It was certified internationally with seven platinum and three gold certifications, including the triple-Platinum by the British Phonographic Industry, selling over 4 million copies worldwide, and becoming the best selling solo album of any Spice Girls member.[7][8]
After her second album, Gold certified in UK, Reason, with more than 500,000 copies, Chisholm, in 2004, parted from Virgin and founded her own record company, Red Girl Records. Beautiful Intentions, her third album, in 2005, spent 9 weeks at number one in Portugal and spawned international hit singles, selling over 1.5 million copies worldwide with several international certifications. The fourth studio album, This Time, was released in 2007, became her first top 10 album in Switzerland where was certified Gold. Of the five singles released from the album, the first three went to number one in Portugal.[9] In December, Chisholm reunited with the Spice Girls to release a greatest hits album supported by a world tour.[10] She released her fifth solo album, The Sea, in 2011, her first EP The Night in 2012,[11] the sixth studio album Stages, in 2012, and seventh album, Version of Me (2016). Her eponymous eighth studio album was released in 2020.
Having co-written 11 UK number ones, more than any other female artist in chart history, she remains the only female performer to top the charts as a solo artist, as part of a duo, quartet and quintet. With twelve UK number one singles, including the charity single as part of The Justice Collective, she is the second female artist – and the first British female artist – with most singles at number one in the United Kingdom, and with a total of fourteen songs that have received the number one in Britain (including the double A-sides), Chisholm is the female artist with most songs at number one in the UK ranking history.[12][13][14] Her work has earned her several awards and nominations, including a Guinness Book mention, three World Music Awards, five Brit Awards from 10 nominations, three American Music Awards, four Billboard Music Awards from six nomination, eight Billboard special awards, three MTV Europe Music Awards from seven nominations, one MTV Video Music Awards from two nomination, ten ASCAP awards, one Juno Award from two nominations, and four nominations at the Echo Awards.[15]

Melanie Jayne Chisholm[2] was born on 12 January 1974 in Whiston, Lancashire,[16][17] the only child of Joan O'Neill, who worked as a secretary and personal assistant and has been singing in music bands since she was 14,[18] and Alan Chisholm, a fitter at the Otis Elevator Company.[18] Her parents married in 1971 and separated in 1978, when Chisholm was four years old.[18] Her mother remarried and had more children, one of whom is racing driver Paul O'Neill, who was born when Chisholm was six years old.[19] She grew up in Widnes, Cheshire,[17] attending Brookvale Junior School in nearby Runcorn[18] and Fairfield High School in Widnes.[20] Following school, she studied for a diploma course in dance, singing, drama, and musical theatre at the Doreen Bird College of Performing Arts in London. During college, she replied to an advert in The Stage placed by Chris and Bob Herbert, who were looking to form a new girl group, later to become the Spice Girls.[17] She left college just short of completing her three-year course,[17] and gained teaching qualifications in tap and modern theatre dance with the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing.[17]
In 1994, Chisholm, along with Mel B, Geri Halliwell, and Victoria Beckham (nΓ©e Victoria Adams) responded to an advertisement in The Stage magazine.[21] Around 400 women who answered the ad went to Dance Works studios. Halliwell, Chisholm, Beckham and Brown were originally chosen as the members of the group, and then formed a quintet with Emma Bunton. The group felt insecure about the lack of a contract and were frustrated by the direction of Heart Management and broke with them. In 1995, they toured record labels in London and Los Angeles and finally signed a deal with Virgin. Their debut album, Spice, was a huge worldwide commercial success, peaked at number 1 in more than 17 countries across the world,[22] and was certified multi-platinum in 27 countries.[22] Conceptually, the album centered on the idea of Girl Power, and during that time was compared to Beatlemania.[23] In total the album sold 30 million copies worldwide,[24][25][26] becoming the biggest-selling album in music history by a girl group and one of the most successful albums of all time.[27][28] The first single, "Wannabe" reached number 1 in 37 countries,[29] and their subsequent singles – "Say You'll Be There", "2 Become 1", "Who Do You Think You Are" and "Mama" – all peaked at number 1 in the UK.[30][31]
In 1997, they released the second album, Spiceworld, with the two first singles "Spice Up Your Life" and "Too Much", that entered the UK Albums Chart at number 1, making it the group's all consecutive number 1 hit single, a record of musical groups all time.[32] The album was a global best seller, selling 20 million copies worldwide.[33] The group also starred in their own film, Spiceworld: The Movie, which grossed $100 million at the box office worldwide and became the second most watched movie of the year.[34] The next single, "Stop", peaked at two, breaking the sequence of number 1s, their only single to not reach the top of the charts. "Viva Forever", another number 1, was the last single before Geri Halliwell's departure from the group in May 1998.[35] "Never Give Up on the Good Times" was planned as fifth single, but was cancelled after this event.[36] With four members, the group released "Goodbye", before Christmas in 1998 and when it topped the UK Singles Chart it became their third consecutive Christmas number-one – equalling the record previously set by the Beatles.[37] On 30 November, Canadian artist Bryan Adams, released "When You're Gone" with featured vocals of Chisholm, her debut solo project.[38] The song peaked at number 3 on the UK Singles Chart, spent 15 weeks in the top 40 and received the platinum certified.[39][40]
