Klappentext

1987. 20-year-old Nicki Chapman isn't meant to be walking through the seedy but sublime Soho streets towards MCA records; she is supposed to be living it up in the much sunnier climes of Australia. But fate, as it turns out, has much louder plans for her...

Everyone knows there were the kingmakers in the heady days of 90s and 00s British pop music. But this is the story of a queen - a down-to-earth, no-nonsense team player who fought to make it in an industry that was very much a man's world.

How did Nicki go from being a looked-over assistant to a judge on Pop Idol with 15 million viewers tuning in for the nail-biting moment Will Young triumphed over Gareth Gates?

Empowering and entertaining, Nicki's riveting behind-the-scenes story takes in the rocketing highs and heart-breaking lows of promoting, managing and touring with Prince, Amy Winehouse, David Bowie, Take That, Phil Collins, S Club 7, and the Spice Girls, and smashing through the glass ceiling whilst doing so.
