How was your group formed? Or
how did you get into the business?
Yvette:
I was discovered at a karaoke contest.
Someone spotted me, offered me a record deal and the rest is
history…Sounds easy but it was --still is -- a long , hard and rocky
climb to the top.

What are your ultimate goals and/or
dreams?

I’d be cheesy to say “ I want to
win a Grammy someday” but it’s true.

What advice do you have for other upcoming
artists?

tell you otherwise.

Who are your biggest influences?
(Musical and/or non-musical)
Yvette:
My mom. She was a jazz singer before she married my dad and I
guess she answers your 5th question as well because she also
inspires me.

What inspires you?
Yvette:
My mom and my henney!

What are some of the biggest challenges
that you have faced?
Yvette:
Discrimination.
Lack of opportunities. It’s
quite difficult to make it in the music world but it’s so much tougher
to try and make it and also be Asian American.
People have a harder time grasping that idea.

I’m happy to say I do!

What are your favorite movies/TV shows?

I’m a sucker for romance so any sappy
love story would be it…I enjoy anything mysterious like Unsolved
Mysteries and I like detective shows like CSI, but I’m also a big fan
of soaps like All My Children & One Life To Live.

What are your favorite foods?
Yvette:
Definitely Italian!
I love pasta but Japanese comes a close second.
