samantha Fox rose to prominence in her hometown of the UK as a “Page 3 girl.” Indeed, this pin-up became “one of the most photographed British women of the 1980s,” credits to her striking blonde hair, cheeky girl next door charm, and natural curves.

On the other hand, Fox was better known on the other side of the Atlantic for a succession of sexy and lively dance-pop singles that recalled Laura Branigan and Kim Wilde. Touch Me (I Want Your Body), Naughty Girls (Need Love Too), and I Wanna Have Some Fun charted in the Top 10 in the US—all three parent albums charted on the Billboard 200. This ’80s singer seemed to vanish from view after her 1989 cover of Dusty Springfield’s I Only Wanna Be With You—at least, in the US. Back in her birthplace, the multi-talented actress has continued to work in the entertainment industry.
