Along with Janet Jackson and Madonna, she ranks as the most nominated female artists ever for the MTV Video Music Awards. In 1987, Watley won the Grammy Award for "Best New Artist," right after her success of her first two hits, "Looking For a New Love" and "Don't You Want Me."

Watley began her career as a dancer on the show "Soul Train," when she was only 14. Recognized as a trendsetter, her style was copied by teenage girls all over the United States. As Watley released hit after hit later in career, she also did high fashion layouts in such high profile magazines as "Harper's Bazaar," "Vogue," and "Essence." Her ability to combine music and fashion has remained an inspiration for many artists today such as Rihanna and Beyonce.
