Full article:
Cilla Black : Brian Epstein was looking for a girl singer to take on, and John said it should be me. I actually thought it was Ringo, but he said, 'It wasn't me who recommended you. It was John.' And John never said a word. He had this kind of shy side – and he was very, very shy with women.
Cilla Black : George (Martin) seemed to like me and I certainly liked him. I fancied him like mad. He was gorgeous.
I went into work on Monday morning and handed in my notice. I said, 'I'm going to be a star.' My boss said, 'What do you mean, star?'
