Lisa Jane Stansfield (born 11 April 1966) is an English singer, songwriter, and actress. Her career began in 1980 when she won the singing competition Search for a Star. After appearances in various television shows and releasing her first singles, Lisa Stansfield, along with Ian Devaney and Andy Morris, formed Blue Zone in 1983.
