Blonde Ambition

Blonde Ambition (born Cynthia Denisse; September 15, 1986) is an American singer and model who rose to fame in late 2010 when she was confirmed to be representing Greece in the Uravision Song Contest with her song entry "Love War", however the contest was later cancelled which led her to take time away to record music for her debut album.
After taking the time to record music, Blonde eventually released her debut single "In Your Dreams" on February 7, 2011 which became a top 10 hit, charting at #6 which it remained at for two weeks. She reached the top 10 with follow-up single "Champion" and achieved her first top 5 single with "The Workout". To date, "Downtown" remains as Blonde's most successful single which reached #1 and was certified Platinum.
==Early life and career beginnings==
Blonde Ambition grew up in Los Angeles, California and became a child model as early as the age of five and went onto win several child beauty pageants which was forced upon by her father. However, her mother forced her out of child modelling before it began to take off once her parents divorced as her mother did not agree with it. As a late teenager, Blonde Ambition began picking up an interest in music and with thanks to her mothers help, managed to score time in the recording studio to record a demo in an attempt to get signed, Blonde had no luck as of yet but managed the opportunity to be one of the many hopefuls to perform at the Uravision Song Contest. She managed to get the chance to perform her song "Love War" on Greece's selection show for the contest and she topped the voting polls, being chosen to represent the country. However, after many delays and speculation, the contest was later cancelled and Blonde went back into the studio to continue work on her music.
==Rise to fame and The Beauty Within==
After the Uravision Song Contest, Blonde Ambition went back into the studio to record a new demo which was sent off to various labels, and later received a reply from Fusion Records who were interested in signing her. The label then sent Blonde into the studio with top producers to start work on her debut album, titled The Beauty Within. The first single from the album, "In Your Dreams" was produced by Dr. Luke and featured her was-to-be Uravision entry "Love War" as a b-side. The single went onto chart at #6 in the UK singles chart, remaining at that peak for two weeks and going onto achieve a Gold certification. The second single from the album, "Champion", features hit stars Brett Clarkson and KIRBY and was released March 21, 2011, charting at #7 and going onto become certified Silver. The album was released the same day as single "Champion" and peaked at #3 and has been certified Platinum to date. Third single "The Workout" was released May 16, 2011 and peaked at #3. Her fourth single "Downtown" scored Blonde her first ever number one single.
==Celebrity Big Brother, Light After Dark and pregnancy==
According to several early reports, Blonde had been hard at work on her second studio album from as early as May 2011, when she was still releasing singles from debut The Beauty Within. Ahead of its release, Blonde entered the Celebrity Big Brother house on October 6, 2011, but was evicted on October 23, 2011. On November 16, 2011, a buzz video was released online which showed Blonde and several extras in a warehouse masquerade, the video ended with the message, "Coming 2012". 
On December 16, 2011, Blonde's lead single "Knock Knock" and second studio album Light After Dark were announced on her official website. The day after, the single premiered on her website to extremely positive reviews, praising Blonde's new house-oriented direction. Both the single and album were released on January 16, 2012 on Fusion Records, both of them peaked at #2 and were certified Platinum.
In March 2012, Blonde Ambition's pregnancy was announced, months after her relationship with boyfriend Ryan Manning circulated online. Due to this, all plans for the Light After Dark album were abruptly cancelled.
