Dreams really do come true. It is a huge thrill to present our exclusive interview with the multi-talented Shirlie (Holliman) Kemp. Shirlie Holliman rose to fame in the early 80s as a back-up singer and dancer for Wham! When Wham! split in , she and fellow Wham!ette, Pepsi, started their own group, aptly known as Pepsi and Shirlie. She also married actor/singer Martin Kemp and became a mother of two, Harley and Roman.

George not only dialled the phone for Shirlie to speak to Martin for the first time, but he also accompanied a very shy Shirlie on her first date with the Spandau Ballet bass player.
