Nineties pop legend looks unrecognisable 26 years after smash hit and record label row
NINETIES pop legend Ultra Naté looked unrecognisable 26 years after her smash hit Free and record label row.
The 55-year-old recently made an appearance on the Radio 2 with Rylan Clarke.
Rylan shared a clip from her guest appearance on Instagram for his 1.7m followers to enjoy.
Ultra looked incredible in the studio in a red top, wet look leggings and her hair styled into loose waves.
The X Factor star said to her he couldn’t let her leave without doing some ‘kaRYoke’ with him.
The pair belted out her 1997 banger Free – and Rylan couldn’t contain his excitement.
Rylan captured the post: “KaRYoke – Rylan X Ultra Nate – Free.”
Fans rushed to the comments section to share the love.
One said: “That was fab. What a tune.”
“Bloody best song ever….saw Ultra sing and promote this song at Southport Weekender in 97. Brilliant,” another chimed in.
A third wrote: “A-maz-ing!!!! Both of you. Love it. Xx.”
Ultra shot to fame in the late 80s, but reached mainstream when her song Free was released in 1997.
Her other popular songs include If You Could Read My Mind and Automatic.
The star has also released a number of albums including Blue Notes in the Basement, One Woman’s Insanity, Situation: Critical and most recently Ultra.
Ultra was originally signed with Warner Bros. Records.
But by 1997 she decided to go independent and signed with Strictly Rhythm Records.
