Lene Nystrøm Rasted Totally Explained

Everything about Lene Nystr M totally explained

Lene (born Lene Grawford Nystrøm on 2 October 1973 in Tønsberg, Norway) is best known as the lead vocalist for pop-dance group Aqua.

Biography

During her teenage years Lene developed an interest in performing and began her adult life as a barmaid and model.
   During the Aqua-days she'd had homes in both Norway and Denmark.
   The relationship between Lene and Søren Rasted is rumored to be one of the many reasons Aqua disbanded in 2001. Originally Lene was dating Rene Dif. Then she dated Søren.
   Lene married Søren on August 25 2001. After the marriage Lene moved to live permanently in Denmark. On November 6 2004, she gave birth to daughter India. The couple welcomed their second child, a boy named Billy, in 2006.

Musical career

Aqua

In 1994 Lene was spotted by René Dif singing on a cruise ship. He approached her and she became the lead vocalist for the group which was initially called Joyspeed, later re-named Aqua. The group consisted of Lene, René Dif, Søren Rasted and Claus Norreen. In their prime, Aqua managed to make the singles chart top ten in a number of countries where European pop acts wouldn't normally succeed. She would remain with the group until 2001 when they split up due to personal differences, including a relationship between Lene and Søren Rasted. In October 2007, the band told the Danish newspaper Ekstra Bladet that they're coming back.

Solo career

In 2003 Lene released her first and only album, Play With Me, which performed poorly in Scandinavia, making only number 74 in the Norwegian charts. This lacklustre performance didn't affect her single sales though. "It's Your Duty" peaked at number 3 in Denmark followed by 2004's "Pretty Young Thing", another potential hit. Pretty Young Thing is a cover of Stella Soleil's song, and Here We Go is a cover of Moonbaby's song.

Writer

Lene then turned her hand to writing pop songs for other groups, writing "No Good Advice" and "You Freak Me Out" for Girls Aloud's first album Sound of the Underground. "No Good Advice" was a huge hit, and cemented Girls Aloud into mainstream pop, while "You Freak Me Out" went on to feature in the Disney movie Freaky Friday. Meanwhile, Pretty Young Thing was covered by Tina Cousins.
