Born on November 9, 1984 in Sydney, Australia, Delta Goodrem found fame playing the character of Nina Tucker on the long-running Australian soap opera Neighbours, which she joined in 2002. She had previously made inroads as a teen popstar but her newfound celebrity status helped to restart her music career and she went on to become one of Australia's best-loved modern popstars. In 2003, Delta Goodrem released her debut album Innocent Eyes to critical acclaim, yielding four ARIA Top 10 singles and with the album going multi-platinum in Australia, New Zealand and the UK. Championing an easy-listening breed of piano-driven pop, where she often plays the instrument while barefoot, Delta Goodrem pulled off another ARIA chart-topper with her second album Mistaken Identity, on which she attempted to process her experience of Hodgkin's lymphoma; the song "Extraordinary Day" deals specifically with the day of her diagnosis. She then notched up another chart-topper with her third self-titled album, released in October 2007, which was also her first album to be released in the US. She released four more studio albums in the years that followed and has racked up nine Number 1 singles and 17 Top 10 hits on the ARIA Singles Chart to date. In 2020, Delta Goodrem released a charity single titled "Let It Rain," and also performed at the One World: Together at Home and Music from the Home Front concert to raise money in support of the COVID-19 pandemic. Her seventh studio album, Bridge over Troubled Dreams, arrived in 2021.
