Biography:
Music has always been in the stars for
Lady LaStar, who goes by Sandra Bourgeon when she is not
behind the turntables. As a young girl growing up
in Paris, she knew that music was in her soul and her soul
was in the stars. The Sparkling lights in the sky
captivated her with their glowing energy. In her mind,
the stars danced to a track that she picked from her vast
music selection in her mind. Her imaginary record
crate included everything from rap to dancehall to gospel
songs she remembers hearing as a teenager.
As constellations used to give guidance
to early travelers, she would gaze into the night sky when
she needed to 'figure things out'. In 2000, she was
finally ready to embark on a lifelong dream of going to
Hollywood to become an actress. However, on the way, she
fatefully made a stop in San Francisco and it became her
destination. The city embraced her and felt more like
home than her own. Sandra finally found a place where she
was able to be the unique and dynamic person she was inside.
She also found a family of friends who encouraged her to
share the music that they knew was playing deep inside of
her. She came to America to get her star on the Walk
of Fame, but she happily realized that it really belonged
on her record bag ~ Lady LaStar was born!
Discovering house music was like finding
a cookie with all her favorite flavors. Lady LaStar knew
that house was her home because it encompassed all the music
of her past and then some. When she is up on the decks,
her passion and magnetic energy is undeniable. Whether
it is a packed dance floor or a living room of friends,
she masterfully selects track after track. Every night she
knows she has the tough job of pleasing the crowd.
Her ultimate fulfillment is when she hears an appreciative
cheer and sees glowing happy faces bopping to her beat.
Just like the dancing stars she used to DJ in her mind.
In the future, Sandra hopes to blend her two loves: music
& fashion. Her natural good looks are obvious,
but it is her unique style that turns heads. As she
establishes herself as one of the few talented female DJs
in house music, Sandra plans to make a name for herself
in the fashion world. Always a whirlwind of
energy, when she is not busy producing tracks in the studio,
she is behind the sewing machine. There are no limits
or boundaries to fashion or house music says Lady LaStar,
you can always discover something new, which allows you
to be in love with it forever.
