Upcoming Artist, Androtta Drops Single at Midnight March 21, 2025!. Top Story - March 2025. Content Warning.
I met Janeilla Burns over five years ago, back when I was just a stylist in a local salon—juggling motherhood, studying writing, and pursuing creative dreams on the side. She walked in like a real-life Disney princess—Filipina, radiant, and effortlessly magnetic. Even then, I knew she had it. Janeilla was an icon. At the time, she was about to study music at Old Dominion University, mastering her voice while learning her industry from the inside out. What I didn’t know then was that this bubbly, ambitious young woman had already packed a lifetime of accomplishments into her journey. She’d been performing since childhood—piano lessons at three, dance training in ballet, hip-hop, jazz, and tap. She performed at Disneyland, opened for Pentatonix in high school, and trained with industry professionals, including directors from Boy Meets World and Drake and Josh. She didn’t just have stage presence—she earned it! And then, like the powerhouse she is, she put her rising fame on pause to serve our country. As a U.S. Navy veteran and Operations Specialist, Janeilla carried her passion with her—even singing at her own graduation. Stationed in Norfolk, Virginia, she embraced the honor of service while holding tight to the dream that had always been part of her.
