90s indie star unrecognisable 26 years after band’s hit song and quitting fame for normal job

AT the turn of 2000, this girl group were being billed as the new B*Witched, storming the charts with their track, I Quit.
Their star appeared to be on the rise, with the four-piece girl band even landing a spot on the soundtrack of Buffy The Vampire Slayer.



However, after just one album, the band went their separate ways, but lead singer Jamie Benson is still focused on music 26 years later.
Now Jamie Benson Hosier, the lead singer has landed a spot teaching at Laine Theatre Arts’ Junior Department – the same music school she learned her craft in.
It was while at Laine Theatre Arts that Jamie met bandmate Lisa Lister, setting into motion the band that would become Hepburn in 1997.
The band was completed by Beverly Fullen on drums, and Sarah Davies on bass.
Named after Audrey Hepburn, the band were signed to Columbia Records, releasing I Quit in 1999 – a song originally meant for Natalie Imbruglia.
In America, the band filmed a music video inspired by Buffy, performing in the local haunt The Bronze with clips featuring in their video.
It’s rumoured they were meant to appear on the show, but it never came to fruition.
However, the band ran into trouble when drummer Beverly Fullen left the group in September 1999, and was then replaced twice.
By 2000, the group were dropped from their label after just one album, and decided to disband.
Jamie went on to release her own material to limited success, before switching gears and teaching.
She joined Laine Theatre Arts as part of the staff in December 2024.
Jamie is now married to Danny Hosier, a dancer who previously performed with Kylie Minogue, and who she met at the age of 16 when she first attended the school.
Together, they have three children.


Jessie J secretly teams up with Adele’s favourite songwriter for first album in seven years
JESSIE J is preparing to make her comeback after teaming up with Adele’s favourite songwriting partner Ryan Tedder, I can exclusively reveal.
It’s been seven years since the Bang Bang singer last dropped an album.



But an insider said: “Jessie has recorded a string of new songs and has her fifth album ready to go.
“She’s been through some seismic changes in her life over the past couple of years, most notably becoming a mum, and it’s inspired her to get back into the studio.
“Jessie spent time writing with Ryan, who wrote her song I Want Love, and they’ve come up with some amazing new tunes.
“It has been a long time coming but the timing had to be right.
“She didn’t want to keep churning out record after record, and wanted it to feel authentic and real.
“Jessie couldn’t be more excited to share what she has been working on with her fans and she will be announcing her first song in the spring.”
Jessie’s last album, R.O.S.E, was released in four parts in 2018 but failed to have the impact the ex-Voice UK coach had hoped for.
In 2023, she split from Republic Records after 17 years and told fans she was looking for a fresh start.
Becoming a mum to son Sky was also a driving force.
She said at the time: “There’s no negative spin, nothing’s happened, it’s not dramatic.
“It’s just me literally saying, ‘This doesn’t feel right’ and it hasn’t for years.”
My insider has heard a few snippets of her upcoming single and says that she is sounding better than ever.
Jessie, we’re so pleased to have you back.
Grande plan for movies


Ariana Grande looked Wicked in pink as she joined fellow former child star Selena Gomez at a movie bash.
They were both honoured at the Virtuosos Award gala as part of the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, after Ariana revealed she is hoping to stick around on screen.
She is nominated for Supporting Actress at the Oscars for her turn as Glinda in Wicked, and is hoping to get another role after the sequel Wicked: For Good comes out in November.
The Positions singer said: “I would love to exist in this space for a while longer.
“I love finding characters that make people feel seen and human. I’d love to continue on this road.”
Meanwhile, Selena spoke out at the festival after her Emilia Perez co-star Karla Sofia Gascon was criticised when a raft of hate-filled historic tweets surfaced.
Admitting it has tarnished her awards experience, Selena said: “Some of the magic has disappeared.
“But I choose to continue to be proud of what I’ve done, and I’m just grateful and live with no regrets.”
“I would do this movie over and over again if I could.”
Becks $1bn fakes win

