"Lauren Hildebrandt Isn't Planning on"

WHAT DO YOU REMEMBER ABOUT HIGH SCHOOL? I was always
full of energy and very busy. I was on the swim
team, a cheerleader, and a dancer.
WERE YOU INVOLVED WITH MUSICAL THEATER AS A TEENAGER? Yes!
I did a lot of musical revues and cabarets – my
best friend and I got to sing a duet together,
which was pretty cool. I also played a fairy in
Babes in Toyland at Greasepaint.
YOU ARE ON A EUROPEAN TOUR OF GREASE AS A MEMBER OF THE
ENSEMBLE, WHAT CHARACTER DO YOU MOST IDENTIFY YOURSELF WITH?
I’m a little bit like Frenchie, but also like Sandy
because I’m often shy in new situations.
WHAT’S THE BEST ROLE YOU’VE EVER PLAYED? Other than
myself, I’d have to say Val in A Chorus Line or
when I was in Duke Ellington’s Sophisicated
Ladies. I loved the jazzy music!
WHAT WOULD BE YOUR DREAM ROLES? Lola in Damn
Yankees! and Roxy or Velma from Chicago.
WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO PURSUE MUSIC? I went to a musical
theater school the summer before freshman year.
I was awful! I didn’t memorize my lines and I had
never done harmony before. But it inspired me to
learn, and I started taking voice lessons.
YOU DANCED IN THE BLACK EYED PEAS’ NEW VIDEO BEBOT, WHAT
WAS IT LIKE? Fergie and Apple were so nice. Apple
was really good about getting to know all the
dancers, and Fergie kept complimenting us!
WHAT IS YOUR MOST MEMORABLE PERFORMANCE? At a Phoenix
Suns game. I sang the national anthem, and then
performed “Burnin’ Out” with the Suns dancers.
WHERE ARE YOUR FAVORITE PLACES TO SHOP IN ARIZONA?
I love Kierland, and Amy’s at Biltmore Fashion Park.
ANY ADVICE FOR ARIZONA TEENS? If you’re into the arts,
make sure you really love it. Always be passionate,
follow your dreams, and never give up!

Bio

Lauren Elise Hildebrandt is a triple-threat singer/dancer/actress, based in Los Angeles. Affectionately known as “Hildy”, she is an independent recording artist who’s currently in the studio working with 2007 Grammy Award Winner, Devine Evans on her debut album.

Discovered on NBC’s talent show, FAME, with Debbie Allen and Joey Fatone, Hildebrandt impressed the judges and landed among the top 12 finalists out of over 5,000 people who sang and danced their way at auditions across the country. (Runner up Shannon Bex is a member of the platinum-selling girl group, Danity Kane and other finalists are currently on Broadway.)

Hildy burst on the dance music scene in 2005 with her single, Burnin Out that she co-wrote with producers Liquid 360. It spent 13 weeks on the Billboard Hot Club charts, peaking at #5, an impressive debut for a new artist. Her music video to Burnin Out was directed by Patricio Ginsela, who directed two of the Black Eyed Peas videos. It is still in rotation in clubs, stores and restaurants and video channels across the world. Burnin Out also was #3 on Canada’s bpm dance station (like MTV), #35 on the worldwide dance charts, #50 on the Hot Brazil charts and #10 on the Bollywood charts in 2005-2006.

In March, 2006, Hildy was nominated as “Best New Dance Artist” at the International Dance Music Awards in Miami. She was in a category with superstar recording artists, Rihanna and Cascada. She was also a presenter at the Awards Show along with Kelly Rowland and Depeche Mode.

Her second dance single, Dance With You, was released in August 2006 through Act2 Records. It spent 8 weeks on the Billboard charts, peaking at #20. Both singles have been released internationally on DJ compilations.

Her third dance single, "My Life Again", is currently #25 on the Billboard Hot Club Play Charts (w/e 2/16/08) and still climbing. It is currently being worked to radio.

She has performed as a solo artist from Hawaii to New York, and locally has sung the National Anthem at a Phoenix Suns game and performed with the Suns dancers. She has upcoming appearances at the Winter Music Conference in Miami.

From August 2006 through May 2007, Hildy toured in the European production of the long-running, hit musical, Grease. She was featured on German TV in the popular show, Soundgarden, and was one of four cast members chosen to appear in Vienna’s Night of 100 Stars.

Now back in the States, she is co-writing and recording her self-titled debut album. One song on the album will feature a duet with Chip Days, an American Idol Season 2 Semi-Finalist. She has also co-written and recorded a song in Phoenix, Feelin Your Style, with BMI and gold-selling recording artist CeCe Penniston and producer Rodney Jenkins.

She has been featured and/or mentioned in the Arizona Republic, YES Magazine, Dance Spirit Magazine, USA Today, the Scottsdale Republic, Item Magazine, AZ Teen and 101 Scottsdale.

Hildy has also appeared in supporting roles as a back-up dancer to Fergie in the Black Eyed Peas music video, Bebot, in Liquid 360’s music video, Shout and as a vocalist on Sharon Stone’s Hurricane Katrina charity single, Come Together.

Hildebrandt was born in Walnut Creek, California and spent most of her years in Scottsdale/Paradise Valley, Arizona, where she was involved in dance, cheer and musical theatre. She graduated from Chaparral High School and attended Arizona State University.

Lauren is a member of ASCAP.
