1. Dana Rosemary Scallon, is a successful former singer turned Irish politician.
About Dana Rosemary Scallon: Dana Rosemary Scallon, formerly Dana (born August 30, 1951), is a successful former singer turned Irish politician.
Scallon was born Rosemary Brown in Derry, Northern Ireland. In 1970 as a teenager she represented Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest, singing “All Kinds of Everything” (written by Derry Lindsay and Jackie Smith), and brought home the country’s first victory in the contest. She had some minor hits in the British and Irish music charts subsequently. Always religious, she became more famous for singing religious songs, such as “Totus Tuus”, commemorating the visit of Pope John Paul II to Ireland in 1979.
In the 1980s, she moved with her husband, Damien Scallon, and family to the United States, where they were involved with a Christian broadcasting network. She returned to Ireland in 1997 to become a candidate for the office of President of Ireland where, though an independent candidate with no party political organisation behind her, she came in a credible third, ahead of the candidate of the mainstream Labour Party. In 1999, again as an independent, she contested and won a seat in the European Parliament representing the Connacht-Ulster European elections constituency.
