For more than 35 years, Debbie Gibson has been a force: a singer, songwriter, producer, musician, actor, and entrepreneur.

She’s been famous since she was a kid. Gibson took the music business by storm when she hit the Billboard Pop Charts at 16 with her song “Only In My Dreams.”

Debbie became the youngest artist ever to write, produce and perform a No. 1 hit song –  “Foolish Beat” – on the Billboard Hot 100 and entered the Guinness Book of World Records. She remains the youngest female to hold that record. Oh and less than a year later, she did it again with “Lost in Your Eyes,” which she wrote and produced.
