Born
July 10, 1980, in Dallas, Texas, this sexy 5' 3" recording
star and singer displays a hard core attitude in her performances.
Jessica has a younger sister
named Ashlee. Her father, who is a psychologist, manages her
career, and her mother designs her wardrobe and assists in
the business affairs. Jessica first developed and nurtured
her talent in the local Baptist church, where her father also
works as the congregation's youth minister.
While at church camp,
at the age of 13, Jessica sang Whitney Houston's "I Will
Always Love You" and an arrangement of "Amazing
Grace".

One of the camp's visitors,
a gentleman who was launching a gospel record label saw great promise
and profits in her voice. Jessica began to tour with Christian youth
conferences with tunes like "True Love Waits", sometimes
entertaining audiences of 20,000 people.
Jessica is boldly traveling
down several fresh new musical avenues. In addition to offering
more of the lush, passionate ballads that have become her signature,
she has effectively expanded her creative styles. This includes
ebullient rhythm pop and sultry R&B and is a collection of funk-fortified
songs and sophisticated contemporary ballads. Jessica has the finesse
and confidence of a well seasoned performer.
Jessica says she is part
of a positive new breed of teenager and youths who welcome responsibility
and propriety. In school, Jessica hung with a crowd that was popular
and respected, and she was elected Homecoming Queen two years in
a row at J.J. Pierce High School.
Jessica's relationship with
her fans is of tremendous importance to her. "They keep me
going. They inspire me. I do all I can to keep in close touch with
the fans who support my music, whether it be via my shows or on
the Internet. The energy I get from them is extraordinary."
Jessica states, "That's
what I really wanted to come across on these songs, confidence".
Jessica notes, "I wanted to show that with that inner strength
and inner light, nothing is impossible." That said, Jessica
admits that she does occasionally enjoy flexing a little external
heat... even if it's completely innocent. "There's a cut on
the album, 'Hot Like Fire', that I think will take people by surprise",
she says of the self-assured hip-hop-flavored cut produced by Cory
Rooney. "It's a hard-core 'attitude' song. You might not even
recognize my voice at first. It's totally raw and intense. It's
a shake-your-hips kind of song. I love it."
