FADED Blondie star Debbie Harry is shining again – with her first live shows in Britain for seven years.
The platinum pin-up was back to her raunchiest best in a tight red mini-dress as she drove the fellas wild at London’s Borderline Club.
It was a far cry from the fat and frumpy Debbie of three years ago who sacrificed her glamour and career to nurse her guitarist boyfriend Chris Stein through a nightmare illness.
But time has taken its toll. Now 45, she had to keep referring to her prompt sheet to sing the lyrics of old hits like Heart Of Glass and Call Me.
And as befits the passing of time, Debbie has made it known she now only answers to the more dignified name of Deborah.
