If you were stranded on  an Island, what are 3 things you cannot do without?  
1. A BOOK- KNOWLEDGE IS POWER AND I WOULD CONTINUOUSLY NEED TO CHALLENGE MY MIND AND SOUL.
2. MY IPOD- I WOULD DEFINITELY NEED MUSIC TO DANCE AND TO KEEP THE SPIRIT ALIVE.
3. A PAIR OF HEELS- FOR THOSE SPECIAL NIGHT OUTS... AND TO FEEL SEXY SOME DAYS.  IMAGINE WHAT THE ISLAND ANIMALS WOULD THINK!? :) 

What are 3 words that best describe you?  PASSIONATE, HARD WORKING, SASSY

If you could be a Disney Princess who would it be?
OHHH- GOOD QUESTION... I LOVE PRINCESSES :)  CINDERELLA.  A PRINCE WHO SEARCHES THE LAND TO GIVE YOU BACK YOUR LOST SHOE... NOW THAT'S A MAN.

What’s the one song that makes you just want to break out and dance when you hear it?
HARD QUESTION AS THERE ARE SO MANY AMAZING SONGS.  BUT ONE OF MY CLASSIC FAVORITES IS "THAT'S THE WAY LOVE GOES" BY JANET JACKSON.  SUCH A COOL, SEXY SONG.

Do you sing in the shower?
RARELY... BUT I DO DANCE!

Is there anything fun or embarrassing things you’ve never told anyone that you would like to share with DivaGirl readers?
MY ENTIRE LIFE IS "FUN-" SO THERE'S NOTHING NEW TO SHARE IN THAT CATEGORY.  "EMBARRASSING?"  WELL,  AS GOOD AT "SEXY" DANCING I MAY BE, I'M EVEN BETTER AT "UGLY" DANCING, A DANCE STYLE CREATED BY MY GOOD FRIEND, CARLA. A SELECTED FEW HAVE BEEN BLESSED TO EXPERIENCE IT... HAHA.
