Her. Well, I wanted to be Janet Jackson as a kid, and I never really lost my love for performing, even though I don't do it any more. But, after 5 years of jazz, tap and voice lessons, I'm rusty, but I'm still ready. :)

Did I dance as well? Hell yeah! Did I sing as well? Well, Janet is no Jennifer Hudson, let's face it, so that part was never hard. I had a bit of a Stacy Lattisaw thing going on.

So why'd I stop? 3 words: married with children.

Not that I don't love my kids, I love them like crazy - they are the best people I know, besides my mother.

But I have to confess, given the opportunity to go back - to not listen to my unsupportive ex-husband and just go for it, I'd go for it. I might not have been the next Janet Jackson, but at least I could say I didn't give up.

Meanwhile, I have a lot of local shows under my belt that I am still proud of.

Music is a mean but lovable mistress, I tell you, but I love her, even when she kicks me in the ass.
