Peter André (born as Peter James Andrea 27 February 1973 in Harrow, London, England) is a pop Singer Songwriter and television personality. He was raised in Australia, and is of Greek Cypriot descent. He currently lives in Buxted in East Sussex, England.

Born to Greek parents Savvhas and Thea, André has four older brothers (Andrew, Chris, Danny, Michael) and one older sister (Debbie).

André was discovered on the Australian TV talent show New Faces in 1990. Australian music guru and Melodian Records boss Molly Meldrum was one of the judges on the show and signed André up after seeing him do a Bobby Brown impression. In 1992, the debut single Gimme Little Sign was released and peaked at #3. In 1993, a self-titled album charted well in Australia and the hit singles Funky Junky, Let's Get It On/Do You Wanna Dance? and To The Top all hit the Australian Top 50 charts. In 1993, Gimme a Little Sign picked up an ARIA Award - as the highest selling single of the year.

André first had a top 50 single in the UK called Only One, which reached number #16, and then gained further success with the song Mysterious Girl (featuring Bubbler Ranx), which reached #2 in the UK singles chart. He then had a #1 album Natural, and two #1 singles Flava, and I Feel You. However, after attempting to transform into an R&B artist rather than pop and releasing a few more singles, his success waned with his second album Time, only reaching #28. In 1998 he released his last single (a cover of the song Kiss the Girl from Disney's The Little Mermaid) before being dropped by his music label, and taking a long break from the charts.

During this period he journeyed to Cyprus, later appearing on the British reality TV series I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here!, where he constantly flirted with model Jordan, real name Katie Price. He then re-released his breakthrough hit Mysterious Girl in 2004, finally reaching #1 eight years after the 1996 re-release of the song (it had been released once before in 1995). This marked six years since his last chart appearance. He released a follow-up song In-sane-ia, which reached #3 in the UK in June 2004. A new album, entitled The Long Road Back, was also released that month, however only reached #44. The next single from the album was The Right Way, and featured Jordan in the video. This reached #14 in September 2004.

André and Price became the parents of a 5lb 13oz (2.6 kg) boy, Junior Savva Andreas, on 13 June 2005. On 10 September 2005, they were married at Highclere Castle, Berkshire.

Recently André released a rendition of "A Whole New World" from the Disney movie Aladdin in which Jordan sings Jasmine's lyrics. The song has been panned by critics for Price's singing with one critic stating "when Jordan chimes in after a minute or so with her high-pitched, way off tune karaoke, you would swear an animal was being attacked." Personal Life Peter and Jordan are now living together. André and Price released a duets album on 27 November 2006 titled A Whole New World with all proceedings going to their chosen charities due to the poor health conditions of Jordan's son Harvey.
