Singer Louise Redknapp celebrated a huge milestone after her new album, Confessions, entered the top 10.
The Beautiful Inside hitmaker, who rose to fame in the early 1990s as one-fourth of girl group Eternal, dropped her fifth studio album last Friday (May 23).
Despite a long pop career, Confessions became Louise’s first top 10 album since 1996’s Woman In Me, peaking at No. 8. Her last studio album, Heavy Love, released in 2020, just missed the top 10, reaching No. 11.
