F! F! F! (Fun Fact Friday!)

Hey World! Here are 5 things you may not have known about me 🙂 …

1. I remember the exact moment I knew I wanted to be a singer. I was in 2^nd grade, on the swing set with my best friend, Telesha, and we were singing Aaliyah’s “Back and Forth.” I always enjoyed singing for fun, but something hit me that day, and I realized this is something I wanna do forever.

2. The first time I flew on a plane was in 2007 – and I was going to another country! Talk about a lot to take in! (Matter of fact, it was Tish’s first time too & our seats were next to each other! Lol ) You would think I would’ve been panicking, but instead I was laughing to control my nervousness as we cruised up in the air! Lol I was a sophomore in college & taking a travel study course. *BTW: Brazil was awesome! I’d love to go back 🙂

3. I am finally caught up on ALL the books after The Coldest Winter Ever, by Sister Souljah. She had me after that first read. Lol I went on to read Midnight, A Gangster Love Story, Midnight and The Meaning of Love, and finally A Deeper Love Inside (The Porsche Santiaga Story) – brilliant! I am in love with all of her characters! The author really does a great job of bringing them to life. The stories are fiction, but very much “non-fiction” because it’s real life scenarios. I learn a lot about different countries, cultures & even find myself reflecting on my own life. Yes – her stories are that deep!

4. I am going to audition for ABC’s new show, “Rising Star” and would love ya’ll help! Please go to www.iamarisingstar.com and nominate me! Also….

5. Tha Music Factory has finally aired! That’s right – I’m dancing on TV! Lol The show airs Saturday mornings @ 11:30AM on MyATL (and late Friday nights @ 2AM). What to expect? Dancing, new music, videos, special guests/performances, & hot topics of the day. Spread the word & watch! www.ThaMusicFactory.com

Thanks for reading & for your support! Love ya’ll and have a fantastic weekend. Thank God it’s Friday! 😉

Love,

Ashleyyy

MONDAY MADNESS – Live shows, Tha Music Factory & Nightmares?!

I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend! Mine was pretty cool. Let me fill you in!…

Last week I had another performance – it was a blast! I performed at The Music Room for the first time here in ATL, for the ATL UpNext Artist Showcase. There was a variety of artists & a panel who gave each of us feedback. [I love feedback!] So I sang Bruno Mars’ “When I Was Your Man” for the first time, and switched up the lyrics. Following the cover song, I performed my latest single, “Find Me”. The crowd’s response was so warm 🙂 The energy exchange was perfect guys lol 🙂 Great night! Looking forward to the next show!

Saturday I had another filming for ‘Tha Music Factory’ – which will be premiering next month! I’m one of the dancers on the show. I love it! We just freestyle all day! Lol But it’s also a great learning experience – you get to see how things run on set of a show, watch the hosts do their thing, and meet new upcoming artists who also perform. It’s also important for me as a dancer to step outside my comfort zone, and be creative – there is no switching of the songs if we don’t like it, so we just gotta be ready to dance when the next song plays! Lol I strive to make sure I don’t move the same way each time – it’s challenging! YES to exploring movement! – Always.

[From top right, clockwise – 1.) A1 Supergroup performed their single, “Turn Up Everywhere We Go” – I LOVE that song! 2.) Dancers & Deb Atney (Wocka Flocka’s mother), from Love & Hip Hop, gave some great feedback on set. 3.) Blue Kimble, one of the show’s hosts! 4.) Group pic with some of the dancers/models. 5.] The show’s logo!]

FUN FACT FOR THE DAY- For those of you who don’t know, I’m a big dreamer. (And I don’t mean just in my waking life lol) But every night I lay down to sleep, I DREAM – and I remember EVERYTHING! Sometimes I wish I could record what I see and watch it on film with others! My dreams are much exaggerated, eventful, includes family/friends (sometimes celebs), and tend to be about issues I deal with or think about when awake. Some are even reoccurring and do a great job of getting my attention. That’s powerful to me; so I make it my duty to take some time to analyze them.

My sister referred me to a great website: DreamMoods.com – I found it to be very insightful! So if you’re like me, and want to know more about dreams and their significance, read about them! You may enjoy this site too – I’m sure all things don’t apply, but that’s for you to figure out 🙂 have fun & have a FANTASTIC week!

Love,

It’s time for FUN FACT FRIDAY! OW! =)

It’s the end of the month and time to give you 5 fun facts about myself!

1. I decided to STOP using HEAT on my hair for a while. I haven’t used my blow dryer in over a month! (I’m proud of myself guys lol!) I’ve been reading up on natural hair care tips & watching YouTube tutorials. It’s always fun to experiment with different hairstyles, all while learning how your hair works.

2. I have been chosen to be a FEATURED DANCER on a new dance show in Atlanta – It’s a mix between Soul Train and 106 n Park! The show is called, “THA MUSIC FACTORY” and will be airing on MyATL in a few weeks! I’ll keep you guys posted! 🙂

3. So I ate at PAPPADEAUX for the first time yesterday! Am I late? lol I had the Seafood Platter and the best part was the BLUE CRAB CAKE, because I think it was stuffed with DRESSING! I don’t know, whatever it was was good – despite how scary the shell looked.

4. My GUILTY PLEASURE – Watching The WENDY WILLIAMS Show. I think Wendy is hilarious! I love how honest she is. But I could never have her job because I feel certain things should be kept to yourself, so that you don’t offend others. But overall, she does her job VERY well – always entertaining! (I secretly want to be a guest. lol)

5. My FAVORITE RAP SONG out right now would have to be Lil Wayne ft. 2 Chainz “RICH AS F*@K.” lol Whenever it plays on the radio, I Turn. It. Up! I LOVE that beat … maybe I’ll do a cover for it?!

Well that’s all for now folks, have a BEAUTIFUL weekend!
