After a brief hiatus, Clarkson, under her real name, returned as a songwriter in 1998 for pop acts like Girl Thing and Hear’Say,
including writing the smash hit 2000 single “Pure and Simple”. She later retired from writing songs for girl and boybands, and only
writes for a select few artists now, and in 2005, returned as a recording artist as a member of the duo WigWam. In 2007, she
made her return as Betty Boo on a collaboration track with electronic artist Jack Rokka. « hide |