Posh and Becks will be cracking open a bottle of their favourite Chateau Mouton Rothschild this week after David won his $1billion lawsuit against counterfeiters ripping off his name.
I revealed last May his firm DB Ventures, which looks after the former footballer’s big-money deals, had launched two lawsuits in the US.
It was to clamp down on nearly 500 vendors who were flogging fakes of his gear.
The cases were aimed at counterfeiters selling knock-off clothes, watches, perfume, sunglasses, video games, toys, footballs and sports gear via sites including Amazon, eBay, Etsy, Temu and Walmart.
Now a judge in the States has ordered that every penny the sites have made from dodgy goods be transferred back to his business.
There is also now a permanent injunction in place to stop anyone from making money on copycat products.
Becks, described as a “fashion icon” in the paperwork, will now have the cash transferred back to DB Ventures, which is backed by its rights management firm Authentic Brands Group.
It’s a massive victory for Becks, who also won a £240million case against counterfeiters last year.
An insider told me: “Authentic Brands want to stamp out this issue and stop people from selling fakes of David’s products.
“They pride themselves on the quality of their products and people are being ripped off without their knowledge.”
Ecko sound so promising

If Kasabian and Oasis had a baby, you’d end up with Ecko.
They are a rock band from Ayrshire who also have a flavour of Arctic Monkeys – and I’m hooked.
Bizarre reader David Adams, who describes himself as a persistent NHS nurse, sent me a link to their new track Play Pretend and urged me to take a listen.
And I wasn’t disappointed, with big things to come for this as-yet-unsigned Scottish four-piece.
Frontman Jamie Warden has all the swagger of Kasabian’s Serge Pizzorno and backs it up with killer vocals, alongside bandmates Matthew Welsh on guitar, drummer Jonny Armstrong and bassist Liam O’Connor.
I’ve had Let Go on repeat since David told me about them, so give them a listen as soon as you get a chance.
Alex Spencer is also a name to watch.
The Mancunian rising star has a new single, Wake Me Up, following the release last year of his EP There’s Gotta Be More.
Alex will play the Camden Assembly in London on April 10.
Kendrick Lamar and Sza are bringing their joint headline tour to the UK.
It starts in the US in April and will come to stadiums and parks in Glasgow, Birmingham, Cardiff and London in July, having both previously played dates at The O2 Arena separately.
Paul’s a big hit in West End

Paul Mescal crashed his bike into an Uber cab after a West End performance.
He had been on stage at the Noel Coward Theatre in London in A Streetcar Named Desire, and was seemingly heading home at 3am when it happened.
Paul appeared to be unscathed, but unbeknown to him, Aussie influencer duo Bel & Em were in the Uber and recounted the story on TikTok.
They said: “This is why you should just always go out.
“Paul Mescal rode his Lime bike into our Uber.
“That’s not a joke.
“I said, ‘Hi Paul!’.”
They added: “At 3am no less, there was a big thud in the back of our Uber and our driver yelled at him.
“We were like, ‘Don’t worry Paul’.”
In their video, they shared a snippet where the Gladiator II actor said: “If there’s damage, I’ll happily pay whatever.”
Tom Jones will headline Camp Bestival alongside Sugababes and Basement Jaxx.
The Zutons, Annie Mac and the Lightning Seeds are also booked to play the four-day festival at Dorset’s Lulworth Castle, which runs from July 31 to August 3.
Letter of the law for Rob

Robbie Williams’ Better Man biopic has ruffled more feathers.
Rob took a deep dive through his rise to the top, with him changing the script for Gary Barlow, after the Take That frontman said he came off “worse than Darth Vader in Star Wars”.
But Take That’s former manager Nigel Martin-Smith was twitching about the prospect of the film.
He apparently had a letter sent to Rob’s team to remind him of the settlement following their legal row in 2007, when Rob, above, had to apologise for suggesting Nigel ripped off Take That on his song The 90s.
There is clearly a lot of water under this bridge and it’s always going to be murky.
As Rob said in an open letter to Nigel in November: “Even though I find you hard to like, I don’t hate you.”
Beyoncé has announced two more shows at London’s Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, before the first four have even gone on sale.
She was already due to perform there on June 5, 7, 10 and 12, but has also now confirmed June 14 and 16.
Pre-sale for the original dates starts today, but general release for the shows will be from noon on Friday.
Sabrina all set for Brits night

I told last month how Sabrina Carpenter was set to perform at the Brit Awards – and now the cat is formally out of the bag.
The US singer has been confirmed as a guest for the biggest night in British music, where she will sing live and receive the Global Success award.
Sabrina will fly over for the show on March 1 at London’s O2 Arena before kicking off the European leg of her Short N’ Sweet tour in Dublin two nights later.
She joins a list of artists including Ed Sheeran, Adele and One Direction to have won the award, although most notably, she’s the first non-Brit to get it.
That sort of defeats the point of a night celebrating British talent, but hey-ho.

