Formed by Desmond Child, Maria Vidal, Myriam Valle and Diana Grasselli, Desmond Child & Rouge originally signed to Capitol Records and recorded two stylistically different albums that were both released the same year. The self-titled DESMOND CHILD & ROUGE features the Billboard Top 40 hit “Our Love Is Insane” which launched a national tour playing every major city. Their second album, RUNNERS IN THE NIGHT, followed just six months later and culminated in a musical guest appearance on Saturday Night Live.

Desmond Child & Rouge garnered a cult following that included George Harrison, Paul Stanley, John Belushi, Bill Murray, among many others. One of their biggest fans, Gilda Radner, invited the three women of “Rouge,” Maria Vidal, Myriam Valle and Diana Grasselli, to be in her debut Broadway show, Gilda Live From New York produced and directed by Lorne Michaels, where they are also highlighted in film director Mike Nichols’ acclaimed documentary of the show, Gilda Live.
