Tiffany is the debut studio album by American recording pop singer Tiffany. Prior to signing a recording contract with MCA records in 1987, Tiffany Darwish had begun working with manager/producer George Tobin several years earlier, possibly with some of the tracks recorded as early when she was 12 years old. Initially, "Danny" was her first single released from her self-titled studio album; however the single failed to chart. To support the album and create a buzz for herself, Tiffany embarked on a shopping mall tour entitled “The Beautiful You: Celebrating the Good Life Shopping Mall Tour ‘87”. Tiffany’s tour included the singer performing in shopping malls across the United States; at first to small audiences but by the end to much larger crowds as her popularity grew.
As her popularity grew during her tour radio stations began to play Tiffany’s cover version of Tommy James & the Shondells hit "I Think We're Alone Now". The song was quickly released as the album’s second single; Darwish’s cover of "I Think We’re Alone Now" became the singer’s first No. 1 hit both in the United States and United Kingdom. The album’s follow-up single "Could've Been" became the singer’s second No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and her first on the Adult Contemporary chart. With the help of those two singles, the album climbed to No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Pop Albums chart; replacing Michael Jackson’s Bad. At the age of 16 years; Tiffany became the youngest female artist to earn a No.1 album and also the youngest to have two back-to-back No.1 singles. Tiffany’s rendition of the Beatles’ "I Saw Her Standing There" retitled "I Saw Him Standing There" provided a final hit from the album. The album was certified quadruple platinum by Recording Industry Association of America.
