Yasmin Le Bon, a model, is well-known for being the wife of Simon Le Bon. Simon Le Bon, the lead singer for Duran Duran, was born at the Bushey Maternity Hospital in Bushey, Hertfordshire, on October 27, 1958. By chance, he and his father share the same birthday.
He is the oldest of the three sons of John and Ann-Marie Le Bon. David and Jonathan, his younger siblings, will follow him. When Le Bon was six years old, his mother recognized and supported his artistic talent.
She enrolled him in a successful screen test for a Persil washing powder TV commercial. Le Bon also showed an early interest in music by joining the neighborhood church choir at a young age. He also received acting training.
Before Duran Duran regrouped in 1986, Le Bon and Nick Rhodes created a band called Arcadia. Their debut single, “Election Day,” reached the top 10 charts in the US and the UK. Their sole studio album, “So Red the Rose,” was released in 1985.
Le Bon has participated in solo projects in addition to being a member of Duran Duran for all of the group’s studio albums.
In 1985, he composed the song “Grey Lady of the Sea” for the Whitbread Round the World Race, and in 1987, he narrated the video documentary “Drum” that tracked the race. The single “Grey Lady of the Sea” was released in Japan in 1988.
