Тексты песен RENEE OLSTEAD
Информация о артисте
Американская актриса и певица Renee Olstead (полное имя Rebecca Renee Olstead) родилась 18 июня 1989 года в городе Кингвуд, штат Техас.
Уже в 8 лет Рене начинает сниматься в фильмах и рекламных роликах. С 2002 по 2006 года она участвовала в популярном комедийном телесериале "Still Standing", а в 2006 снялась в эпизодической роли в фильме "Из 13 в 30" ("13 Going On 30"). В июле 2008 года увидел свет телесериал "The Secret Life of the American Teenager as Madison".
Наряду с актерской карьерой, Рене отлично проявляет себя как певица. В 2002 году вышел альбом "By Request", который имел ограниченную дистрибуцию и скромный тираж. Поэтому полноценным дебютом все-таки следует считать альбом 2004 года под названием "Renee Olstead", выпущенный лейблом "Warner Brothers". В этот альбом вошли джазовые и поп стандарты, а Ренее, несмотря на юный возраст, проявила себя как очень зрелый исполнитель. Крупным успехом для Ренее стало выступление в берлине в рамках фестиваля "Live 8", который состоялся 2 июля 2005 года. В том же году она приняла участие в записи альбома знаметого трубача Криса Ботти (Chris Botti) под названием "To Love Again: The Duets". В 2006 году вышел DVD Криса "Live with Orchestra and Special Guests", где Рене выступила в качестве специального гостя.
Вокальный стиль и талант Рене нередко сравнивают с такими величайшими джазовыми исполнительницами как Элла Фицджезальд (Ella Fitzgerald) и Сара Воган (Sarah Vaughan).
По официальной версии, музыкальный талант Рене открыл продюссер и композитор Дэвид Фостер, известный по работе с такими артистами как Мадонна (Madonna), Лара Фабиан (Lara Fabian), Майкл Джексон (Michael Jackson), Джош Гробан (Josh Groban) и еще с более чем полусотней мировых звезд первой величины. Он же и продюссировал альбом "Renee Olstad" в 2004 году. В поддержку альбома состоялось несколько совместных выступлений Рене и Дэвида Фостера, в частности, на "Oprah Winfrey Show".
Релиз следующего альбома, продюссером которого так же выступил Дэвид Фостер, первоначально был назначен на 2005 год, однако, в последствии, выход альбома неоднократно откладывался. Релиз альбома "Skylark" состоялся 27 января 2009 года. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.

Rebecca Renee Olstead (born June 18, 1989) is an American actress and singer. Active since childhood as an actress, she is best known for her roles in the TV sitcoms Still Standing as Lauren Miller and The Secret Life of the American Teenager as Madison Cooperstein. In addition, she has recorded five studio albums, primarily of jazz music.
Renee developed a great love for music at an early age and honed her voice by singing
along with the radio. Before long she was entering talent contests and appearing in
local musical productions. Her aspirations for stardom were documented on video and
became the subject of two E! television documentaries,
"The Making of a Child Star" and "The Journey Continues".
In 1995, Renee appeared in her first commercial, the award winning ad for Levi Jeans.
In 1998 she did a Segento Cheese commercial.
She made her first foray in TV in 1995 in "Streets Of Laredo".
In 1998, Renee appeared in the episode "Doodlebug" in "Touch By An Angel".
In 1999, she was seen in two shows, "Chicken Soup For The Soul" and "Providence".
In 1999, Renee’s first major motion picture roles were "The Insider",
starring Al Pacino and Russell Crowe, and "End Of Days" with
Arnold Schwarzenegger. And, in 2000, she appeared in "Space Cowboys".
In 2002, she had her first major role in the CBS comedy "Still Standing", a four year run.
But, by 2002, Renee’s second career, her singing career, began to take shape.
After she saw the movie "Pleasantville", she fell in love with Etta James’s "At Last",
which began a love affair with the music of Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald,
Anita O’Day and the Great American Songbook.
Then Renee was able to perform with Eddie Reed’s Swing Band playing LA area clubs.
In September 2002, she released "By Request" to commemorate her club performances.
"At Last" being one of the tracks.
Renee gained the attention of Grammy Award winning producer David Foster
and subsequently signed a contract with the Warner Records label.
In 2003, 13 year old Renee performed at the Playboy Jazz Festival singing
"At Last" to an amazed jazz audience, who gave Renee a standing ovation.
Bill Cosby, whose jazz band backed Renee quipped that “she’s only 13
and knows only one song”.
Finally, in May 2004, all elements of Renee’s career came together.
On the "Still Standing" final episode, of the second season, she performed "Summertime",
in a dream sequence, the first track on her self-titled CD "Renee Olstead",
produced by David Foster, released that month.
The release started Renee on a whirlwind promotional tour starting with
the "Today Show" and "Jazz At Lincoln Center Spring Gala" in NYC.
Montreux Jazz Festival, as part of a European tour, David Letterman and
finally Oprah ended a busy 2004. Renee’s CD was #5 on the
Billboard Jazz Chart, for 2004, after many rave reviews.
In 2004, Renee recorded two songs for movie soundtracks.
She recorded "Merry Christmas In Love" for the Italian movie "Christmas In Love"
and "A Love That Will Last", a track on her CD, was used in "Princess Diary 2".
Also, in the summer of 2004, Renee’s next film "13 Going On 30" was released.
During and after the end of the "Still Standing" run, in the Spring of 2006,
Renee continued to perform her music around the world.
She performed in numerous charity events in the US.
Renee again toured Europe, this time with B.B. King, performed in Live 8,
in Berlin, and with Chris Botti and at the "Unite The Stars" charity event,
in South Africa.
Performance highlights include the "28th Gift Of Life Celebration" hosted
by George Lopez, with Renee performing "Midnight Man" with David Foster,
in 2007. The Java Jazz Festival, in 2008, "My Baby Just Cares For Me",
where Renee received the International Jazz Talent Award, and the "Hit Man:
David Foster And Friends" tribute to David Foster with Renee performing Through The Fire, in 2008.
In 2008, she recorded her third movie soundtrack with "Ain’t we Got Fun"
for the movie "Kit Kittredge: An American Girl".
TV came back in the picture, in 2008, as Renee was cast in the series
"The Secret Life Of The American Teenager" as Madison.
In the final episode, of the second season, again her two careers came together,
as Madison sang "Fly Me To The Moon" and
"Someone To Watch Over Me" at a wedding reception.
