Bextor eventually started a solo career and had much success in major label dance pop music.

Sophie Ellis-Bextor

Sophie Ellis-Bextor was born on April 10, 1979 in London, England. She is the daughter of Robin Bextor and former Blue Peter presenter Janet Ellis. As a young girl, she appeared on several Blue Peter items, with no indication given on-screen that she was Ellis's daughter. She attended St. Stephen's School and later Godolphin and Latymer School in Hammersmith. Among her earliest public performances were with the W11 Opera children's opera from the age of thirteen, and she is now a patron of the organisation. She is an English singer, songwriter, model and occasional DJ. She first came to prominence in the late 1990s, as the lead singer of the indie rock band Theaudience. After Theaudience split, Ellis-Bextor took a year off from singing. In 2000, Ellis-Bextor collaborated with Italian DJ Spiller on adding vocals to his then-instrumental club track "Groovejet", her first recorded work since that with Theaudience. "Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)" entered the UK charts at number one, just beating former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham on her first solo outing to the top spot. Since then, the two have been described as rivals. Both women deny, however, that there is any rivalry between the two of them.This is when Ellis-Bextor decides to go solo, achieving widespread success in the early 2000s. Her music is a mixture of mainstream pop, disco, nu-disco, and 1980s electronic influences.

Make a Scene is Sophie Ellis-Bextor's fourth and so far last studio album, released on April 18, 2011 in Russia and on June 6, 2011 in the U.K. Make a Scene originated from recording sessions for a Greatest Hits compilation set for release in the autumn of 2007.

Ellis-Bextor changed the album title back to Make a Scene in late 2010 and announced the final album title in a posting on her Facebook account in January 2011. The following singles have been taken from this album: Heartbreak (Make Me a Dancer) (#13 U.K.), Bittersweet (#25 U.K.), Can't Fight This Feeling (#13 France), Not Giving Up on Love (#125 U.K.), Off and On, and Starlight.
