THIS NOUGHTIES legend has proved she still knows how to bring the hits with a killer set at Boardmasters festival.
First shooting to fame in her early 20s, this now 47-year-old has become known for her unique voice, catchy chart-toppers and unique sense of style.

Touching down in Newquay, Cornwall, this weekend for the three day event, the singer took to the stage in an all-green outfit composed of a khaki-coloured halterneck with hotpants and furry green shawl.
Completing the look with a pair of white cowboy boots with silver flower adornments, this star looked every inch a Maneater as she took to the stage.
Have you guessed who it is yet? It’s Nelly Furtado!
The Canadian songstress is beloved for her singles including I’m Like a Bird, Say It Right, Maneater and Promiscuous.
She has two multi-platinum albums in the UK – Woah, Nelly and Loose – as well as two number one singles.
First launching her career with the legendary I’m Like A Bird, Nelly has become one of the defining performers of the early 2000s.
Appearing before Central Cee headlined the event, Nelly became a must-watch set as she gave it her all on stage, hiding her eyes behind tinted sunglasses and wearing her hair in a super long and slick ponytail.
Last year, she released her seventh studio album, aptly titled 7, which she worked closely on with her eldest child.
Since first topping the charts, Nelly has become a mother of three – a 21-year-old daughter Nevis with Jasper Gahunia, and a seven-year-old daughter and six-year-old son with rapper Hodgy.
“I’m lucky [Nevis] comes in the studio with me and helps me out as well,” she told the Call Her Daddy podcast in November last year.
“There’s nothing better than having that creative connection with your child and being able to work on something special together.”
She added: “It’s been a journey—one we’ve taken together. Just like working on it together and growing in the process: Me rediscovering my passion for music in the studio, and her kind of discovering her own passion for it.”
