B. Audrey Faith Perry, 21 September, 1967, Jackson, Mississippi, USA. Raised in the small town of Star, Mississippi, USA, the 90s country singer Faith Hill was singing at family gatherings from the age of three. She was influenced by Reba McEntire and formed her first band when she was 17 years old, performing at local rodeos.

At age 11, she again tried for "MMC" (1989) and this time made it as a mouseketeer along side many stars of today (Justin Timberlake and J.C. Chasez of N*Sync…

Here is some info about J.Lo: Jennifer's mother, a kindergarten teacher, and her father, a computer analyst, nurtured her ambitions early on by enrolling the young star-to-be in dance lessons. It was as a dancer that her career really started: she started in musicals and soon graduated to the small screen. Lopez later beat out thousands in a national dance in order to earn herself a place as one of Rosie Perez's Flygirls on the '80s comedy show In Living Colour. Lopez was able to turn her success as a Flygirl into more television work, and appeared in a series of new but short-lived sitcoms. Despite the setbacks, she was still able to move on to better things-this time …

Biography from VH1.com English singer Joss Stone was just 16 when she emerged on the pop/rock scene in 2003. Ready to take on the pop domination of Britney and Christina with a sound wise beyond her teenage years, Stone positioned herself among the more established and credible artists (Norah Jones, Jill Scott, Nikka Costa) reigning adult alternative pop/rock. Born Joscelyn Eve Stoker in 1987, the sun-kissed blonde darling grew up listening to American soul and R&B. Aretha Franklin was a favorite and in time, Stone realized that she possessed an impressive throaty vocal style with both depth and emotion, much like her idols. In 2002, Stone took a chance.

Mya Harrison Where you’ve seen her: Since releasing her debut album in 1998, Mya has morphed from sweet to supersexy. She slipped into a corset for “Lady Marmalade” and even less in the movie musical Chicago. Mother of all turnoffs: “When I did the ‘Lady Marmalade’ video, it was strange because my mom was there, and I’m standing around with a whip in my hand and my crotch in the crowd’s face. In fact, I’m pretty sure I would’ve gotten a little nastier and a little grittier if my mom hadn’t been there. Which could’ve been why she was there.” The bottom line: “My outfit in Chicago was really skimpy. Let’s just say every girl dancing had to get a Brazilian wax. I’ve d…

Shakira Where you’ve seen her: Where haven’t you seen her? Other than being on just about every magazine cover in the last couple of months, you can catch her on her English-language album debut, Laundry Service. The bottom line: “You have to do everything you can to make your butt stand out. It’s almost a requirement. But for me, I think I have enough to sit on, so it’s fine. I like it as it is. But it’s also a bad thing, because I have to work to keep it hard.” Latin fire: “I tend to be a little bit jealous. I have to control myself sometimes. I think maybe that’s a Latin thing.” Mission impossible: “I’m no expert on men. In fact, I don’t know a single woman who…
