Préscillia Samantha Cynthia Betti, known by the stage name Priscilla or Prissou, is a French singer.
Priscilla was born on August 2, 1989 in La Trinité near Nice, France. She was 11 years old when the show “Les drôles de petits champions” aired, and was discovered by the producer Patrick Debord (MGM). She signed with Jive records, the same record house as her idol, Britney Spears and later that year recorded her first single “Quand Je Serai Jeune”.
In 2003, she acted in a film directed by Hervé Palud entitled Albert est méchant with Christian Clavier and Michel Serrault.
After having consistent classical schooling up until the end of 8th grade, she decided to not enter secondary school, preferring to take correspondence courses so that she could better concentrate on her artistic career.
Priscilla has released four albums: “Cette vie nouvelle” in 2001, “Priscilla” in 2003, “Une fille comme moi” in 2004, and “Bric à brac” in 2005.
Her song “Cette Vie Nouvelle” is a French rendition of the song “What a Feeling” from the hit movie “Flashdance”. In 2006 she was asked by Disney to sing the French version of “Call me, Beep Me”, the theme song for the popular carton Kim Possible.
Priscilla will return April 2007 in an entitled series “Sing” and that should be broadcasted on France2 (in KD2A) current September 2007.
“PRISCILLA” is also the name of an italian noise-guitar band active in 1997-1998, starring Onq, and members from Morose and The Colours Seen From Behind.
