Hey, look me over

Tell me do you like

what you see?

Hey, I ain’t got no

money

But honey, I’m rich

on personality!

Lyric from “Baby I’m a Star”

Money can’t get you to smile, laugh, trust, hope, and most of

all love. But I, Alexis Marks, most definitely can!

I’m 5’6, uuhh..with 4 inch heels. I can expertly play over 30 instruments. I can

sing at least 4 octave vocal range. I was once a high school basketball star. While

on stage, I can jump off a piano in my high heels and do splits. I hate the internet,

it’s the devil. I sometimes practice being a Jehovah Witness. Oh, and NO I am not

GAY!
