What Happened to Chrissie Hynde and Where is She Now?

The singer tried to make bands both in the U.K. and in France to no avail, though she did perform alongside several outfits, including The Damned.

In 1978, Hynde formed the group The Pretenders with Pete Farndon, James Honeyman-Scott and Martin Chambers, and it was with this band that the singer was finally able to see some success.

The musician even worked closely with the show's creative team, and helped her onscreen counterpart Sydney Chandler transform into a younger version of herself.

"I read her book first, and the first meeting I didn't have any plans as far as questions, I just wanted to kind of take her in.
