Photo Coverage: Nicole Vanessa Ortiz Previews BECOMING HER: A DIVA'S TRIBUTE
Just last night, Nicole Vanessa Ortiz, fresh on the heels of starring in Spamilton and Smokey Joe's Cafe, made her Feinstein's/54 Below solo concert debut in Becoming Her: A Diva's Tribute. Since she was a child, female vocalists have inspired Nicole to use her gifts as an artist on stage. She landed on American Idol as a finalist, won the grand prize on "The Wendy Williams Show" singing competition, and made such an impression singing on BET's Apollo Live that Gladys Knight personally invited her on tour!
