Haha, I’m still none the wiser as to who she is! I’m afraid I don’t recognise either her picture(s) or her name.

She was in the series "Lost", as well as a number of films including "The Hurt Locker", "Ant-Man" and "Ant-Man & the Wasp"

Well so it is! Sorry, that clink you just heard was the sound of a penny dropping! I see her now from Ant-Man, doh!

(Though I don't recall the third one at all).
Wasn't one of their number one hits a film soundtrack? Singing the soundtrack to a film always seems to be the kiss of death to any singer or group.

About the only exception I can think of is Queen doing the soundtrack to Highlander and still having a career after.
Shirley Bassey
Matt Monro
The Supremes
Lulu
Dusty Springfield
Perry Como
Duran Duran
Tina Turner
Randy Newman


I'm sure there are more.
Not forgetting;
Tom Jones
Sheena Easton
Sorry, major brain fart, I thought they were all James Bond film theme singers!

That hairstyle does her no favours compared with 10 years ago.

I wasn't familiar with her but she's very attractive now, arguably better than then. Hairstyles change pretty easily.

Sung theme tunes for films were very popular in the 60s - and not just Bond..
Matt Miunro did “”The Italian Job” and “Born Free”.
Millicent Martin did “Alfie” although Cilla had the chart hit with the song.
As well as singing a Bond theme, Lulu also sang the title song for “To Sir With Love”.

Lulu did "To Sir With Love" when she was only 19 but already a well established artiste, I was also interested to see the film was written and directed by James Clavell of "Shogun" fame. Sorry a bit OT but I thought interesting.

I think grey/ silver hair looks amazing but that appears to be her one and only appearance with it, so either it's for a role or she's been dyeing like mad for years, which is going some for a 44yr old.

Going some for a 44 year old? Really.

My ex wife, my current wife, both my sisters and my mum were all doing theirs way before 44.

More and more women seem to be embracing the natural look here, which is brilliant

Well, there's the odd strand or streak, and then there's the full thatch which would be a bit strange at that age.

At late 40s I've yet to find any grey hairs on my head, though I'm sure they're in there somewhere, my facial fuzz is 50% or more white though.

Lulu also starred in the film. It was a great film and cast.

One of my friends was natural full grey in his early 20's.

Absolutely;

My daughter is totally long-hair, squirrel-grey at 30. She /rocks it/ too.

LOL, 49 and (almost) a half here, no grey hairs upon my head and I do have hair, although not a huge amount at the front, think Ant of Ant & Dec, but my beard though!

The wife is 50, she dies her hair as a) natural is a mousy brown which she hates and b) she does have the odd strand here and there of grey.

She wears short hair well as she is naturally very pretty, however the grey and short makes her look like she's in her 50's, if it was short and dark she would look younger but overall I think she looks better with long dark hair.
