Juliet Richardson is a singer and songwriter, born in 1980 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and raised in New Jersey.

Her recording debut was in 2000 as the singer for 1 plus 1. Their single "Cherry Bomb" from the Elektra Records album of the same title reached the Billboard magazine Top 40 Club Play Chart in 2001, as well as the Top 50 Dance chart.

Despite the initial promise of success, Richardson expressed displeasure with the marketing direction for 1 plus 1, and the act was recreated as alternative rock band MNQNN (pronounced "mannequin"). This music, differing greatly from the prior 1 plus 1 work, prompted Elektra to release them from their recording contract. MNQNN played rock clubs for a couple of years before the band went on an indefinite hiatus in June 2003.

Richardson persuaded Josh Deutsch of Virgin Records to sign her to that label. She reconnected with Steve Sydelink who had worked in her bands and was the drummer in Madonna's band.

In 2004, Richardson returned to major label recording, after Sydelink introduced her to record producer Stuart Price (also known as Jacques Lu Cont) under the name "Juliet". The album resulting from this project, Random Order, is scheduled for release in the middle of 2005; reviews of advance copies have been well received by critics.

The song also reached the top 30 of the UK singles chart in April 2005. She scored a second number one on the US dance chart in August with "Ride the Pain.
