In a very fitting turn of events on Saturday Night, a massive 90s chart-topping singer known for her song of the name stunned crowds in two British cities. The iconic Whigfield , who ruled the air waves 30 years ago after her pop-tastic dance tune debuted at number one, was the star attraction at both Glasgow and Newcastle’s Pride events. And rocking bold pink extensions in her hair, it seemed like barely a couple of years had gone by for the 54-year-old Danish singer, songwriter and record producer – real name Sannie Charlotte Carlson – let alone 30.
Whigfield was the big act for both concerts, thanks to the colossal success of her debut single Saturday Night back in 1994. It saw the unknown come straight in at the top spot in the UK chart and knock off Wet Wet Wet’s Love Is All Around, which had been at number one for 15 straight weeks.
