Myleene Klass
Myleene Angela Klass MBE (born 6 April 1978) is a British musician, singer, television presenter, model, writer and designer. She was a member of the pop group Hear'Say, and later released two solo classical crossover albums in 2003 and 2007. Klass then went into television and radio presenting, hosting series including Popstar to Operastar (2010–2011) and BBQ Champ (2015) on ITV and The One Show (2007) on BBC One. She was a regular panellist on the ITV lunchtime chat show Loose Women in 2014 and again from 2024 onwards. In 2006, Klass was runner-up on the sixth series of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!, and returned in 2023 for the "all-stars" series I'm a Celebrity... South Africa, which she won.
Myleene Angela Klass[citation needed] was born on 6 April 1978 in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, to an Austrian father and a Filipino mother.
She attended Notre Dame High School, Norwich, but transferred to the closer Cliff Park High School in the Gorleston-on-Sea area of Great Yarmouth, to complete her secondary education.
Klass learned to play violin and piano as a child, and at the age of 15 she went to weekend studies at the Junior Department of the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, where she studied voice and harp. She gained A grades at A-Level, including music. She subsequently took a course at the Royal Academy of Music, University of London. At the age of 11, she won a school engineering contest, with a prize presented by Carol Vorderman.
After graduating, Klass spent a short period as part of a reality show for Bravo, called The Dolls' House. She sang backing vocals for Cliff Richard, with whom she had previously worked at age 10 when she sang in a choir featured in his 1988 single "Mistletoe and Wine", which was that year's Christmas number one on the UK singles chart, and made her West End theatre debut in Miss Saigon.
Early television work came in 1998, when Klass sang soprano for the music of the Channel 4 film Alice through the Looking Glass.
In 2001, Klass auditioned for the ITV reality show Popstars, which offered contestants an opportunity to become part of a newly formed pop band. Klass was chosen as one of the ten finalists and became a member of Hear'Say, with Kym Marsh, Suzanne Shaw, Danny Foster and Noel Sullivan.[citation needed] Following the success of their first album, the band was given its own TV show entitled Hear'Say It's Saturday. During the show's run, the band had a chance to perform with such established artists as Lionel Richie, Celine Dion, Bradley Walsh, Blue and Atomic Kitten.[citation needed] At the end of 2001, Hear'Say appeared on the Royal Variety Performance.[citation needed]
The group undertook a 37-date sold-out arena tour and performed numerous television guest appearances. Klass made many appearances with Hear'Say on TV and in live performances during 2002. The pop act's many promotional appearances during the year were also broadcast as part of their own TV shows, entitled Hear'Say: A New Chapter in Full and The Hear'Say Story. In total, Hear'Say had four Top 10 singles including two number-ones in the British charts, before splitting up after a reported long-term feud between Klass and Marsh. The feud resulted in Marsh leaving the band in December 2001, to be replaced by Johnny Shentall in 2002. The band split up in October of that year.
