Is there anything this guy hasn’t tried? He may have wiped his Facebook page from existence, but Sean Borg’s Instagram page seems to be on fire, if these artsy throwbacks from 1992 are anything to go by.
The pics are from the days when Borg was a member of the “Electropop” outfit — “Stuff & Art.” The tasteful sexy black and white photographs by successful UK photographer Simon Fowler show the British entertainment personality and his band-mates completely and utterly in the buff… Not a G-String in sight!
Well-known magazine website Best in Au was the first news outlet to show the pictures, reporting Sean, who has had a successful run in entertainment news, was a singer in his early youth. Borg even helped Australian actress and singer Natalie Imbruglia in securing her first major recording deal in the UK. He went on to be one of the familiar faces in the world-famous Trivago hotel advertisements, and that is just a small part of his long career in front of the camera..
Sean spoke to the site about the time he calls, “his fun and fabulous path,” saying,: “I’m so proud of the pics, I loved working with Simon Fowler. I think it was Simon’s idea that we all strip off in the name of “pop art”. Beverly (Skye Mary) sent them to me a few weeks back. I was reluctant to post them at first. The pictures were never released; no one had ever seen them before. But I thought about it and decided what the hell, we all look good!”
So, where are Stuff & Art now?
Sean said: “We were doing quite well actually. Our song that I wrote — “All I Desired” was receiving excellent reviews. We were on a huge Radio One Roadshow tour with Kylie Minogue, Jason Donavan, “Take That” and “M-People,” and was about to sign a massive deal with EMI who Nathan — then the lead singer with Brother Beyond was signed to.”
He said: “However, as fate would have it, while we were on tour, Beverly — who was going out with bass player Graham Clark of pop-supergroup “Wet We Wet,” discovered she was pregnant with Graham’s baby, which was incredible for her. But we decided the right thing to do was to take a break for a while. But due to other commitments, we never found time to get back together. So, it was bye-bye, pop career!”
He added: “I’m happy to say everyone went on to great things, I left for Los Angeles to pursue work opportunities focusing on a career in entertainment news television. Nathan left “Brother Beyond” and joined “Worlds Apart,” he enjoyed enormous “boyband” success across Europe. Beverly is now a successful model and songwriter. She married Graham at the height of Wet Wet Wet’s success when “Love is All Around” was in the charts. Their son, Alexander, is now 27-years old. Wow! The years have certainly flown by.”
Sean said he doesn’t miss being in the music industry one bit. He said, “I don’t miss it all! It was very stressful and an emotional roller coaster ride. Fame doesn’t always bring happiness; I have learned.”
We would have to agree with you on that one, Sean!
