I love 'South Pacific.' It's got beautiful music. But there have been so many, you know, renditions of this in high school or college productions.
My mother had me when she was 16, and that was an issue that had to be dealt with. She grew up in a very religious background, and there was a lot of discussion of what they should do with this unborn child. But here I am, and thank goodness.
The first music that came to my ear was gospel... I used to sing 'Amazing Grace' with a very strong southern accent and a vibrato already at five years old.
Show biz! It's definitely not for sissies.
I've been singing Rodgers and Hammerstein all my life.
