Product Description

Product Description

The story of two sisters who landed on Planet Pop and how they survived thanks to each other. Since they first hit the charts in 1997 with the "All Saints", the Appletons have lived, loved and squabbled in the full glare of the tabloids. In this biography they tell of their struggles and successes - the amazing highs of stardom and its dangerous lows. How, despite making records that topped the charts and had the critics cheering, there were tensions in the group from the start, and how the music industry - obsessed with image and control - would put extraordinary pressure on the girls and their loved ones. They talk about the people in their lives, including Robbie Williams, Jamie Theakston and Liam Gallagher. And they explain the unique bonds of love and sisterhood that have kept them together.


About the Author

Nicole and Natalie Appleton are members of the All Saints, who have sold over 6 million albums worldwide. In January 2001, amid rumour and speculation, the group decided to put everything on hold - but Nicole and Natalie have a deal with record giant Warner Brothers, and are back in the recording studio together.

5.0 out of 5 stars Breathtaking, 3 Aug 2004
Bring a massive fan of All Saints, i always found Nic and Nat interesting, mainly because they were alays the two members that never really did much with the group; after reading this fantastic autobiography, i now know why.

It tells the story of there childhood, there rise to fame and the truth behind All Saints and the famous split. After reading it, i have so little respect for Shaznay and Melanie - it shows how fame can go to some peoples head.

Just absolutely fantastic - i also found there album to be the best album i have bought in the past few years and if you havent seen there Documentry, watch that aswell (Appleton on Appleton). Alot of the aspects of the book are also in this doco!

3.0 out of 5 stars For die-hard All Saints/Appleton fans only, 3 Dec 2002
By A Customer
As a big All Saints fan, I was looking forward to read this book, even though I had doubts about its relevance. After all, both sisters are not even 30, which means this autobiography comes out quite at an early stage in their lives/career. Unfortunately, it shows.

Indeed at least 1/3 of the book is filled with trivial details like detailed descriptions of clothes, drinking habits or their (famous) boyfriend's favorite meals and hobbies. I was expecting to read about their favorite color at some point. If you're into gossip/celebrity oriented magazines, you'll probably enjoy reading about these kind of details. However if you're expecting more deep thoughts or stories on their career as members of one of the most famous girl bands of the late 90s - like I was - you'll be disappointed. Same thing with the constant name-dropping throughout the book: it makes the whole content even more superficial.

Of course if you're an All Saints fan, you'll find very interesting the Appletons's insight on All Saints' highs and lows. By far the best parts of the book, because we finally feel like we're learning something new about the sisters, the band, the industry. Unfortunately, this is not the book's main focus.

Also, as a fan who followed the band's career since the beginning, I actually noticed a few obvious mistakes in the dates and events, which is somewhat disturbing given that the book was written by the girls themselves. Accuracy definitely wasn't a major concern to them.

All this to say that I would recommend 'Together' to die-hard fans or people interested in light-hearted celebrity stories only. Otherwise, you may wanna ask for a refund...

4.0 out of 5 stars Juicy apple of a read, 5 Oct 2002
Fascinated by Popstars? Love pop? You'll will like this book. The Appleton sisters describe the long road to the fame, the training and the fallouts. You get to see the kind of hard work they had to put in to get All Saints off the ground, the Appletons seem to have been the driving force. Im suprised the girls were so honest, Nicole revealing her abortion when she REALLY didn't have to - I think she wanted revenge on those who forced her - by revealing them. The two wild sisters of pop rock have another hit with this book.
