It's Brittany Murphy.

You know this how?

She's the voice behind one of the singing penguins. Prince and Brittany were the sole guests on a talk show together a couple years back. So... Prince and WB... back together again??

you guys are fuckin' with me right?

It was discussed over at HQ, so I checked on Wikipedia, and it states it there. So I'm not 100% sure but it seems correct to me.

Susann209 said:

Okie dokie.

Susann209 said:

Just out of curiosity I went to Wikipedia and I can't find anywhere that says that it is indeed Brittany Murphy on the song with Prince. She does have some songs for the film though. I also went to HQ and some guessed it was her, but j7 who is known to provide reliable info, never revealed the name of the girl on the track. He just says it's someone new (meaning not Tamar). I'm not trying to be a jerk. I just think it's up to all of us here to provide as accurate info as possible. If you can point me to where it says that on Wikipedia I'll edit my post!

Take care.

As I said I'm not 100% sure on this. It just lists her singing some of the other songs so ???? maybe not.

Susann209 said:

OK. I just was curious if I was over looking something. Sometimes I do that.

It is not Brit Murphy.

Some1 brand spankin' new.

Who, who & who!

I know you know!

jseven said:

Can you not say who it is? I get that feeling. It's OK if you can't right now. I know you don't like to post info until you are sure you have the right info to post. I didn't think it was Brittany. That would be a totally weird collaboration. Is it someone we will have heard of or someone obscure? Sorry to be bugging you, but I am so excited!

thank god..

i heard it is Brenda "Bria" Fuentes who is a former stripper/model from Minnaepolis. she has been recording with him at the park for like 2 months now.

Sholt said:

Where did you hear this from? Man, if the rumours about him trying to pay strippers to stop dancing are true, then the man must surely have a love/hate relationship with strippers.

hokie1 said:

yeah no kidding!!! she is wellknown in the minneapolis area. she's 35 or something and has been trying to get a singing career going for a while because she worked with a couple other studios in town also. last i heard of her she was dating vin diesel in LA and recording out there but she ended up ditching the project because she didnt want to pay for hte studio. so nothing has ever come to light of what she recorded. i heard she can't reallly sing but she makes "friends" with thes tudio owners. i guess fake boobs always helps too!! there was a rumer fro a while that she was a guy in drag because she is over 6 feet tall but apparently she was married before so she must be a she.

Sholt said:

35! Wow, that's ancient for a Prince girl. Well, she fits one criteria that most have if she can't sing. I thought Vin Diesel dates Maria Menunos or whatever her name is. She is a correspondent for ET. Who knows if this is true, but I guess we'll see in due time. I googled Bria Fuentes and she has a "resume". Apparently she sang back up vocals on an Usher song.

hokie1 said:

that is a funny story. she auditioned to sing backup vocals for usher at flight tyme but they didn't like the sound of it after working with her for a long time. but somehow she ended up witha credit on the album still and she has been using that credit to get her foot in the door. she also did a song with jackie thomson from paisley park that is on an album somewhre. and vin deisel also dates that Liza hernandes girl so he gets around!

Sholt said:

If this is the woman in question, anyone interested can hear snippets of her vocals on a couple of songs ("Destiny" and "Baila") Bria Fuentes had on an "Unsigned Twin Cities" compilation (assuming you have Windows Media capability) at this link:

Whatever u think...is true.


I did say brand "spankin" new.


4get the songs, I would be looking 4 pics.

jseven said:

Got those too!

http://www.sasstudio.com/bria_f.htm#

she's from minnie? seems most the links about her are in spanish or something so I thought she was not from the USA. either way....yeah for the 35 year olds!

She's 6 feet tall?????

Could Bria be the tall brunette he was sighted with at...where was it again? Xenii? And by her last name I'm guessing she's Latina (or Hispanic I don't know the correct term)...weren't there rumors of him with a Latina when he was spotted near that art fair in Minneapolis?

If it is this Bria woman, what a contrast to Tamar...makes me think that this one might be more than just a platonic protege... By that I don't mean that it was because of Tamar's looks that the relationship was platonic...I mean that because of Bria's looks, her 'resume', (which isn't too heavy on singing), and based on the appearances of several of Prince's past flames/wives/whatevas, there may be more than mentoring going on.

All of this is pure speculation on my part, of course...

Susann209 said:

the link up tehre says 6'2" with size 11.5 feet to be exact

That was the "Ellen Show" that you speak of.

Still,...it doesn't prove anything about who the background singer is. I mentioned in another thread that it sounds like Sheila E.(especially on the part,"tonight we gonna jam from now until eternity").

Also, although the Brittany interview aired on the same show as the Prince one, her piece was filmed seperately earlier in the day. So when they say Prince is coming back out and she gets excited, it was pre-recorded and she was not there. We were there 4 the opening monologue and Prince's per4mances and interview segment only. I did not know they were scanning the crowd for auidence shots or I would have ducked. Blue eyes and Hustler hat be damned.

Does anyone have pictures of this new person to post. Some seem to know quite a bit about her.

Cole,

Go back up in this thread. The link to sasstudio has pictures.
