Type: Trivia Card | Deck: Pop Queens of the 80s | Rarity: Rare

Tiffany Darwisch (born 1971) achieved pop stardom through an innovative mall tour strategy in 1987. Her cover of "I Think We're Alone Now" reached #1 on Billboard Hot 100 in November 1987, displacing Michael Jackson's "Bad," making her the youngest female artist to top charts with a debut album.

Key facts:
- "Beautiful You: Celebrating the Good Life Shopping Mall Tour '87" visited 10 malls, bringing free concerts to teenagers at shopping centers
- Self-titled debut album stayed #1 for two weeks, went quadruple platinum; second #1 hit "Could've Been" followed in early 1988
- Legal battle with management involved her mother siding against her; resolved when Tiffany turned 18
- Media manufactured rivalry with Debbie Gibson (both teenage redheads); Gibson wrote own songs while Tiffany worked with outside producers
- Original "I Think We're Alone Now" by Tommy James and the Shondells (1967)
- Mall tour strategy now studied as guerrilla marketing case study
