Paloma Faith (born Paloma Faith Blomfield, 21 July 1981) is an English singer, songwriter and actress, known for her retro and eccentric style.

Faith released her debut album Do You Want the Truth or Something Beautiful? in 2009, featuring the top twenty singles "Stone Cold Sober" and "New York". The album reached number nine in the United Kingdom, and was later certified double-platinum in the country. In 2012, she released her second studio album, Fall to Grace, which reached number two in the UK and has since been certified double-platinum. The album produced her first top ten single, "Picking Up the Pieces", and the top twenty cover version of INXS's "Never Tear Us Apart" featured in the 2012 John Lewis advertising campaign. Her third album, A Perfect Contradiction, was released in 2014 and has become her most successful album to date. The album included the top ten singles "Can't Rely on You", and "Only Love Can Hurt Like This" which became her highest-charting single in the UK.

Besides receiving four Brit Award nominations, winning British Female Solo Artist in 2015, she has also made feature film appearances in The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, Dread and the 2007 remake of St Trinian's.

Biography

She was briefly married to New Zealand chef Rian Haynes in 2005; however they split after eight months and were divorced four years later.

Faith admitted to being born in 1981, rather than the four years younger she had claimed, after her birth certificate was revealed online, but she does not feel age is important. She claims that she told record executives that she was younger than she actually was because she felt that she would not be signed to their label if she had told them her true age.

In 2011, a portrait of Faith was painted by British artist Joe Simpson; the painting was exhibited around the UK, including a solo exhibition at the Royal Albert Hall.

Fred is a retired composer of classical music; at the hotel, he is approached by an emissary for Queen Elizabeth II to perform his popular piece "Simple Songs" at Prince Philip's birthday concert.

Annabelle Fritton (Talulah Riley), an uptight daddy’s girl, unwillingly transfers to St Trinian’s from the distinguished Cheltenham Ladies’ College at her father’s (Rupert Everett) request. Annabelle is clearly different and doesn’t fit in, telling her father, Carnaby Fritton, that the school is “like Hogwarts for pikeys”. She is taken around the school by Kelly Jones (Gemma Arterton), the head girl, who introduces her to the various cliques within the school, including Emos, Chavs, Geeks and the First Years. On her first night at St Trinian’s, Annabelle calls her father and demands he pick her up immediately, following a series of pranks played on her by the other students, but her father dismisses her.
