Stella (2000-2025) People said she was little, but her personality was so huge, I never saw her that way. She loved to snuggle on my lap, back at the neighborhood dogs on her little porch and ocassionally snack on cockroaches. She was my little princess and I'll always love her.
My song "My Electric Car' will, I believe, open the Instagram Live Awards show for Plug In America! It will be on 1 pm est and 10 am pst. "Just plug it in and go go go"
Renee Marie and her celebration of Harry Belafonte was superb and blew the roof off the Irvine Barclay Center tonight. Her 6 piece band were magical and the arrangements by Etienne Charles. Here I am with Renee and Barbara Brighton. #ReneeMarie, #JumpInLine