Biggest skincare trends for 2025
Face The Future’s Head of Clinic, Kimberley Medd, shared the five skincare trends predicted to take off in 2025.
1. Exosomes
Exosomes are the buzzword for 2025, taking advanced skin regeneration to new heights. These micro-messengers signal skin cells to repair damage, boost collagen, and accelerate recovery, and they’re a gamechanger for targeting ageing.
2. Streamlined Skincare
The age of 12-step routines is fading as consumers shift to more intentional, multi-functional products. Streamlining skincare not only saves time but also reduces the risk of overloading your skin. In 2025, we’ll see a rise in hybrid products that combine active ingredients for simplified, effective results.
3. Vegan Collagen
Plant-based collagen will dominate the skincare world this year, providing a sustainable, ethical alternative to traditional animal-derived collagen. Expect vegan collagen in everything from moisturisers to serums.
4. The Rise Of AI
AI is revolutionising the beauty landscape, making it possible for consumers to get truly personalised skincare solutions. In 2025, we predict a dramatic shift towards AI-powered tools that help people understand their skin on a deeper level.
5. Hair Loss Solutions –
Hair loss is an issue that affects more men than we often realise, and it’s no longer just something we’re talking about behind closed doors. This year, expect to see a continued rise in demand for treatments that not only tackle hair loss but also nurture overall scalp health.

Linda Robson shares heartbreaking Pauline Quirke update and reveals TV tribute plans after star’s dementia diagnosis
LINDA Robson has shared a heartbreaking update on close friend Pauline Quirke after it was revealed she has been living with dementia for three years.
Last month actress Pauline‘s husband Steve Sheen revealed she would be stepping back from her 50-year career due to the syndrome.



Now Linda, 66, has revealed the sad reality of the struggles Pauline’s loved ones are facing.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun at the TV Choice Awards, the Loose Women panellist said: “It’s very sad. We’ve been best friends since we were ten. I’ve known [about the diagnosis] for three years.
“She doesn’t know who anybody is.
“She doesn’t know who I am or who her kids are. Dementia is terrible – I’d rather get cancer, because at least then you’ve got a chance.”
And Linda insisted that she’ll never do another episode of Birds of a Feather as it wouldn’t be the same without Pauline.
They starred together in Birds of a Feather as Sharon Theodopolopodous and Tracey Stubbs.
The sitcom ran on the BBC and then ITV across nearly 30 years.
But Linda revealed she would like to do a TV tribute to her friend. She said: “I wouldn’t do it without Pauline.
“It wouldn’t be the same without her. I would be up for some kind of tribute to celebrate her.”
Linda also teased she’s working on something with Lesley Joseph – who also starred in Birds of a Feather as Dorien Green.
Refusing to give away too much, she simply said: “There’s something in the pipeline.”
After the news of Pauline’s diagnosis was revealed last month, Linda took to Instagram to share her heartbreak.
She wrote: “For the past three years, I’ve been in close contact with her husband, Steve, and have spent time with Pauline.
“It breaks my heart to see her endure such a terrible illness.”
Is it ageing or dementia?

Dementia – the most common form of which is Alzheimer’s – comes on slowly over time.
As the disease progresses, symptoms can become more severe.
But at the beginning, the symptoms can be subtle or mistaken for normal memory issues related to ageing.
The US National Institute on Aging gives some examples of what is considered normal forgetfulness in old age, and dementia disease.
You can refer to these above.
For example, it is normal for an ageing person to forget which word to use from time-to-time, but difficulting having conversation would be more indicative of dementia.
Katie Puckering, Head of Alzheimer’s Research UK’s Information Services team, previously told The Sun: “We quite commonly as humans put our car keys somewhere out of the ordinary and it takes longer for us to find them.
“As you get older, it takes longer for you to recall, or you really have to think; What was I doing? Where was I? What distracted me? Was it that I had to let the dog out? And then you find the keys by the back door.
“That process of retrieving the information is just a bit slower in people as they age.
“In dementia, someone may not be able to recall that information and what they did when they came into the house.
“What may also happen is they might put it somewhere it really doesn’t belong. For example, rather than putting the milk back in the fridge, they put the kettle in the fridge.”
‘I’m not ready’ – Tiger Woods pulls out of Genesis Invitational as he’s ‘still processing’ shock death of his mum
TIGER WOODS has pulled out of the Genesis Invitational event as he continues to grieve the passing of his mother.
The golf legend’s mum, Kultida, died at the age of 81, with Woods breaking the tragic news on social media last week.


