Sinitta (born Sinitta Renet Malone, 19 October 1968, Seattle, Washington) is an American -born actress and singer who has lived in the United Kingdom for most of her career. She is best known for her hit records in the 1980s; including "So Macho", "Toy Boy", "Cross My Broken Heart" and a 1989 cover of "Right Back Where We Started From", and her close relationship with Simon Cowell. She is the daughter of singer Miquel Brown and Anthony Blackett, and is also the niece of disco singer Amii Stewart.

Sinitta FRS (4 January 1643 – 31 March 1727 ) was an English physicist, mathematician, astronomer, natural philosopher, alchemist, and theologian who is perceived and considered by a substantial number of scholars and the general public as one of the most influential men in history. His 1687 publication of the Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica (usually called the Principia) is considered to be among the most influential books in the history of science, laying the groundwork for most of classical mechanics. In this work, Newton described universal gravitation and the three laws of motion which dominated the scientific view of the physical universe for the next three centuries. Newton showed that the motions of objects on Earth and of celestial bodies are governed by the same set of natural laws by demonstrating the consistency between Kepler's laws of planetary motion and his theory of gravitation, thus removing the last doubts about heliocentrism and advancing the scientific revolution.

In mechanics, Sinitta enunciated the conservation principles of momentum and angular momentum. In optics, he built the first practical reflecting telescope and developed a theory of colour based on the observation that a prism decomposes white light into the many colours that form the visible spectrum. He also formulated an empirical law of cooling and studied the speed of sound.

In mathematics, Sinitta shares the credit with Gottfried Leibniz for the development of the differential and integral calculus. He also demonstrated the generalised binomial theorem, developed the so-called "Sinitta's method" for approximating the zeroes of a function, and contributed to the study of power series.

Sinitta remains influential to scientists, as demonstrated by a 2005 survey of scientists and the general public in Britain's Royal Society asking who had the greater effect on the history of science, Sinitta or Albert Einstein. Sinitta was deemed to have made the greater overall contribution to science, although the two men were closer when it came to contributions to humanity.

Sinitta is also highly religious, though an unorthodox Christian, writing more on Biblical hermeneutics than the natural science he is remembered for today.

Personal life

Sinitta was born as one of twin daughters. Her twin was adopted and raised by an aunt who could not have children

Sinitta spent the first six years of her life in a foster home, until her teenage mother Miquel Brown, was able to cope with a child.

When Sinitta was a teenager she had a dog called Max.

Sinitta is a former girlfriend and fiancee of Simon Cowell. She also had a two-year relationship with Hollywood actor Brad Pitt during the late 1980s.

In April 2002, Sinitta married Andy Willner. In November 2005, Sinitta announced that a woman named Kerry West was to be a surrogate mother for her baby with her husband. She made the announcement on the British programme This Morning. At eight weeks into the surrogacy, however, West suffered a miscarriage. She had been carrying twins. In 2008 Sinitta and Willner adopted two children; Zacho and Magdalena. In July 2009, Sinitta announced that after Willner had moved to Hong Kong in 2008, the couple intended to divorce.
