Parker Cruise was born on November 30, 1995 in Philadelphia,PA. Cruise was the second of 3 girls. Growing up Cruise had always tried to find a way to get attention from her parents being as though she is the middle child, when she was only 6 years old she was in a gospel group with her oldest cousins, and sister. Cruise was one of the 2 youngest members out of the whole group, but even though she was small she still made her way so everyone could see her. Whenever Cruise hit the stage she knew she belonged there.

By the time Cruise was around 9 years old she had done her first solo act, it was her 3rd grade middle school talent show. Once again Cruise was one of the youngest students to perform, even though she was the youngest she still shined. The first song she had ever sang was "Reflection" by Christina Aguilera. "When I had done my first performance in 3rd grade I was ready to "WOW" the crowd,I kept practicing and practicing until i finally got it right, and my best friend was in the crowd so it made it a little easy on myself. So it was my turn to perform and when I had got up on stage I froze like a statue, and I was petrified, so the music started to play and finally the words came out."

Early Teenage Years

When Cruise was 14 years old she was soon to graduate from her middle school, while being active there she secretly meeting with her music teacher to work on her singing. 3 weeks before she was to graduate from her middle school her music teacher and graduation coordinater recommended her to sing the lead in the 3 graduation songs. Anxiously Parker accepted the task and had goten right to work on her assignment. Within the 3 weeks of practice it was graduation day, and when it was her cue to sing, Parker had "sang her heart out" and had gotten a standing ovation in the middle and the end of her song. "That was the happiest day of my life".

Now Cruise is currently in highschool and still working on becoming a successful singer/actress as her idols. Her music teachers reports that she has "potential" and everyday Cruise has that engraved in her head along with her heart.

Conversation w/ P. Cruise

"Growing up i was the middle child, and being the middle child means that I am technically not the baby anymore and I am not old enough to do certain things yet, so I had to find some way to seek my parents attention and when I had finally gotten it I wanted the spotlight to be directly on me. (Laughs) That sorta set tension between my sisters but as we grew up that phase had started to pass."

"When I write my lyrics i like to speak directly from the heart and tell my listeners what I am feeling, I dont want them to think that I had never gone through heartache, or disappointment, or decievement. I want my listeners to know that there are some things out in the world that they have gone through and that they are not alone when it comes to their heartache."

"The first song I had ever written was about heartache, like every girl in the world I fell for a guy, who didnt feel the same way and it only ended in heartache. So that was the worst 20 minutes of my young aged life."

"Whsat i have to say to those who dont really fit in their new atmmosphere, is to be yourself and dont let anyone take that away from you. God made you who you are for a reason, and you need to show that off with the world."
