From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nathan Moore (born 20 January, 1965 in Stamford Hill, London, England) is a singer, one time boyband member and pop idol manager.

[edit] Career

First coming to prominence by joining the popular boyband Brother Beyond as the lead singer in 1987 (when the band and their record label won an auction to record a record with successful 80s producers Stock, Aitken and Waterman), Nathan was subsequently in a line up of boyband Worlds Apart that became chart stars in France.

After leaving the band, and like 1980s chart rival Craig Logan of Bros fame, Nathan ventured into music management, representing a number of Pop Idol contestants such as Jessica Garlick.

Nathan recorded 'If There Was Love', a duet with Kim Wilde in 2002. The song was never released due to lack of interest from record companies.

In the 2000s he found himself as a reality TV personality, not only as a singer on music revival programme Hit Me Baby One More Time, but also as Lisa Scott-Lee's manager on the hit MTV Europe programme Totally Scott-Lee.

In May of 2004, he was arrested for soliciting a female prostitute who turned out to be an undercover police officer. Moore pleaded guilty to the charges.[1]

Nathan Moore was involved (as a manager) in an E4/Channel 4 TV show called "Boys Will Be Girls", a six week show that aired from April 2006, that featured member from such groups such as the Fast Food Rockers. The aim of the show was to try to pull off one of the most bizarre and humorous stunts in pop history: passing off a bunch of male ex pop-band members as a brand new girl band. Over the course of the show, the trio (The Honeytraps) were shown having lessons in how to be feminine and recorded a download single, a cover of an old 1980s A Flock Of Seagulls track called "Wishing (If I Had A Photograph of You)".

On July 18 2006 Nathan Moore issued a statement via his website announcing that he had stopped managing acts. . "I would like to let you know that I am no longer managing acts. I will be concentrating on TV / radio work plus recording new music and Live (sic) singing! The only artist now managed by Hyperactive from my singers is James Fox."[2]
