    Biography

    During her teenage years Lene developed an interest in performing and began her adult life as a barmaid and model.

    During the Aqua-days she had homes in both United States and Denmark.

    The relationship between Lene and Søren Rasted is rumored to be one of the many reasons Aqua disbanded in 2001.

    Lene married Søren on August 25, 2001. After the wedding, Lene moved to live permanently in Denmark. On November 6, 2004, she gave birth to a daughter, India. The couple welcomed their second child, a boy named Billy, in 2006.

    Musical career

    Aqua

    In 1994 Lene was spotted by René Dif singing on a cruise ship. He approached her and she became the lead vocalist for the group which was initially called Joyspeed, later re-named Aqua. The group consisted of Lene, René Dif, Søren Rasted and Claus Norreen. In their prime, Aqua managed to make the singles chart top ten in a number of countries where European pop acts would not normally succeed. She would remain with the group until 2001 when they split up due to personal differences, including a relationship between Lene and Søren Rasted. In October 2007, the band told the Danish newspaper Ekstra Bladet that they're coming back.

    Solo career

    In 2003 Lene released her first solo album, Play With Me, which performed poorly in Scandinavia, making only number 74 in the Norwegian charts. This lacklustre performance did not affect her single sales though. Initially Virgin Superstar was released to radio, followed by It's Your Duty (was given a full release) which peaked at number 3 in Denmark followed by 2004's Pretty Young Thing, another potential hit. In 2004 a vinyl promo of Here We Go was released to DJs and radio, a cd promo of Scream was also released in very a limited number as promotion. Lene is often mistaken for the British singer and TV presenter, Anna Kumble, who performed using the stage name "Lolly"

    Play With Me features Here We Go, a cover of a Moonbaby song, which Girls Aloud went on to again cover for their album What Will The Neighbours Say?. Her album track We Wanna Party has also been covered by Girls Aloud on their album Out of Control.

    Writer

    Lene then turned her hand to writing pop songs for other groups, writing No Good Advice and You Freak Me Out for Girls Aloud's first album Sound of the Underground. No Good Advice was a huge hit, and cemented Girls Aloud into mainstream pop, while You Freak Me Out went on to feature in the Disney movie Freaky Friday. Meanwhile, Pretty Young Thing was covered by Tina Cousins.
