Super Star
MELBA
MOORE
reminds me of the constellations of stars . Melba never misses a beat from shining so brightly as she brings to the world spectacular performances globally . This trailblazer is like the Sirius Star , the blue star located next to the Sun and is considered the brightest star in the sky ! ( The North Star is ranked the 48th brightest star .) If I were allowed to create my own universe of time and travel into the future of her legacy ; I could imagine attending an outdoor festival on a very hot summer night where they are speaking to all Diaspora cultures of people during a Black History Month celebration . I could imagine the host saying to everyone to point their finger towards the sky . The announcer would share the history of the star called Sirius . They would talk about trials and tribulations and how this star was able to maintain its award-winning brightness over the years . I can also imagine hearing the people in the crowd saying “ WOW ’’! Next the announcer mentions to the people , this is the reason why we renamed the star Sirius to “ The Marvelous Melba Moore ‘’ because her name will reign forever ! Melba has written her own name among the stars of legends .
Recording artist , Multi Grammy Award Winner , Stage Actress , and Tony Award Winner are just a few powerful words we used to help describe her miraculous works . The word is out ! Melba is setting the media world on fire again and can be seen on the “ Tamara Hall show and so many more broadcast television stations . For that reason , we reached out
to her publicist Mr . Angelo Ellerbee to request an interview . Its Black History month and SapphirEmerald Magazine truly believes in educating and sharing historical moments to be remembered for a lifetime .
