Stedman Pearson, the eldest sibling of the British pop group Five Star, has died at age 60 due to diabetes complications. The group, managed by their father Buster, gained fame in the mid-1980s alongside comparisons to the Jackson 5. Stedman contributed to songwriting and costume design, and after initial struggles, Five Star enjoyed considerable success with hit singles like 'All Fall Down' and 'System Addict.' The band's dynamic showcased the talents of all siblings, marking a significant era in pop music history.
Buster acted as manager, originally planning to create a group with his three daughters, but was encouraged by his wife to include sons Stedman and Delroy.
After releasing a couple of unsuccessful singles in 1984, Five Star reached the UK Top 20 in 1985 with 'All Fall Down' and 'Let Me Be the One'.
