Family
Background
Where were you born and grew up?
Monroe, Louisiana
Do you have siblings and are your parents
still alive?
Brandy has 2 brothers, and 1 sister. She is the baby of the family, and
as the baby, got away with everything. She was “daddy’s little
girl.” Both her parents are still alive.
What was your favourite thing to do/play
as a child?
Brandy loved her Barbies and baby dolls. She also loved bugging her older
siblings. Brandy also admitted to loving to spread Elmer’s glue
all over her hands, sticking them together, and then peeling it off. She
thought that was cool.
In high school, I would have been voted
most likely to…
Do something involving music.
Music background
Do you sing or play a musical instrument
(been in a choir or a band)?
Brandy attempted the clarinet in 6th grade, but didn’t like it.
She was in the Advanced Choir in school, and won many solo/ensemble metals
in competitions. Her singing range was from a Soprano I to an Alto I.
Who were your major musical influences
growing up and now?
Growing up: Whitney Houston and Aretha Franklin. Now: Martina McBride
and Celine Dion.
If you could play only one style of music,
what would it be and why?
Brandy had a hard time narrowing down this one between Dance Music and
Country. She decided on Country, because of the great lyrics and meaning
of the songs.
The Real World
Are you married or in a serious relationship?
If so, how long?
Brandy has been married to Jimmy (the Cajun…lol) for 4 years in
October. They met through Jessika.
Do you have children? If so, how many
and ages?
Brandy and Jimmy have 1 beautiful daughter, Brenna, who will be 3 years
old in July. (You can usually hear the very vocal Brenna on Brandy’s
streams…LOL.)
What do you do for a living?
Brandy has the tough job of domestic technician. She is a wife and mother,
which is definitely a full-time job and a half!!! She also has a CNA degree.
What do you do for enjoyment, other than
chatting and streaming?
Brandy collects Dolphins (OMG…you should have
seen us having to tear her out of the Souvenir Shop in Gulf Shores…Dolphins
galore!!!!) She also writes poetry, paints (watercolors), and loves anything
to do with the water. Her favorite artist is Vincent Van Gogh.
Miscellaneous
If you could sit down to dinner with anyone,
alive or dead, who would it be and why?
Marie LeVeaux, because she’s a cool and interesting person to learn
about, and I would love to hang out with her.
Tonight you can do anything you want (no
money/geographic restrictions), what would you do?
Take a trip to Scotland and Ireland, to find out about my ancestors, and
because I just think it would be the prettiest place in the world to me.
What is your personal philosophy on life
(1 or 2 sentences):
Carpe Diem (Seize the Day). OR… Get Yours
and Screw the Rest!!!! LOL
Brandy, please tell us about the very
special relationship/friendship you share with Jessika (LiquidFrog25).
“Jess and I met in Summer School in 1993,
12 years ago. We have been best friends ever since. Jess is like my long
lost sister. She’s my family, and not to take anything away from
my love and relationship with Jimmy, but the closest thing to a soul-mate
I’ll ever have.”
Special Note From Teresa:
I had the privilege to
interview, and hang out with Brandy in person. The YaYa’s (and YoYo),
Brandy (LadyDNoctem), Jessika (LiquidFrog25), Jim (RapierEdge), and myself
(Trees) got together in Gulf Shores, Alabama the last weekend of April.
It was a lot of fun (even though it stormed on us), and wonderful to meet
roomies who have become such good friends. Dawn (Jewel), you were sorely
missed, sis!!!
