- TriviaHer biggest selling single was a cover of Otis Clay's 1980 song "The Only Way Is Up", which in the summer of 1988 spent 5 weeks at the top of the UK singles chart and ultimately became the 2nd biggest selling UK single of the year.
- QuotesThere was this huge picture of me in the press. They had overdeveloped one photo and underdeveloped the other so I looked really dark skinned and really white. They said 'Yazz goes Daz'. 'Yazz is using chemicals to whiten her skin, it's another Michael Jackson'. That was wounding. From there I didn't trust anyone in the media. There were constant lies to sell the paper.
- TrademarkA peroxide pixie cut (which she sported at the height of her fame)
