Fame is a Swedish duo consisting of Jessica Andersson, (1973?) and Magnus Bäcklund, (Linköping, 1965). Music has been a huge part of their adult lives, but six months ago they were completely unknown in Sweden. They met each other at the televised arts school and contest Fame Factory, which aired in autumn 2002. Bäcklund was the overall winner, while Andersson dropped out to give birth to her son Liam. Bäcklund also has two young twin daughters at home.
Andersson is a former photo model and Bäcklund is a commercial pilot. They share Stevie Wonder as their role model. Fame won the favour of the Swedish public and the jury with "Give Me Your Love" in a landslide victory in Melodifestivalen at the Stockholm Globe Arena. Therefore they could represent Sweden in the Eurovision Song Contest 2003 and reached a top-5 position.
Boy Band singer Lance Bass breaks his silence on his relationship with "Amazing Race" winner Reichen Lehmkuhl.
Bass says that he's involved with Reichen Lehmkuhl and reportedly says that he kept his sexuality a secret mostly out of concern that it would hurt the boy band.
