Story
In 1987, 20-year-old Nicki Chapman wasn't meant to be walking through the seedy but sublime Soho streets towards MCA records; she was supposed to be living it up in the much sunnier climes of Australia. But fate, as it turned out, had much louder plans for her...Everyone knows that in the 90s and 00s there were king-makers in pop music, namely Simon Fuller and Simon Cowell. But this is the story of the queen - who wasn't so much a marionette pulling strings as a down-to-earth, no-nonsense team player who made it in the music industry when it was very much a man's world.

Tradicionalmente, los músicos han sido objeto de adoración. Una admiración que, en ocasiones, roza la devoción religiosa. Colas interminables, y hasta desmayos, para los conciertos, posters decorando las habitaciones de los adolescentes, portadas de miles de publicaciones y miles de biografías escritas sobre talentosos músicos que, por lo general, representan la imagen del éxito. Con humor desenfadado y un toque gamberro, Santi Giménez y Malcolm Otero te enseñan el lado más oscuro de esos genios que, muy probablemente, hayan formado parte de la banda sonora de tu vida.

Je veux partager avec vous mes échecs, mes triomphes et les leçons que j'en ai tirées.

But Abigail’s journey wasn’t always marked by such confidence. Growing up deaf and introverted, she dreaded being the center of attention, fearing her disability would burden those around her.
