Around this time, Cowell was determined to make the record a hit so Sinitta contacted gay clubs all over the country as she had met them all before through her mother, Disco diva, Miquel Brown ('So many men so little time') and performed her 2 tracks with her friend Donnette, driving her. Sinitta's subsequent single following "So Macho", had charted low (number 45 UK Oct 1986) and only spent five weeks on the chart, whereas, in contrast, "So Macho" had been on the UK chart for 30 weeks in 1986, where it had peaked at Number 2.<ref name="Macho">{{cite web|url=http://www.chartstats.com/release.php?release=12985|title=Chartstats "So Macho" UK singles chart|publisher=Chartstats.com|date=1986-10-18|accessdate=2011-11-05}}</ref> Initially, Waterman declined to work with Sinitta, claiming that SAW were too busy.<ref name="rude">{{cite book|first=Simon|last=Cowell|title=I Don't Mean To Be Rude But...|publisher=Ebury Press|year=2004|isbn=978-0-09-189828-1}}</ref> SAW did work with Sinitta later however, and her first single with the Hit Factory was "]".

In his book, Cowell takes credit for the song idea for "Toy Boy", coining the phrase "toy boy", which described older women dating younger men.<ref name="rude"/> This is contradicted by writer/producer ] in his book, ''The Hit Factory - The Stock Aitken Waterman Story'', in which he claims that his inspiration came from the fact that Sinitta herself at the time was dating a younger man. "Toy Boy" was a hit, reaching Number 4 in the UK in July 1987, staying on the charts for 14 weeks.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.chartstats.com/release.php?release=14299|title=Chartstats "Toy Boy" UK singles chart|publisher=Chartstats.com|accessdate=2011-11-05}}</ref>
The phrase was coined by the fact a teenage Sinitta had started to date one of her backing dancers Sam Connery after a very high profile West End role playing the two decades older David Essex's love interest, Maimite the island Princess in Mutiny (on the Bounty). The papers had called her David's darling and Simon, her Svengali, now they were writing, 'Sinitta has a Toy Boy!' Pete Waterman loved the phrase and Toyboy was written in ten minutes for the young starlet.


Sinitta went on to have a further five hit singles with PWL including "]" (#15, December 1987), "]" (Number 6 - March 1988), "]" (Number 22 - September 1988), "]" (Number 4 - June 1989) and "]" (Number 20 - October 1989).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.chartstats.com/artistinfo.php?id=4528|title=Chartstats Sinitta UK Singles Chart|publisher=Chartstats.com|accessdate=2011-11-05}}</ref> Sinitta went on to have a further five hit singles with PWL including "]" (#15, December 1987), "]" (Number 6 - March 1988), "]" (Number 22 - September 1988), "]" (Number 4 - June 1989) and "]" (Number 20 - October 1989).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.chartstats.com/artistinfo.php?id=4528|title=Chartstats Sinitta UK Singles Chart|publisher=Chartstats.com|accessdate=2011-11-05}}</ref>

Sinitta Renet Malone (born October 19, 1968 in Seattle, Washington, United States), known professionally as Sinitta, is a British-American singer who has lived in the United Kingdom for most of her life. She is best known for her hit records in the 1980s including "So Macho", "Toy Boy", "Cross My Broken Heart" and "Right Back Where We Started From". She has also acted in a number of West End shows, been a mentor on The X Factor, and appeared as a contestant on the eleventh series of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!.

Early life

Early career

Sinitta began in show business by appearing in the musical The Wiz and the movie Shock Treatment released on Hallowe'en 1981, followed by starring in the West End musicals Cats, Little Shop of Horrors, Masquerade and Mutiny! On 24 December 1982, Sinitta appeared on the TV programme The Tube as a dancer with Imagination. She did not sing during this appearance.

In 1985, she captained one of the teams on a children's game show broadcast on ITV called The Wall Game.

Music career

Sinitta began recording in 1983, releasing her first single, "Break Me Into Little Pieces" with dance troupe, Hot Gossip. That same year, she also appeared in the video of "Rock the Boat" sung by Forrest. She continued to release singles throughout 1984 and 1985, and also participated in 1984's A Song for Europe, the UK heat of the Eurovision Song Contest, with the song "Imagination".

Success with Simon Cowell

Sinitta was both Simon Cowell's and Fanfare Records's first signing. Cowell had contacted record producer and song writer, George Hargreaves who in turn provided the song, "So Macho". However, Iain Burton changed his mind and called Cowell to advise that he was pulling the plug on Fanfare Records. Convinced that "So Macho" was destined to be a hit, Cowell persuaded Burton to give him £5,000 to release the record. The single was released in early 1986, but stalled around the lower reaches of the UK Top 50 singles chart. Determined to make Sinitta a hit, Cowell re-promoted the single, where it finally broke into the Top 10, hitting the Number 2 position and becoming one of the biggest hits of the year.

Stock Aitken Waterman influence

Around this time, Cowell was desperate for Stock Aitken Waterman (SAW) to write and produce for Sinitta. "Feels Like The First Time", Sinitta's subsequent single following "So Macho", had charted low (number 45 UK Oct 1986) and only spent five weeks on the chart, whereas, in contrast, "So Macho" had been on the UK chart for 30 weeks in 1986, where it had peaked at Number 2. Initially, Waterman declined to work with Sinitta, claiming that SAW were too busy. SAW did work with Sinitta later however, and her first single with the Hit Factory was "Toy Boy".

In his book, Cowell takes credit for the song idea for "Toy Boy", coining the phrase "toy boy", which described older women dating younger men. This is contradicted by writer/producer Mike Stock in his book, The Hit Factory - The Stock Aitken Waterman Story, in which he claims that his inspiration came from the fact that Sinitta herself at the time was dating a younger man. "Toy Boy" was a hit, reaching Number 4 in the UK in July 1987, staying on the charts for 14 weeks.

Sinitta went on to have a further five hit singles with PWL including "G.T.O." (#15, December 1987), "Cross My Broken Heart" (Number 6 - March 1988), "I Don't Believe In Miracles" (Number 22 - September 1988), "Right Back Where We Started From" (Number 4 - June 1989) and "Love on a Mountain Top" (Number 20 - October 1989).

Career decline

Following the release of her debut album Sinitta! in 1987, Sinitta moved away from working directly with Stock Aitken Waterman, although she continued to record at PWL under the direction of mixmasters Pete Hammond, Phil Harding and Ian Curnow. Her second album Wicked, released in 1989, contained only one SAW track - "I Don't Believe In Miracles" - the others being produced by the aforementioned Hammond, Harding & Curnow in addition to Nigel Wright and German producer Ralf Rene Maue.

As the 1990s opened, Sinitta proved less popular, with all her single releases between 1990 and 1993 failing to chart in the Top 20 of the UK chart: "Lay Me Down Easy" (Number 88 - December 1989), "Hitchin' a Ride" (Number 24 - April 1990), "Love and Affection" (Number 62 - September 1990), "Shame Shame Shame" (Number 28 - July 1992) and "The Supreme EP" (Number 49 - April 1993). "The Supreme EP" was the last chart single by Sinitta in the UK.

Sinitta's only studio album release of this period, Naughty Naughty (1995), was an album of pop covers and received a limited release in Asia. She appeared on the cast recording album for What a Feeling, which was a live recording taken from the Apollo Playhouse Theatre, Edinburgh in May 1997.
