Sherisse Laurence
Sherisse was born in Selkirk, a town of around 10000 people in Manitoba, Canada. She made her television debut in 1978 hosting the Canadian show, Circus. She stayed in that role for five years, using the name Lawrence.
After the opportunity to represent Luxembourg came up, she changed her surname to Laurence, and placed third at Eurovision.
Juggling her singing career, with being a real estate agent in Mississauga, Sherisse turned to country music, releasing the single Half A Heart, while headlining impromptu concerts in Canadian malls.
In 2006 Sherisse, now with the surname Stevens, relocated to Huntsville, a community town 215 km from Toronto, where she took on the role of musical director of Huntsville Community Choir. She also played the role of Mary Magdelene in the musical, Jesus Christ, Superstar.
