Biography


Natalie and Nicole Appleton were born in 1973 and 1974 respectively to their British mother Mary and their Canadian father, Ken. They also have two elder sisters, Lori and Lee. Their parents divorced in the late 1970s, and the sisters switched frequently between their mother's native United Kingdom, Canada, and the United States. Both attended Ellenville High School in upstate New York. They stayed in Britain eventually, and became students at the Sylvia Young Theatre School in North London, which was to tutor their fellow All Saints colleague and Nic's schoolmate, Melanie Blatt as well as Denise van Outen, Emma Bunton, Letitia Dean and Samantha Janus.[2] The sisters were back in the UK in 1994, and, together with Shaznay Lewis, joined with former schoolmate Melanie Blatt to form All Saints.

In 2000, both sisters appeared in the poorly received film Honest, directed by ex-Eurythmics member Dave Stewart.[3] In 2001, All Saints disbanded.

Natalie and Nicole formed the band Appleton, and in September 2002, issued their first single "Fantasy", written with Andy Hayman and Gareth Young, which reached number 2 in the UK Singles Chart.[4] Their autobiography, Together, came out in October 2002.[5]The sisters releases stated that director David Slade announced he would direct the autobiographical book into a film, but that has yet to happen.

In 2003, they had two more hits with "Don't Worry" and "Everything Eventually" and the album, Everything's Eventual which went gold in the UK after just two months.[citation needed] They decided to sign a deal with Concept Music in late 2004 because of differences with their previous label, Polydor.

In 2004, Natalie appeared on I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!. In 2007, Nicole was a presenter on the UK reality show Hell's Kitchen.[6]

All Saints reformed in 2006; by then the Appleton enterprise had ceased.