The 49-year-old had been due to compete in the Genesis Invitational in Southern California, USA, later this week.
However, on Monday evening he announced he was “not ready” to return to action after the death of his “dear mother”.
In a statement released on social media, he said: “I planned to tee it up this week, but I’m just not ready.
“I did my best to prepare, knowing it’s what my Mom would have wanted, but I’m still processing her loss.
“Thanks to everyone who has reached out.
“I hope to be at Torrey later in the week and appreciate the continued kindness since my Mom’s passing.”
Woods’ tribute to his late mother saw him name her his “biggest fan”.
He said: “It is with heartfelt sadness that I want to share that my dear mother, Kultida Woods, passed away early this morning.
“My Mom was a force of nature all her own, her spirit was simply undeniable. She was quick with the needle and a laugh.
“She was my biggest fan, greatest supporter, without her none of my personal achievements would have been possible.
“She was loved by so many, but especially by her two grandchildren, Sam and Charlie.
“Thank you all for your support, prayers and privacy at this difficult time for me and my family. Love you Mom.”
Woods’ mother Kultida was originally from Thailand and met his late father Earl, a retired US Army officer, in 1968 when he was on a tour of duty in the country.
They ended up settling in Cypress, California. And Woods, who was their only child, was born there in December 1975.
He has won 15 Major golf titles, including the Masters five times, putting him three behind Jack Nicklaus’ tally of 18.
Kultida was a regular at Woods’ matches and was most recently at his TGL clash in Florida on January 14.
Woods paid tribute to her in June last year when he received the Bob Jones award for his contribution to golf.
Woods said at the time: “My mom doesn’t get enough credit.
“Everyone thought that it was my dad when I went on the road, which it was.
“But mom was at home. If you don’t know, mom has been there my entire life.
“This award, I accept it in humbleness and just unbelievable regard for the past recipients but I also accept it for my mom too.
“She allowed me to get here. She allowed me to do these things, chase my dreams, and the support and love — I didn’t do this alone.
“I had the greatest rock that any child could possibly have: my mom. Thank you, mom.”

Horror as teacher, 40, stabs to death eight-year-old girl in frenzied attack in South Korea school
A TEACHER has allegedly stabbed an eight-year-old student to death at a school in South Korea.
The female teacher, in her 40s, confessed to the frenzied attack after cops found her and the young girl inside the Daejeon elementary school on Monday evening, say local authorities.


The girl was discovered by police on the second floor of the school after her parents reported her missing.
She had stab wounds to her neck and face, a local fire department official told Reuters.
The student was rushed to hospital “in an unconscious state” and tragically died a short time later.
The teacher also had stab wounds on her neck and arm with officials now investigating if they may have been self-inflicted, local media added.
She reportedly underwent surgery on her injuries and is due to be questioned by police when she regains her health.
As cops continue to look into the alleged fatal assault it has been revealed that the girl was at an after-school child care session.
She was also due to attend a private art class shortly before being targeted, local media reports.
Both the teacher and the girl were found by police at around 6pm.
Cops were first notified by the child’s parents who reported her missing from the art class.
Police found the teacher had taken a leave of absence due to depression and had only returned to the school late last year, reports the Yonhap news agency.
In August 2023, a high school teacher was also reportedly attacked with a knife in Daejeon, around 87 miles south of capital Seoul.
That same week, an attacker went on a frenzied stabbing spree at a shopping centre in South Korea leaving one person dead and thirteen injured.
Chilling footage shows the blade-wielding suspect launching an attack at the AK Plaza in the city of Seongnam right after he rammed his car into pedestrians outside the building.
