Episode 17: Kira Divine
According to a 2017 article on babbel.com, Queens\xa0holds the Guinness\xa0World\xa0Record for \u201cmost ethnically\xa0diverse\xa0urban area on the planet,\u201d and it's also the\xa0most\xa0linguistically\xa0diverse, with at least 138 languages spoken throughout the borough.\n\xa0\nIt is also a fact that many kings and queens of the entertainment industry have emerged from this storied borough. One of the most talented Queens from Queens is Kira Divine.\n\xa0\nKira is a reflection of the potpourri of accents, music genres, cuisines and cultures that she was raised among. In Queens, Kira learned how to be kind, how to teach, how to love, how to be patient, how to believe and how to work hard.\n\xa0\nKira left her college, not only with her degree but having founded what is today one of that institution\u2019s most important student organizations.\n\xa0\nYears of dance training led to her teaching at the prestigious Alvin Ailey Academy of Dance in Harlem New York. However, she was not done. She then went on to appear in Broadway productions, music videos and films. She is the definition of a triple threat. Her dancing ability led her to work with Beyonce, her singing ability has seen her sing backup for Lauren Hill and her acting ability got her into a film with Cuba Gooding Jr. \xa0Kira Divine is certainly all things that her name suggests. Divine!\n\xa0\nKira, who is currently the lead vocalist of Australia\u2019s dance music sensation PNAU, is challenging herself once again, by producing her own solo music project. If the sky is the limit, my bet is that Kira Divine will stretch her hands passed it.\n\xa0\nThis is the story\u2026 thus far\u2026 of Kira Divine.
