Louise was born on 4 November 1974, in Croydon, Surrey. In her teens, she attended the Italia Conti stage school, concentrating on developing her singing and dancing skills.

Until July 1995, Louise was a member of the highly successful girl group, Eternal. Her popularity continued when she left the group. She had success after success with a string of solo hit singles - ‘Light of My Life’, ‘In Walked Love’, ‘Naked’, ‘Undivided Love’, and ‘One Kiss from Heaven’.

Her new album, produced after a nine-month break, shows a new maturity in her work with the lead-off single from the album ‘Arms Around The World’, already a hit.

With her good looks and bubbly personality she has received a number of awards including ‘Sexiest British Woman’! The ones she takes seriously, though, are those that recognise her musical ability such as her Smash Hits Award for ‘Best Female Singer’ and her nomination for Best British Female Artist.
