Just read the news that Chrissie Amphlett from the Divinyls was found dead age 53. no word yet on what cause of death was but she was battling MS for the last 15 years and also suffered breast cancer.
Had some really cool songs and was a wild chick
RIP Chrissie

Was fighting breast cancer, I believe. Underrated - The Divinyls Also fought multiple sclerosis which I read was the reason she couldn't have radiation treatment for the cancer. As you said Divinyls were very underrated. |

Always like her. She seemed like a great humble person.
R.I.P. Chrissy.

They made some great tunes and she had a great voice.
Some of the tunes are still alive and well and the form of covers by dance producers.
RIP

A true rock chick, never tried to be pop or go with the trends. Had her own type of swag and attitude, will be missed.

Molly Meldrum told a story about the first time he saw her at a gig and she kept looking at him and lifting her skirt and flashing him. he said the band was raw and rough, but the crowd was loving it, and they, especially Chrissy, had a real connection with the crowd. Said the Divinyls have to be ranked up there with other Aussie Bands

Luvd Chrissy A, along with Joan Jett probably my favourite Rock Chick
only saw her once with the Divynls but she had a real star presence about her and was so effing sexy, she didnt wear the schoolgirl attire when i saw her and this tight knee length red leather outfit on and i swear i had a hardon for the whole show
