From Europe to Canada to the Princess Grace Theater, you’ve performed throughout the world. Would you share any performance highlights in your travels? Which of your performance numbers had the greatest impact on audiences around the world?

A treasured experience and memory is of my performance AFTER the show for the Royal Family of Monaco. We were dining at the Palace and I was fortunate enough to be seated next to Prince Albert. We had a conversation that was very revealing about his view on his life as a Royal Family member. Being single at the time, I managed to get Prince Albert to ask me out for a date on his yacht! I had cold feet the last second and decided to leave for Spain instead of waiting to meet up with him on the day that we decided to meet. To make a long story short, the Prince had an engagement that he couldn't get out of (so I was told) or I could possibly be Mrs. Prince Albert by now.... It could happen! But didn't. And it's all okay with me.

As for the greatest impact on an audience with my Chinese Act, I'd say I get the most remark about my Butterflies, my rice bowls, my snowstorm, and my quick change at the end.

Thanks for asking.

Hello Jade I would like to what part of the world was your favorite to perform for?

There really isn't a "favorite" per se. I loved them all! Germany and France stand out in my mind, but then again I loved working in Malaysia and Biloxi, MS equally as much! And Japan was really great too. Oh, and Singapore, Taiwan, Turkey.... I can't decide. I loved them all.

I was not the type of performer that would go to a country to just work and fly home. I always made it a point to stay one or two weeks after the gigs to explore the country or the surrounding areas. I always believed traveling the globe was the best thing I can do to expand my mind. I can't wait until my kids are old enough so my husband and I can take them overseas to do a gig somewhere.

And you enjoyed performed in Australia for Hobson too... *g*

Hi Tim! And of course Australia. I'd go back in a heart beat!

I enjoyed your beautiful act with Murray Hatfield's Canadian tour a number of years ago in Vancouver. Hope to see your act again in the near future!

Thank you! The Canadian tour was a blast to do. It was my first bus and truck tour. What fun!
