9. Hey, look me over
Tell me do you like
what you see?
Hey, I ain’t got no
money
But honey, I’m rich
on personality!
Lyric from “Baby I’m a Star”
Money can’t get you to smile, laugh, trust, hope, and most of
all love. But I, Alexis Marks, most definitely can!
10. I’m 5’6, uuhh..with 4 inch heels. I can expertly play over 30 instruments. I can
sing at least 4 octave vocal range. I was once a high school basketball star. While
on stage, I can jump off a piano in my high heels and do splits. I hate the internet,
it’s the devil. I sometimes practice being a Jehovah Witness. Oh, and NO I am not
GAY!