In 1999, Chisholm signed with Virgin and, during the summer, recorded the album Northern Star. She recorded "Ga Ga" from the soundtrack of the film Big Daddy.[41] The song was released as promotional single on 25 June, only in the UK.[42] She also wrote and recorded the backing vocals for "(Hey You) Free Up Your Mind", sung by Emma Bunton from the film soundtrack PokΓ©mon: The First Movie.[43] On 27 September, Chisholm released her debut single, "Goin' Down" and peaked at number 4 in the UK and 25 in Australia.[9] The music video was shot in Los Angeles and directed by Giuseppi Capotondi.[44] Her debut album, Northern Star, was released on 18 October 1999, peaked at number 4 and sold 4 million copies worldwide, received triple platinum in the UK,[7] and another seven certifications, including platinum in Germany and Sweden.[45][46] "Northern Star" was released as a second single and also peaked at number 4.[9] To promote the album, Chisholm embarked on a tour called From Liverpool to Leicester Square, traveling to Australia, the US, Canada, Japan, the UK, Germany, Italy, Spain, France, Netherlands and Denmark, between 27 September and 1 November.[47] In 2000, Chisholm had two songs in film soundtracks, "Suddenly Monday" in Maybe Baby and "Go!" in Whatever It Takes.[48]
After the two singles did not reach the top of the charts, Virgin thought to end the promotion of the album, but decided to release one more single, "Never Be the Same Again", which broke the pop rock sound of the other songs and focused on R&B.[49] The song, featuring TLC member Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes, was released on 20 March 2000 and became her first number 1 single. It was received gold certification in the UK[7] and also peaked at number 1 in Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Scotland and Sweden.[50] The song was the 18th best-selling song of 2000 and sold more than a million copies across Europe.[51] After the success of "Never Be the Same Again", the label decided to release two more singles. On 7 August 2000, Virgin released a remix version of "I Turn to You" as the fourth single; the song reached her second number 1 in the UK, Netherlands and Sweden.[9] "I Turn to You" also peaked at number 1 in Austria, Denmark and Dance Club Songs of United States.[52] "If That Were Me" was released as fifth and final single and peaked at number 18. The proceeds from its sale went to the Kandu Arts charity.[9][53] The North American version of Northern Star was released on 21 August 2000 and included the single versions of "Never Be The Same Again" and "I Turn To You".[54] In late 2000, after the first solo work of members, the Spice Girls released their third and final album, Forever, sporting a new edgier R&B sound.[55] "Holler" and "Let Love Lead the Way" were released as singles on 23 October 2000 and the songs reached number 1 in the UK.[56] The album sold 5 million copies.[57] The group announced that they were beginning an indefinite hiatus.[58] In the same year, the Chinese singer FanFan recorded a Chinese version of "Suddenly Monday" from her debut album FanFan's World.[59]
Chisholm embarked in her first world tour, the Northern Star Tour, between late 2000 and 26 August 2001, to promote her debut album. The tour traveled in 76 dates, 30 countries and 4 continents, just not going to Oceania and South America.[60] The Shepherd's Bush Empire concert was webcast on Chisholm's original website with a special appearance of Bryan Adams.[61] On 4 April 2001, The audio of the Anaheim concert also was webcast on House of Blues' website.[61] A remixed album, entitled Remix Collection, was released only in Japan.[62] In 2001, Chisholm collaborated in the live album of Russell Watson, The Voice – Live, as featured vocals in the songs "Barcelona" and "Aren't You Kind of Glad We Did?".[63][64]
Chisholm began recording her second album in November 2001. She traveled to the United States to record some songs. During this time, she also recorded "Independence Day" from the film soundtrack Bend It Like Beckham and wrote "Help Me Help You" for Holly Valance, included in her album Footprints.[65] Chisholm, along with American singer Anastacia made an appearance at the 2002 MTV Europe Music Awards to present the award for "Best Song", which was given to P!nk.
Chisholm's second album was postponed to 10 March 2003. Chisholm also took time out due to struggles with clinical depression.[66] On 24 February 2003 the first single from her new album was released, "Here It Comes Again", which reached number 7 in the UK and peaked in the top 20 in Spain and Ireland.[9][67] She released her second studio album, Reason, on 10 March 2003 and it peaked at number 5,[68] received gold certification in the UK.[7] The label sent Chisholm to promote the album, including several pocket shows.[69] On 24 April 2003, she embarked in the Reason Tour, traveling only in Europe.[70] The second single, "On the Horizon", was released on 2 June 2003.[71] After the previous single, music critics[who?] were predicting that this single would redeem Chisholm's chart success, but the song peaked at number 14 and did not help sales.[9]
"Let's Love", was released as a single exclusively in Japan and used for a Toyota Motor Corporation commercial. Alongside promoting the album, Chisholm competed on the reality sports game show The Games. On 11 September 2003, during a taping of The Games, Chisholm competed in a judo match with Turkish-Dutch actress Azra Akin, which resulted in Chisholm injuring her knee.[72] Because of this, the song "Yeh Yeh Yeh", which was planned to be released as the third and final single on 22 September 2003, had to be pushed back because she could not fully promote an upbeat song with an injury.[73] "Melt" was then chosen to be launched along with "Yeh Yeh Yeh" as a double A-side, because she could do a small number of performances.[73] The double single was released on 10 November 2003.[74] The song peaked at number 27.[9] In other countries of Europe, "Melt" wasn't released, only "Yeh Yeh Yeh" as a solo release.[75] After the release of "Melt/Yeh Yeh Yeh", Chisholm added some extra dates to the Reason Tour, and the Avo Session Basel concert was broadcast on 3sat.
On 1 January 2004, Virgin Records dismissed Chisholm after the conflict in previous years about the direction in her solo career.[76] In April 2004, she founded her own label, Red Girl Records, to record and release her own projects. All of Chisolm's activities are decided upon and funded by herself. The label name was inspired by the colours of the football Liverpool F.C., of which Chisholm is a supporter.[77] Nancy Phillips, who had been Chisholm's manager and business partner since the label's inception, retired in 2017.[78][79]
