Erika dreamt of being in showbiz at a young age and attended a performing arts high school in her native Atlanta, Georgia. At the age of 18, she moved to New York City to pursue her aspirations. Although Erika got married and had a son not long after moving to New York, she never gave up on her dreams of being a singer and a performer. After divorcing her first husband, Erika moved to Los Angeles where she met and married her current husband, famed trial attorney Tom Girardi. When her son was a teenager, she finally found the time to pursue her performing passion and created her alter-ego, Erika Jayne. Erika Jayne made her smash debut on the music scene in 2007 with her first single "Rollercoaster," which went number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart. Since then, she's had several number one Billboard singles, toured the world, and has collaborated with the likes of Flo Rida. In partnership with Shoe Dazzle, Erika has created very successful shoe lines and has also ventured into the makeup world in a rewarding collaboration with Too Faced. Erika’s performing career shows no signs of slowing down, and she is currently starring on Broadway as Roxie Hart in Chicago.
