Billy More allured the European dance charts: she was so popular and she had so many engagements all over the Europe that she had to entrust her dear pigs, Castore and Polluce, to a friend of her that lives in the country. "Things are better like that" said Billy "now they can run about through the farmyard... when they lived in my house, they always ate my lip-sticks!"
It was 1999 when the DJ producer Roberto Santini saw the performance of a sophisticated Drag Queen in a famous club in Milan. Soon, the life of Billy More changed: "Up & Down (Don’t Fall In Love With Me)" sold 25,000 copies in Italy! The single was the released in many other European countries and in Canada. Hundreds of shows in Italian discotheques followed and several appearances on Italian television shows, and the definitive consecration with the video clip "Refined laundry girl" and the memorable performance at Festivalbar, with more than 30,000 people that proclaimed "Up & Down" hit of the summer. The track was top ten in the most important European charts and was included in an MC Mario compilation in Canada. Billy went on to release numerous smash singles including "New Millenium Girl", "Come On & Do It", "Loneliness" and her final single in the spring of 2005, "Gimme Love".
BIT Press Release Regarding Billy’s Death
BIT RECORDS is sad to announce the death of Billy More (aka Massimo Maglione), after a struggle with leukaemia.
Crowned queen of Italian dance music in 2000 thanks to hit "Up and down" (Don’t fall in love with me) and the following singles, the vocalist/drag queen had just scored yet another hit with "Gimme Love".
Debuting as a club vocalist in the Rimini area and then moving to Milan, she was a key character in the Italian and European club scene, supporting many famous dJ’s and always up to the latest trends.
After a long experience at writing for children television, her career as a vocalist started as a laugh and her hits leave us with the picture of a reassuring and nice drag queen: Billy More has left us quietly on 14th August 2005.
