America's Got Talent
Lela Brown
Artist on the Rise - Dec. 2013 5
Born to entertain, 10 year old Lela Brown has been in the professional spotlight since the precocious age of 2. A “quadruple threat” talent, Lela is a rare genuine child prodigy who possesses artistic gifts in dancing, rapping, writing, acting and modeling.
Between ages 2-4, Lela found no shortage of work in the modeling business, landing regional ad campaigns and corporate endorsements while continuing to nurture and refine her other talents through formal training in dance, voice and acting. At the age of 4, she was provided with a greater opportunity to expand her career which she took advantage of by booking countless runway shows.
At the age of 6, Lela was selected from thousands of submissions to be showcased as one of 16 models for the VH1 series: The Shot. Out of those 16 models, Lela’s photo was picked as “THE SHOT” by noted, world renowned, fashion photographer Russell James. Her selection was not a surprise to anyone who has seen Lela in action in front of a camera. She has a photogenic gift that is rare among models of any age that allows her to effortlessly transfer an astonishingly wide range of looks, personalities and emotions onto print.
By the age of 7, Lela was booked as a cover girl for a Nikon campaign. On the runway, she amazed former Super Model Janice Dickenson, sharing the catwalk and spotlight with Model / Actress Paris Hilton. She was also showcased in a nationally released book: American Character: A Photographic Journey, inspired by the USA Network’s Character’s Welcome brand which celebrates the diversity of people from all works of life. Most recently, she was selected by Child Model Magazine as the “2010-2011 Top Child Model of the Year”.
While having accomplished more than most kids much older hope for, at the age of 7, one might think Lela would have found satisfaction in her accolades; but this would prove to be furthest from the truth. One day, in route to hip hop class, Lela caught the eye of a noted music producer who happened to be in the area that day.
She immediately struck up conversation with the producer. Impressed by Lela’s confidence, beauty and charm, the producer opened the door of his studio to the young diva-in-training. Many productive studio sessions followed giving Lela an opportunity to work on discovering her voice as a music artist. A record contract is almost a certainty for this amazing little girl who also chooses to focus on her music career.
Currently, Lela is teamed up with Smart Boy Entertainment for career management and recording production.
