Duffy est une Actrice Britannique née le 23 juin 1984 à Bangor (Royaume-uni)
Duffy (born 23 June 1984 as Aimee Ann Duffy) is a Welsh singer, songwriter and actress.
Born in Bangor, Gwynedd, Wales, her music career began when she was introduced to Jeannette Lee of Rough Trade Records, which led to her signing a recording contract with A&M Records in 2007.
Following the release of the singles "Rockferry" (2007) and "Mercy" (2008), the latter which reached singles charts worldwide, Duffy released her 2008 debut album Rockferry. The album entered the UK Album Chart at number one, and became the best-selling album in the United Kingdom in 2008 with 1.68 million copies sold. The album was certified several times Platinum and sold over 7 million copies worldwide, spawning further successful singles. With "Mercy", Duffy became the first Welsh woman to achieve number-one on the UK Singles Chart since 1983, while Rockferry was awarded the Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album amongst further nominations at the 51st Grammy Awards. In 2009, she won three Brit Awards for British Breakthrough, Best British Female and Best British Album.
In 2010, Duffy released her second album Endlessly. Following its relative critical and commercial failure, in February 2011, Duffy announced she would take an extended hiatus from music before beginning work on her third album, and made her acting debut in the film Patagonia. She has since appeared in, and contributed music to, the films Secret Love and Legend (both 2015), the latter in which she played American singer Timi Yuro.
In September 2008, Duffy mentioned that she was "on the borderline of a nervous breakdown" because of the pressure that fame has brought her. She also said that she had considered becoming a recluse, but eventually decided against the idea for the sake of her fans. Although acknowledging that most people do mean well, she finds it "scary" when people recognise her in the street, and has been fearful of her image possibly changing the person she truly is.
Duffy's estimated fortune of £4 million placed her in 16th place in the 2009 Sunday Times listing of Great Britain's wealthiest young musicians.
Duffy dated Welsh International rugby star Mike Phillips from September 2009 to May 2011.
On 3 October 2012, Duffy escaped from a fire in the rented penthouse apartment in which she was living, in Kensington, London.

Il y a bien longtemps, une force maléfique menaçait de se déchaîner et de raviver la guerre entre les puissances surnaturelles et l'humanité. Pendant plusieurs décennies, le chevalier Maître Gregory (Jeff Bridges) avait enfermé la redoutable et maléfique sorcière Mère Malkin (Julianne Moore). Mais elle s'est désormais échappée et cherche à se venger. Convoquant ses adeptes, Mère Malkin s'apprête à déverser sa terrible colère contre un monde qui ne s'y attend pas. Seul Maître Gregory peut encore s'y opposer. Au cours d'un affrontement mortel, Gregory se retrouve face à face avec une force maléfique qu'il craignait de voir resurgir un jour. Dès lors, il lui faut initier son nouvel apprenti, le septième fils d'un septième fils : Tom Ward (Ben Barnes), à combattre la pire magie noire de tous les temps - mais il doit le faire d'ici à la prochaine pleine Lune de Sang, alors que plusieurs années sont en général nécessaires pour accomplir une telle mission. Le dernier espoir de l'humanité tient dorénavant entre les mains de Thomas Ward.
