Whigfield is an Italian dance act fronted by Danish singer, former model, songwriter and record producer Sannie Charlotte Carlson (born 11 April 1970), known by her various stage names including Whigfield, Sannie, or simply Naan. [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] She is best known for her 1993 single "Saturday Night", which became an international hit the following year.
Based in Italy at the time, Carlson worked with Italian producer Larry Pignagnoli and "Saturday Night" entered the top five in Italy. [1] [8] The single "Another Day" also managed to peak at number three in Italy as well.

On 16th February 2024, Carlson was filmed in Spain performing her best-known hit, with her voice sounding noticeably different from the one featured in the original recording, while the voice in the original recording sounds very similar to Ann Lee's live performances of the same song. The many rumours about Ann Lee being the voice behind Whigfield had been previously addressed by Italian record producer Mauro Farina, who had worked with Ann Lee on several occasions, when he stated, "she lent her voice for Whigfield and it was a worldwide success."

Carlson was born in Skælskør, Denmark. She spent several years in Africa as a child before returning to her native country. Before singing Carlson worked as a model and studied music. [1] Carlson played in a duo [7] before she met the producer Larry Pignagnoli and took on the name "Whigfield". [1] [18]
