“She was a beautifully gifted soul whose legacy will live forever through her music and films.”

Irene was born in New York City in 1962, and she first dazzled audiences when she was just five years old. She had an immense talent for singing, dancing, and acting and appeared both on stage and TV, including Johnny Carson’s The Tonight Show at a young age during the 1970s.
