Early life
Stevens was born in Southgate, London of Jewish heritage.She attended Ashmole School in Southgate, London.
From a very early age, Stevens was drawn to entertaining people. At the age of five she began taking acting lessons at a drama school near London, but as time went on she seemed to be more interested in fashion than acting. At the age of fifteen her first big break when she beat out 5000 competitors in a modelling competition sponsored by Just 17 Magazine. Following her first modelling jobs Stevens attended the London School of Fashion and after graduation worked in fashion PR, but began to lose interest and started to seek out a career in music instead.
Then, at the age of twenty, Stevens accompanied her brother to an audition in London for a new group, which was being put together by Simon Fuller, the one-time manager of the Spice Girls. While waiting for her brother to audition, she was approached by the judges. After many calls and auditions she was chosen as a member of the new band S Club 7, along with Jo O'Meara, Hannah Spearritt, Bradley McIntosh, Jon Lee, Paul Cattermole and Tina Barrett.
S Club 7
Stevens and "S Club 7" quickly rose to fame, with their debut single "Bring It All Back" reaching number one June 1999. The groups follow-up, "S Club Party" was also a hit, the groups self-titled debut album also sold well. The band also had their own TV show, success in the United States. Stevens probably enjoyed more success than the rest of the band members, as she was singing most of the group's lead vocals (with band mate Jo O'Meara), received the most media attention and was a fan favourite. Stevens was voted the sexiest woman on the planet by the men's magazine FHM.
After a Hit TV Show, Hit Singles, Tree sold out Tours and there own Movie (Seeing Double) the members of "S Club 7" commenced to break up.
Solo career
After "S Club 7" broke up, Stevens signed up with Polydor Records and re-signed with "S Club 7" manager, Simon Fuller. Stevens said "I think we ended up conforming to what people's perceptions was," "This one was the actor, this one was the singer, this one was the dancer. And to come out of that and be a whole person has been a real challenge for me. I didn't have my say, really, in the group. None of us did."Stevens first release “Sweet Dreams My L.A Ex” was a success. Stevens' debut solo album, Funky Dory was released later that month. The album was a hit.
In July 2004, Stevens released a brand new single, "Some Girls". The single became a hit across Europe. All profits from the single went to the BBC Sport Relief charity. On its release HMV.co.uk called the single Stevens' "finest song to date", and Yahoo! Launch commented "She ended up saving pop and made it better!"
