One of Waterstones' Best Entertainment Books of the Year 2024, 1987, tells the inspiring behind-the-scenes story of Nicki Chapman's journey from a looked-over assistant to a judge on Pop Idol with 15 million viewers tuning in. Armed with a Filofax, a brick of a mobile phone, and steely determination, Nicki navigates the seedy streets of Soho towards her first job in the music biz. But how did she go from being a looked-over assistant running promo packages over to BBC Radio 1 to a judge on Pop Idol with 15 million viewers tuning in for the nail-biting moment Will Young triumphed over Gareth Gates? Everyone knows there were the kingmakers in the heady days of 90s British pop music, but this is a queen's side of the story; a down-to-earth, no-nonsense team player who fought to make it in an industry that was very much a man's world. Empowering, entertaining, and sprinkled with stardust, Nicki's inspirational behind-the-scenes story takes in the rocketing highs and heart-breaking lows of promoting, managing, and touring with the Spice Girls, Amy Winehouse, David Bowie, Take That, Billie Piper, Phil Collins, and S Club 7, all whilst confronting chauvinism and smashing through the career glass ceiling.
