It is interesting to see how various HINRG Diva`s careers took off/diversified after the HINRG boom years...

SINITTA. Miquel also performed at the MARDI GRAS last year in gran Canaria (along with ANGIE GOLD/VIOLA WILLS/SINITTA/SONIA)

EARLENE BENTLEY - Earlene abandoned the dance music/hinrg scene in the mid 80s after recording two tracks on the NIGHTMARE label. She then embarked on a career in the theatre and has appeared regularly in many musicals/stage productions (South Pacific/Children of eden) and had great reviews. She returned to the HINRG scene briefly in the 90s - recording tracks for the UK label, ALMIGHTY..Under the name of ROYAL T (Baby Don`t cha leave me this way, & freedom) - She also recorded the disco classic "YMCA and a track called Stop that man ! under the name GLAMORAMA.

ANGIE GOLD - Angie recorded various HINRG disco tracks on various labels up to 1989 (Right back in the middle) on NIGHTMARE RECORDS. More recently she has become a regular recording artist for thr UK label, KLONE - recording under the name - PRIMA

VIOLA WILLS - Viola has always been a popular vocalist on the dance/disco/Hinrg scene and has had a hugely successful career that is still going strong... She is now permanently based in Brighton, UK and records for a local based dance label - She also makes regular appearances at the local Jazz clubs.

If you have any differing info.. or details about other HINRG divas - please feel free to add to the list !!!

She played a prostitute - it was about the time Eat You Up came out and there were the press stories about throwing a milk bottle at her other half's bit on the side... Eat You Up was number one in Japan for months wasn't it?
