    She's the kind of girl you notice. Not because she's loud-she isn't. Not because she's the prettiest in the room-though she might be. It's something else. A weightlessness, like she's walking a few inches above the ground, like the world shifts to make space for her. Dark, wide eyes hold a hundred secrets but never give away a single one. A slow, knowing smirk. A voice like warm whiskey-smooth, with a bite if you're paying attention. Coco moves like she's been here before. The late-night parties, the hazy dressing rooms, the soundchecks that blur into soundscapes of cigarette smoke and bad decisions. She's the girl leaning against the bar, stirring her drink with her finger, listening more than she talks. Always just out of reach. Nobody agrees where she came from. Some say she was a backup singer for a band that never made it. Others swear she was some rich girl who ran away, changed her name, and never looked back. But one thing's for sure-she belongs here. In the chaos, the music, the stories people tell the morning after. And if you get too close-if she lets you-you'll find out why everyone remembers Coco. But she won't make it easy. She never does.

    Fifteen year-old Maggie arrives in London on the run from her humdrum suburban life, determined to make it big in show business. For more than thirty years she is exploited by both men and the media. She struggles against endless set-backs and disappointments, always remaining optimistic, always believing that this time her big break has come. Then, when most of us would have given up all hope, the celebrity circus rockets her to bizarre and unexpected pinnacles of fame. Starting in 1970 Maggie de Beer’s journey mirrors the rise of celebrity culture and the growth of the media which ruthlessly created it, exploiting and destroying the lives of girls like Maggie who willingly offered themselves up, happy to make any amount of personal sacrifices in exchange for a chance to live the dream. She is determined to make herself “interesting” and only when she finally achieves her goal, at enormous personal cost, does she finally discover, under the full glare of the media spotlight, that the family she was running away from was never as humdrum as she had believed. This is the story of a woman who just wanted to be recognised and loved by the public. www.MaggiedeBeer.com
