During that period, both singers were signed to PWL and had a similar style.

I agree. There's something not that British about her. Maybe her eyes and mouth... I'm not sure.

She was part of Stock Aitken and Waterman's Motown-esque production line. The artists were employed like instruments, and the production was tight and cutting-edge.

Here is another:

The video was filmed in Brighton, East Sussex.

Stock, Aitken and Waterman did some plagiarising of their own; compare and contrast:

she looks mixed like someone you might find here in the USA I think. She looks maybe part Irish and part something else.

She looks Irish more than English properly.

Brunn + Alpinid, though her face type can be seen easily in England.

I think her forehead is too tall to be just Bruenn + Alpinid, who are both low skulled phenotypes.

A difficult one. I'd guess Alpine + Borreby. I think she looks similar to this 80's era singer (Carol Decker.) I've just read on Wiki that Carol is also from Merseyside where the other singer (Sonia from Liverpool, Merseyside) is from.

At least Carol Decker isn't a cheesy singer - unlike the other singer, Sonia.

She seems one of those British types like Emily Wason, mainly some Alpine type.
From internet pics she seems a redhead/curly type. A type of Mick Hucknal leprechaun race.

Isn't it quite normal for British groups/artists to have a large following in S America?

Not ones as obscure as her. She barely even succeeded in the US.

You can definitely hear a similarity with some of Stock Aitken and Waterman's other hits in that song above, i wonder if S A and W were more popular in Latin America than in the US i.e Rick Astley

Was Rick Astley especially popular in Latin America? News to me.
