It is unclear what specifically happened to Five Star, as the group has had a long and varied history. Here are some key events and updates on the group:
- Five Star is a British pop group formed in 1983 and comprising siblings Stedman, Lorraine, Denise, Doris, and Delroy Pearson.
- The group had several hits in the 1980s and early 1990s, including "System Addict" and "Rain or Shine".
- In 2001, a new Five Star single, "Funktafied," peaked at No. 99 on the US Hot R&B chart, but the accompanying new album Eclipse was not a success and is the groups final album to date.
- Five Star returned to the UK in 2002 as a trio of Stedman, Denise, and Lorraine to perform on various tours, including the Here and Now nostalgia tour.
- In 2005, "System Addict" was re-recorded and re-released.
- Five Star were booked to perform a gig at Butlins in October 2006, in which all five members were billed. However, three impersonators were used to mime to backing tapes.
- Denise Pearson said in 2007 that she was working on solo material, resulting in the release of her debut single in 2009.
- All five siblings performed at the 2012 Rewind Festivals on 21 July at Scone Palace, Perth, Scotland, and on 18 August in Henley-on-Thames.
- The bands father and manager, Buster Pearson, died in October 2012.
- Lorraine Pearson, a former member of the group, revealed in a 2018 interview that there had been feuds and blazing rows within the group, including with lead singer Denise, who appeared on BBCs The Voice in 2012.
- As of 2019, the group has not released any new music or announced any new tours or performances.
In summary, Five Star had a successful career in the 1980s and early 1990s, but has not released any new music since 2001 and has not performed as a full group since 2006. There have been some tensions and conflicts within the group over the years, but the siblings have also reunited for various performances and events.
