Artist Biography
Available in:
Holly Valance (born Holly Rachel Vukadinovic, Melbourne, 11 May 1983) is an Australian actress, singer, and model. Valance began her career as Felicity "Flick" Scully on the Australian soap opera Neighbours. In 2002 she released her first album, Footprints, which included the international number-one hit single "Kiss Kiss".
Valance's first single as a recording artist was a cover of the Turkish singer Tarkan's "Kiss Kiss" (composed by the Turkish "diva" Sezen Aksu), released in 2002. The song entered both the Australian Recording Industry Association and UK Singles Charts charts at No. 1 in April/May 2002. The director's cut version of the music video was notable in that Valance appeared to be dancing naked. She revealed that she was topless but also wearing flesh-coloured underwear. The footage was digitally retouched adding strategically placed lighting effects. The song was nominated for four ARIA Music Awards.
Valance's next single, "Down Boy" peaked at No. 2 in the UK and at No. 3 in Australia. Her first album, Footprints, was released on 14 October 2002. It peaked in its first week at No. 9 in the UK and No. 15 in Australia. The album's third and final single "Naughty Girl" peaked at No. 3 in Australia and at No. 16 in the UK. In 2003, the first single "State of Mind" from Valance's second album State of Mind peaked in its first week No. 8 in the UK and at No. 14 in Australia, but the album did not reach the top 50 in either country.
Valance has also featured in other music videos, first in 2000 when she appeared in Human Nature's music video "He Don't Love You", and again in 2009 with the British electro-pop newcomer Frankmusik in the video for his single "Confusion Girl".
