Sheena Easton (born Sheena Shirley Orr, 27 April 1959) is a pop singer originally from Bellshill, Scotland. Sheena became famous for being the subject of the UK TV programme "The Big Time", a late 70s reality TV series which recorded her attempts to gain a record contract. She suceeded spectacularly by having TWO singles in the UK chart at the same time in early 1980. The rest is history... Trivia: In the entire James Bond series, Sheena is the only artist seen performing a song in the title sequence, with "For Your Eyes Only".
