  Kim Wilde - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kim was born in Chiswick, West London as the first child of 1950s rock 'n' roller Marty Wilde (real name Reginald Smith) and Joyce Baker, formerly of the British singing and dancing group the Vernons Girls.
Kim later commented that, at that time in the industry, it was passe for a female to attempt to launch a serious career in pop music on her own, and that the backing band had been shown on the sleeve to give credibility to the album.
Kim, who was ill at the time, could not promote the song and it subsequently became the only single she released not to chart in the top 75, despite a prediction by the ITV Chart Show programme of a No.25 entry in that week's chart.

Kim Wilde was born Kim Smith in Chiswick, West London, on November 18th 1960.
The foundation for Kim's musical career was laid in her own family: her father Marty Wilde was a 50s rock 'n' roll star and her mother Joyce used to sing in a band Vernon Girls.
Another surprise for Kim Wilde fans, probably more exiting than her new performances, was that the new compilation "The Very Best Of Kim Wilde", released by EMI in November 2001, contained a new song which Kim recorded earlier that year.

Kim Wilde (born Kim Smith) was born in Chiswick, West London, on November 18th, 1960.
The foundation for Kim's musical career was laid in her own family: her father Marty Wilde was a 60s rock 'n roll star and her mother Joice Baker was a singer as well.
In 1980, when Kim was nineteen, her father Marty had booked a studio to record a Country and Western album, which has always been one of his ambitions.

 TrouserPress.com :: Kim Wilde
Daughter of pre-Beatles British teen idol Marty Wilde and sister of auteur Ricky (aka Ricki) Wilde, the pouty, adorable Kim Wilde turned out to be a reasonably talented pop singer herself.
A bit older than she looked — she was 20 when her debut (and enduring international claim to fame) single, "Kids in America," hit the charts — she benefited greatly from a combination of nubile sex appeal, new wave pep and her family's commercial savvy (not to mention connections).
Kim slips two of her own compositions (frustrated, lonely, glum; "Fit In" sounds like Laura Nyro) into the otherwise upbeat nonsense fed her by her family.

 Kim Wilde Picture Galleries
The daughter of 50s pop idol Marty Wilde and Vernons Girls' vocalist Joyce Smith (née Baker), Kim was signed to Mickie Most's Rak Records in 1980 after the producer heard a demo Kim recorded with her brother Ricky.
Weary of her image as the girl-next-door, Wilde subsequently sought a sexier profile, which was used in the video to promote "Say You Really Want Me".
In 1999, Wilde put her recording career behind her to present a series of television gardening programmes, but two years later was part of a nostalgic 80s package tour.

 Kim Wilde: Nostalgia
Music came naturally for Kim Wilde: Her father Marty was an English rock star during the 50’s and her brother Ricky was a producer for England’s RAK Records.
Kim Wilde remained a big recording star in Europe throughout the 1990’s, scoring equally well with both dance music and mellower adult-contemporary tunes.
Just the same, Kim Wilde will be fondly remembered by pop fans around the world for the legacy of sleek and stylish pop music she left behind.

 the biography of Kim Wilde - singer life story
In 1980, Kim Wilde signed with producer Mickie Most's Rak Records, releasing her first single, "Kids in America," early in 1981.
However, Wilde wasn't able to keep her momentum going and it wasn't until late 1986 that she had another hit with a dance cover of the Supremes' "You Keep Me Hangin' On," which charted in the Top Ten on both sides of the Atlantic.
Wilde never had another hit in America, yet she was back in the charts in the summer of 1987 with "Another Step (Closer to You)," a duet with Junior Giscombe.

When challenged by one of her earnest readers on the frustration of green as a rather dull colour, Wilde is quite blunt in her column.
