Singer Sandra McKenzie, famed for the ‘whoa’ roar on the 1990s Bodyform TV advert, has revealed that she is now broke and homeless.
The ex-lead singer of rock band Goldbug and Prince’s one-time lover once had millions in the bank, apartments all over the world and a yacht.

She was the voice of the Bodyform TV ad, and had reached number three in the charts with a cover of the Led Zeppelin hit Whole Lotta Love.
She had also attended the same Swiss finishing school as Princess Diana.
But Sandra, 56, says she is now back in her hometown of Dundee, living in a hostel for homeless people with no money to her name.

‘I had everything,’ she said. ‘I led an amazing life, a proper rock ‘n’ roll life, but I have nothing left. I’m desperate. I sometimes don’t think I can go on much longer.
‘I feel so ill, hate where I’m having to stay and I’m desperate to turn my life around again, but I just don’t know how.
‘I’m rubbish with money. I led the high life, loved to party and enjoyed a drink.
‘I was way too generous with my money whenever I had it and bought lavish gifts for friends.’
She also reckons that a series of bad business decisions led her to where she is today.
