In the 1980s, Susanna Hoffs’ iconic sideways glance in The Bangles’ “Walk Like an Egyptian” became one of the decade’s most memorable images. With her tousled hair and playful charisma, Hoffs quickly became a symbol of 80s pop culture. Today, at 64, she remains a captivating figure, balancing her timeless beauty with a dynamic career.
The Bangles’ breakthrough came with their 1986 album “Different Light,” featuring hits like “Manic Monday” and “Walk Like an Egyptian.” Despite internal tensions, they achieved major success with “Everything” (1988). Following the band’s dissolution, Hoffs explored acting, solo music, and diverse artistic projects, including a notable collaboration with Mike Myers in the “Austin Powers” films.
The Bangles’ reunion in the late 1990s, spurred by Jay Roach’s film request, led to new albums and tours. Hoffs continues to impress with her recent novel and music, proving her enduring relevance and artistic evolution.
