everything ABOUT SANDY
Sandy started her solo shortly after Vanessa's solo debut. Her first single was, "Unnatural Blonde". An allusion to the media's portrayal of her but also a clarification of her own persona.
Her single quickly went up to the top 10 charts. Her debut album stayed true to the No Angels genre pop and a flair of guitars sounds and inspiration from rnb. Her second single "Tell Me", as well as the debut album, "Unexpected" stayed on the top 10. Only the third single, also called "Unexpected", remained in the top 20. But of all the No Angels, Sandy was the only one who had success as a Solo Angel.
She also acted in her first german movie, "Solo Album" as Anastasia, when she was still with the No Angels. But she didn't let go of the acting, because Sandy is still involved in small American film projects, as well as in musicals. This allowed her to develop more to her singing skills.
Early 2006, she took part in an RTL dancing competition and danced the tango to waltz and reached the third place.
In 2004, she won awards as a solo artist. Maxim readers voted her as, "Woman of the Year". She received an Echo, (a german award) and came fourth in the "Eins live Krone" award.
Sandy was also a judge, in the fourth season of Popstars. At the time, she was named as one of the strictest. But the contestants were able to learn a lot from Sandy's experience as a popstar. In the fourth season, Nu Pagadi was founded. The first single was a hit, but because of problems in the band, the band ended.
Sandy took part in Stefan Raab's Bundesvision Song Contest. (A similar format like "Eurovision Song Contest"). But before she competed, she was informed that her stepfather died of sepsis. This hit her, as she had a strong bond with her father. Nevertheless, she swallowed her tears and sang, "Unexpected" with Manuellsen for Rhineland-Pfalz. They weren't able to score with the song and remained in last place.
In the past 2006 had been Sandy very busy and sang the theme songs for the German Disney's version's of, Bambi 2 and The Sleeping beauty. They are both available on the DVD. She had also started working on the second album. It was to be released in 2006, which is why the No Angels project had to wait.
"Crash", was her next single from the album "Frame Of Mind". This album was very edgy and rocky. In this album Sandy had learned to get more out of her safe pop voice. With her own cover of The Primitive's, "Crash". Sandy did not had the same success as before. Likewise did the album, which reached number 53. She was still seen on The Dome, where only the biggest artists performed. And on the german TV "Fernsehgarten" and on the "Ultimative Chart Show". She also slowly shown her skills as a show host and has appeared on "Autsch TV", "Just the Best - Der große Musiktest" and "Sketch for Fun". But that was not all. Sandy had been active in sport and was successful at the "WOK World Championships" as well as in "Fort Boyard", "Ninja Warrior Germany" and other shows.
Her songs were mostly covered. The most famous one was "One In A Million", of the "Unexpected" era. This was covered by Miley Cyrus, than known as Hannah Montana.
