Lennox, who was in the bands The Tourists and The Eurythmics before launching a successful solo career, was awarded an OBE in 2010 by Queen Elizabeth II for her work fighting AIDS and poverty in Africa.

Lennox’s most recent album was released in 2010, it was a collection of Christmas tunes. Earlier this year she appeared alongside her Eurythmics partner Dave Stewart at the Grammy’s Tribute to The Beatles. The pair performed The Beatles classic ‘Fool on the Hill’.
