When I was 2, in the summer of 1987, I was in Florida with my family on
vacation at my cousin's house. I was always with my cousin for that week, and
one day she took me to the mall with her mom, and we were shopping around and
about an hour of shopping they got tired and we sat by a small stage with
people getting set up for a performance, they decided to stay and watch, and
TIFFANY was going to perform. Well, we watched her dance and sing her head
off to a 6 minute version of her song I Think We're Alone Now. After she was
done, I had a new idol. Instead of Debbie Gibson (she was good) I had
Tiffany. She was signing autographs for some people and they stepped up to
her and patted her on the back with compliments, she looked at me, and we got
a picture of her holding me, once I get a scanner I'll be sure to send a
copy, anyways she then gave us an autographed copy of ITWAN (45) and DANNY
(45) then we bought her album. I LOVED HER ALBUM, being only 2, I think my
mother purposly lost it but that Christmas I got a new one. Then I got the
rest of her Singles!
In 1988, I was still listening to Tiff, and wailing her tunes. Then my dad
asked me if I wanted to buy a cassette from his COLUMBIA HOUSE cataloge and I
noticed something very cool! TIFFANY HAS A NEW ALBUM! I was sooooooo happy, I
bought HAOFH, and listened to it day and night, I bought her singles from
that album too.
Then, my 4th B-Day came around and my mother knowing I loved Tiffany
surprised me into getting me backstage passes to Tiffany's Hold An Old
Friend's Hand tour. I was soooooooooooo happy, I got to take my cousin who
had introduced me to her music. When the day finally came around, I met her
and I was shy! And she was really sweet, we showed her the picture (she
didn't remember it) and signed some of my merchandise (t-shirt, poster).
Comming around to 90', I was watching previews for THE JETSONS and
noticed TIFFANY WAS IN A MOVIE, and she also had a NEW CD! I was really
excited, I went out and bought the album, it was good, and I wasn't
dissapointed. I also went to see THE JETSONS which i loved!
As Tiffany's fame faded out, my interest seldomly did too, but I always
listened to her music. Then in '95 I was looking around the web for Tiffany,
and low and behold there was a Tiffany web site. Since than, I have basically
collected Tiffany Memorabillia, and she is still my idol to this day!
I hope I'm not corny by saying this but, I am a very musical person and
Tiffany has shown me alot of it, I love music now and I want to become a
singer, Tiffany has made me decide that!
