Tenelle Christine Luafalemana has been described by many as “a breath of fresh air.” Her natural beauty and wholesome smile permeates on stage as she captivates listeners with her soulful sultry sound. Tenelle isn’t exactly sure of when her love for singing first started, but suggests that “growing up in Carson Ca, with a big family, where talent shows are more competitive than the X-Factor itself, may have well did it!” As a child, Tenelle recalls listening to artists such as Lauryn Hill, Betty Wright, and Gwen Stefani, while watching films such as the original Sparkle, dreaming of the big stage. Years later she would find herself on that stage performing her #1 hit singles “Flava” and “Get Some” in front of hundreds and thousands of people all over the world including Japan, New Zealand, Australia, the Pacific Islands, and the U.S.
Tenelle’s carefree attitude and love for life attracts not only fans, but everyday people alike. Hopes of bringing true happiness and positivity to just one person or millions of people is evident as she explains, “If my singing makes you smile, and a smile can change the world…I want to make the world smile”.
