Special singer, part of a group
reporters always wanted the latest scoop
only 5 foot 2, she likes shiny suits
part of group's name
is this dashed on fruit.

Known for some outrageous things
left the toilet door aswing
handcuffed a nightclub owner to a tree...really
her earliest word remembered was 'actually'

Lives in England and prances down the King road
flashes for fun as onlookers goad.
stands for what she believes in, her imagination
hates people who conform, strives for liberation.

Besides she is born the same day as of my nieces

Ah geez, no decade to go by?  I thought I had an answer, I know what popped into my head, but then it popped out again, so I'm still thinking...

Then it is most certainly not the vintage singer I was thinking of...I shall have to give this more thought.

Martin darling boy I haven’t got a clue, late nineties, and something you put on fruit. Lives in England, and you’ll find her in the area of Queens Road? Does she shop at Harvey Nicks, are you more likely to see her in the West End or Covent Garden? I was thinking Claire Grogan, although she’s more late eighties than nineties one of the Mel’s B or C, my best guess though is Geri Halliwell.  

Excellent writing darling boy I love these little quizzes of yours they are all very well written. I love it utterly utterly

Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy

     
  

Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the eathquake wind and fire
Oh

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Well look how many guesses we have... lets see now, salt no..actually I put sugar on my grapefruit....I ran down the list and the winner is...the winner...ladies and gentleman I'm having trouble opening the envelope that reveals the missing identity...
the winner is a tie darkling and Marsha...it is Geri Halliwell also known as Ginger..

Now, ecrivan, my feelings are surely hurt...I didn't even receive honorable mention?  I was the first person to mention the name of the band, which was probably a nice help to the rest!  

Love your riddles...where's the next?
