Hello my name is…
Amanda Diva

I was raised in…
LA and Orlando by a Grenadian mother who says I’m from another planet altogether!

The reason that you’re reading about me is…
Because I’m a busy chick! On the music side, I’ve just dropped my FreEP Spandex, Rhymes, and Soul available for free online and am also featured on Q-Tip’s “ManWoman Boogie” off his new album The Renaissance. On the web/tv side, I am a commentator on VH1 and produce two comedy web shows, “Diva Diva Ya’ll” and “DivaSpeak TV.”

Right now I’m working on…
Taking the above to the world!

But I’d rather be…
On Grand Anse beach in Grenada.

My most prized possessions are…
My paintings, my iPod, and my common sense.

But I’d give it all away for…
My mom to not have to work anymore.

The first thing I do in the morning is…
Check my blackberry.

The last thing I do at night is…
Read.

My momma always said…
“You neva know what people are smoking.”

I love it when people…
Get the joke.

I hate it when people…
Are inconsiderate.

If you ever see me walking down the street…
Holla “what it do Deev?!”

My most notable run-in with the law…
Was getting caught with a bottle of Smirnoff in one hand and Peach Schnapps in the other by campus police sophomore year in college. They let me slide :)

If I had to say sorry it would be because…
I was wrong.

I get real aggro when…
People disrespect my time.

The last time I swore I’d never drink was after a night of…
Grenadian rum (whoo that was a doozie).

Future projects and plans…
Keep the music growing and expanding using my latest release, Spandex, Rhymes, and Soul. Bringing my web shows “DivaSpeak TV” (youtube.com/divaspeaktv) and “Diva Diva Ya’ll” (karmalooptv.com) to wider audiences. Doing more art shows (I paint) and doing more tv.

And before I leave I’d like to give a shout out too…
All the indie artists charting their own course and the fans who keep us pushing forward when the path gets hella tough.
