André was discovered on Australia's Talent Show "New Faces" in 1990 after performing numerous Bobby Brown hits.
In 1992, André's singles "Drive Me Crazy" and "Gimme Little Sign" were released. In 1993, a self-titled album charted well in Australia and the hit singles "Funky Junky," "Let's Get It On," "Do You Wanna Dance" and "To the Top" all hit the Australian Top 50 charts. In 1993, "Gimme a Little Sign" picked up an ARIA Award as the highest selling single of the year.
André is perhaps best known for his second UK hit, "Mysterious Girl" which reached No. 2 in 1996, and hit No. 1 when re-released in 2004 following an appearance on "I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!" He previously had topped the UK charts with "Flava" and "I Feel You," both in 1996.
His success dried up somewhat when André attempted to make the transformation between teen-pop heartthrob and mature R&B singer with mixed results.
In 1998 he released a UK Top 10 version of "Kiss The Girl" from Disney's "The Little Mermaid" before being dropped from his record label and disappearing from the public eye. This was until his "I'm A Celebrity" appearance in 2004, which led to his third No. 1 and spawned the No. 3 UK hit "Insania." He reportedly wrote the song while filming the reality show, which featured Price. The public witnessed the relationship grow between the two, which turned them into tabloid staples.
André and Price were married and had a son, Junior, in 2005, and a daughter, Princess Tiaamii, in 2007. The couple released an album of duets, "A Whole New World," which reached No. 20 on the British charts in 2006.
News broke on 11 May 2009 that André and Price had separated after three and a half years of marriage. André said on the British TV show "This Morning" that there is little chance the couple will reconcile.

Trying to put these words together so I can get it right
I notice you ain't used to dealing with this type of guy
I ain't your average dude so there's no need for thinking twice
One thing I know for sure is that I can change your life
And girl you know it so come and take that ride
And I can prove it, just let me do it
Anything that you need, girl I'm here for you
Hey girl (hey girl) I hope you're ready for us
I'll be that dude that you want but I've gotta be honest
I ain't perfect, but I'm worth it
Got my word give you what it is that you deserve
Hey girl (hey girl) I hope you're ready for love
I'll be that dude that you want but I've gotta be honest
I ain't perfect, but I'm worth it
Got my word give you what it is
From day one girl I knew we had a connection
Don't wanna push up too soon (so there's no pressure)
We can take it slow (slow)
I'ma let you know (know)
What you've got right here is a man who could recognize a good girl when he sees her
One who knows all the ways how to please her
I'ma take you on another level you ain't ever been before
All you gotta do is just say the word
Hey girl (hey girl) I hope you're ready for us
I'll be that dude that you want but I've gotta be honest
I ain't perfect, but I'm worth it
Got my word give you what it is that you deserve
Hey girl (hey girl) I hope you're ready for love
I'll be that dude that you want but I've gotta be honest
I ain't perfect, but I'm worth it
Got my word give you what it is
Hey ladies, tell me where you at
If you're ready for love let me see you do that
Hey ladies, throw your hands up if you're ready for love
To all the fellas, tell her that you're ready for love
Hey girl (hey girl) I hope you're ready for us
I'll be that dude that you want but I've gotta be honest
I ain't perfect, but I'm worth it
Got my word give you what it is that you deserve
Hey girl (hey girl) I hope you're ready for love
I'll be that dude that you want but I've gotta be honest
I ain't perfect, but I'm worth it
Got my word give you what it is that you deserve
Hey girl
