They offered to put my through classes and I declined. Around that time I was approached you a well known music producer in Miami. He asked me if I could sing I told him “in my car” he asked me to come to the studio and sing a Selena song so he could hear my vocals and see what we could do. I went in I sang and decided it was too much work. Same time frame I was a guest on Ricki Lake, Jenny Jones and other day time talk shows. I was published in quite a few mainstream magazines like The Source, Muscular Development, Men’s Health, Vice magazine, Maximum Magazine. I had my own comic, I was made into an action figure and I was a character in GTA. No one was paying so I quit pursuing mainstream. I auditioned as the lead for a Vegas show at the Luxor. I was dancing with a snake and ended the night in a champagne bowl. I turned down the opportunity because I didn’t want wet hair 6x a week. I was a Las Vegas showgirl at the Sahara before it closed. They say you should never look back with regret, right. I don’t regret any decisions I’ve made with my life but sometimes I feel like 🤦🏽‍♀️. I’m grateful for the crazy life I’ve lived, I’ve had so many opportunities but I’m glad I’m here. I’ve traveled, I’ve met some incredible people, I could tell you so many crazy stories. Ending up here has healed my soul. When I was in my 20’s I partied very hard. I drank a lot and I tried to take my life more times than I like to recall. I was very successful but extremely depressed. The pressure of being someone I wasn’t was too much. Missed opportunity sometimes lead you to your most authentic self. We could live the “what could have been” but trust me your not missing anything. 🙏🏽 Trust the journey my love! Appthecarybymariza.com link in my bio ❤️」7月19日 8時46分
