The Score Magazine | Siren on Song
Once she fell into a 14 foot
long pit. I guess you could call
that a BIG mistake! Oops! “I
wasn’t supposed to fall in it, so
I didn’t have a safety harness or
anything. The camera was rolling,
so they still have the footage. At
the time, it was a bit of a scare
for everyone, but now, it’s just
a joke, with them threatening
to release the footage just to
embarrass me.”
There’s more! “I’ve also gone to a recording with a drip in my hand.
I’d been hospitalized because I was throwing up constantly, but I was
determined to go for the recording, so my mom force-fed me a couple
of Marie biscuits, and I made it.” Talk about will power!
This Introvert admits that as far as her romantic life is concerned, she
hasn’t experienced any cheesy lines simply because she comes off as
a little bit intimidating. Not that she intends to! (So buck up guys!)
And as far as boyfriend material is concerned, this closeted romantic
seems pretty idealistic. “INTEGRITY- not just in a potential boyfriend,
but in any person who is a part of my life.”
There is a long way to go and as far as future plans are concerned
there is no reason to worry. An ultimate believer in destiny, she might
not be counting the stars but feels there is no point in anticipating
too much. She loves Jazz – “In Jazz there is such immense, intricate
structure holding all that freedom together; like a cobweb holding its
own. I’d love to release an album of my own songs. I’ve written and
recorded about 8 already. I’ve written about love, loss, flirty songs,
nightmarish ones, songs that border on philosophy. I’d like to think my
take on things is very different. And I would title the album ‘Insoma-
nia’, the spelling is deliberate, I assure you.” Sounds a little crazy but
she’s forgiven!
And who does she owe all her success to? Her parents. Sweet, simple
and honest.
Here’s hoping that this destiny’s child gets what she deserves.
