90S POP ICON 'HASN'T AGED A DAY' THREE DECADES ON FROM SMASH HIT

Whigfield, the pop sensation behind the 1994 smash hit Saturday Night, appears to defy time itself, looking as youthful as ever nearly 30 years after becoming the first Danish artist to snag a UK number one.

Nowadays, Sannie Charlotte Carlson, Whigfield's real name, continues to dazzle, recently wowing her 54,500 Instagram fans with a gorgeous makeup-free selfie, showcasing her signature blonde tresses draped casually over one shoulder.

The 53-year-old singer radiated with a fresh-faced glow in the snapshot, which she simply captioned: "Hola Madrid."

Sannie has also been candid about her personal life, sharing the heartache of losing her beloved dog Olivia, confessing to her followers: "I haven't really felt like posting anything these past few weeks. Still a bit down after losing my beloved doggie."

Despite grappling with grief, the pop star is gearing up to return to the limelight, assuring her audience: "Gonna be good to getting back to work this weekend. Anyhow, wishing you a happy weekend whatever you've up to," and ending her message with a black heart emoji, reports OK!.

Her loyal fanbase was quick to shower her with compliments on her enduring allure, with adoring comments such as: "Looking better than ever!"

On The Songs Are Spells Podcast, Whigfield recently recounted an interesting story to host Karlyn King about her unexpected rise to stardom: "What happened was, a lot of these holidaymakers came back to Britain and started calling into radio stations..." She went on to explain the intrigue that surrounded her hit: "Everybody was calling about this Saturday Night and nobody knew what it was about. They had to go get it."

This curiosity helped her single Saturday Night shoot to number one: "That was the reason why it went straight to number 1, no one had heard it."

Still active in the music scene, Whigfield, who also performs under the name Naan and her given name Sannie, continues to thrill fans with comeback tours. She's not just remembered for Saturday Night; hits like Sexy Eyes and Think Of You also define her career.
