Billie Paul Piper was born in Swindon, UK, on the 22nd of September 1982. Growing up with her brother Charlie and sisters Harley and Ellie, Billie knew early on that she wanted to be a performer. An ambitious Billie enrolled in the Sixth Sense theatre company in 1990, which gave her acting experience in several television commercials and an episode of The EastEnders. After a year of studies at Secondary School in her hometown, she was accepted into the Sylvia Young Theatre School in London. Despite her attendance at the prestigious school, Billie's busy schedule forced her to continue her education with a private tutor.

As a 15 year old school girl, Billie became the youngest female solo artist ever to debut at number one in the UK charts when the feisty 'Because We Want To' went straight to No.1 in the summer of '98. Three months later, she repeated the feat with the follow-up 'Girlfriend', a slower R&B-tingle tune which proved that this was one pop tot who could actually sing. In October '98, the platinum - selling album 'Honey To The B' took Billie career a step on and silenced the cynics who had said her success was sure to be short lived. In May of 2000, 2 years more mature and more experienced, Billie made her anticipated return to the music charts with the release of the single Day and Night, off of her sophomore album, Walk of Life.

Billie appeared in the television series Never Mind the Buzzcocks and Young Entertainers (as herself) in 1999, and appeared in Music Chronicles in 2000. After having appeared in small roles in movies such as The Leading Man and Evita in 1996, Billie hosted the television feature Billie Wants You!, in 1999. Although she has toured in the US, and has even performed for President Bill Clinton while on tour, Billie has yet to break through in America. But when she does, this princess will reign supreme.
