Belinda Jo Carlisle is an American singer.
She gained fame as the lead vocalist of the Go-Go's, the most successful all-female rock band of all time,[1] and went on to have a prolific career as a solo artist.
Raised in Southern California, Carlisle became the lead vocalist of the Go-Go's after the band's formation in 1978.
With their chart-topping debut studio album Beauty and the Beat in 1981, the group helped popularize new wave music in the United States.
The Go-Go's were the first (and to date only) all-female band in history who wrote their own songs and played their own instruments to achieve a No. 1 album. The Go-Go's have sold over seven million records worldwide.
After the break-up of the Go-Go's in 1985, Carlisle went on to have a successful solo career with radio hits such as "Mad About You", "I Get Weak", "Circle in the Sand", "Leave a Light On", and "Heaven Is a Place on Earth".
The Go-Go's reformed in 1999, and Carlisle continues to perform with them regularly while also maintaining her solo career.
Carlisle's autobiography, Lips Unsealed, published in June 2010, was a New York Times Best Seller and received favorable reviews.
In 2011, Carlisle, as a member of the Go-Go's, received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
She and the band were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2021.
