Una Healy
Una Theresa Imogene Foden〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Saturdays' Una Foden explains name change: 'It got confusing' )〕 (née Healy; 10 October 1981)〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Una – Band Members )〕 is an Irish singer-songwriter, musician, and a television presenter. She rose to fame in 2008 as a member of the 5 member English–Irish girl group The Saturdays, signed to Fascination and Polydor Records. The group have achieved substantial success with numerous top-ten hits as well as a hit number one single entitled 'What About Us'. In October 2014, it was confirmed that she would become a judge on ''The Voice of Ireland''.
==Early life==
Foden was born in Thurles, to Anne, a nurse, and John Healy, a GP. She has a sister named Deirdre.〔("Sorry Una, this is my Saturday" ) Daily Mail; accessed 2 February 2012.〕 She comes from a musical background, and is the niece of country singer Declan Nerney.〔("Saturdays star Una is singer Nerney's niece" ) 25 January 2008, Evening Herald; accessed 2 February 2012.〕 She is a cousin of Irish athlete Paul Hession.〔("Declan Nerney, The Saturdays and the Athenry connection" ), TuamHerald.ie; accessed 2 February 2012.〕 At the age of 13, she gave up swimming (she was an All-Ireland champion swimmer at nine)〔("Una Healy — One of a five" ) at FHM web site; accessed 2 February 2012.〕 and decided to teach herself to play using her mother's guitar and from then on began to write songs of her own.
After finishing school at 18, she decided to take a year out and became a medical secretary, and from then went on to study nursing and then primary teaching at Mary Immaculate College, but decided finally to go ahead and pursue her music passion at 23 years old.〔(Profile ), metro.co.uk, 15 August 2010.〕
She began her music career playing guitar and singing in pubs and clubs around Ireland, solo and in bands.〔("SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER: BEAUTY Una is tipped to be the next Nadine as she targets chart success with her new girlband" ), herald.ie, 28 July 2008; accessed 2 February 2012.〕〔("Thurles Girl In Top UK Band" ) Tipperary Star, 2 August 2008; accessed 2 February 2012.〕 Whilst she was slowly finding success in her native Ireland as an indie solo artist, she felt she did not have a firm direction in her career. Therefore, in the summer of 2007 she flew over to London to gain more exposure and experience and landed an audition for The Saturdays, which was her first audition for a major label and abroad.〔("Don't call me a Spice Girl – I'm one of The Saturdays" ), independent.ie, 12 August 2010; accessed 2 February 2012.〕
