Born Courtney Lashae Murphy, but known to many as “Star”? she knew at a very early age that she was blessed with a choice of talents; singing, songwriting, and acting which would surely bring her closer to what would be her perfect world. Being raised in a low income household, this southern gal had a fall for nothing attitude and never allowed her hardships to alter her ability to dream. Star has cited legendary artists like Toni Braxton, Anita Baker, and The Isley Brothers as being major influences to her singing career.
