BEING BEAUTIFUL ME
This is Andrétta … She was inspired by her Grandmother, who was a singer, and
that closeness gave her the foundation to become intrigued and want to join the
world of the performing arts. When Andrétta was ten, her grandmother took her
to the summer camp at the Salvation Army to socialize with her peers and
showcase her artistic skills. Dancing helped her overcome her shyness and
developed an original rhythmic imagery. She is from a rich musical family of men
who are musicians, singers, composers. One of her Uncles, Sherman Garnes, was
in the famous group “Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers were inducted in the
“Rock -n- Roll Hall of Fame”. Andrétta, like many youth of the day, was bullied
throughout her childhood because she was so elegant and statuesque dancing
became her way to face the world.

As time went on, according to Andrétta her childhood best friend were asked to
perform at neighborhood “Block Parties” in Brownsville, Brooklyn, New York. At
age 16 she received a scholarship to attend the Nanette Bearden Contemporary
Dance Theatre, in Manhattan, New York. Andrétta’s grandmother would recall the
days she sang live at the famous Apollo Theatre in Harlem, New York. One day,
her grandmother decided to expose her to the business and took a trip to
the Apollo Theatre. While they were sitting in the audience, Andrétta, determined
to perform decided asked Ralph Cooper Jr., how she and the dance company
could get an audition and be a part of the Apollo’s showcase. He told her to
come back with her group to audition. They did and were picked to be the
opening act at every Apollo showcase. The group would open for mainliners as
well. Andrétta was able to interact and gain valuable advice from legendary,
Eartha Kitt, Actor, Obba Babatundé from “Dreamgirls, Life, and Half & Half”, and
worked with the late and great Howard “Sandman” Sims of the Apollo Theatre.

Just to name a few, and rubbing shoulders with the host of Apollo, Ralph Cooper
Senior. However, after a year the dancers disbanded and decided to pursue their
own artistic dreams. Andrétta always believed that education was an important
factor and decided to attend Baruch College three months after the tragic
passing of her grandmother. Andrétta continue to go to school during this
stressful moment. She declared an undecided major, but always known the
