OFFICIAL AMERIE THREAD @ SOOMPI FORUMS
since Amerie's been getting more and more popular and having more and more press, i felt it was time for her to have a proper official thread. Yes there was a thread on her already, but it lacked any real structure. So welcome to Amerie's new Soompi thread! Please feel free to add any news and or pics that you may have in your personal collection smile.gif



NAME:Amerie Mi Marie Rogers
STAGE NAME: Amerie (에므리)
DOB:01.12.80
DEBUT:2002
BIO:''Singer Amerie is the daughter of a Korean mother and an African-American father who was a career military member. She grew up on bases from Alaska to Germany, meanwhile gaining an appreciation of the classical arts from her mother and of R&B music from her father. She studied dance from an early age and performed in talent contests throughout her youth. After her high school graduation, her family finally settled down in Virginia, while she began to attend Georgetown University, from which she later graduated with a degree in English and Fine Arts. While living in Washington, D.C., she met producer Rich Harrison, who worked with such performers as Mary J. Blige, and began developing demos with him. They led to a deal with Rise Entertainment and, in turn, with Columbia Records. In the spring of 2002, Rise/Columbia released Amerie's debut single, "Why Don't We Fall in Love." By the time her first album, All I Have, appeared that July, the single had reached the Top 20 of the R&B/hip-hop charts and the Top 40 of the pop charts. Her follow-up albu, Touch, was released in 2005. ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide''

SIBLINGS: sister, Angela Rogers (also her lawyer)
HOBBIES: singing, dancing, acting
INTERESTING FACTS: Amerie's first language is Korean, but when they moved to the US, her mother limited the use of the language in fear of them not being able to learn English proficiently. She does however speak conversational Korean to her immediate and extended Korean family. She also has her name in korean (에므리) tattooed on her lower back to celebrate her Korean heritage, and she has been known to give autographs in both English and Korean script. Amerie is also an actress. She can be seen in the movie First Daughter playing the character of Mia Thompson.

~'NEWS'~

here is a recent (5/23) blog entry from Japanese R&B Princess Miliyah Kato about her meeting with Amerie:

2007年05月23日
AMERIEと対談してきました!
2日前に会ったばかりなんだけどまた再会できて超感動!
AMERIEは本当に気品があって、優しくて美しい!
本当にアジアンビューティー!
話すと、AMERIEと私にはいくつか共通点があることが判明。
曲の作り方、スタジオじゃなく家での曲作りが好きだということ、
恋愛に対しては超真面目だってこととか。
あと、喉のケアの仕方もこっそり教えてくれたの!すっごく素敵な人!
「また会おうね~!」と連絡先を交換して、親睦を深めました♪
今回の対談は来月号の「BARFOUT!」でチェックできるから読んでね~!
MY BEAUTIFUL SISTA, AMERIEのNEW ALBUM「Because I love it」
是非聴いてください!色んなジャンルがミックスされた素晴らしいアルバムだよ!
AMERIEが大好きになったわ!

--quoted from miliyah's blog @ http://www.miliyah.com

Translation:
2007.05.23
I talked with AMERIE!!
We just met for the first time 2 days ago but i'm so excited that i'll get to see her again!
AMERIE is really elegant, gentle, and SO PRETTY!
Seriously an ASIAN BEAUTY!
When we talked i noticed that we had a ton of stuff in common.
Like song-making, we both like making songs in our houses rather than studio, and when it comes to love we're both very honest/sincere.
Later, she secretly taught me a good way to care for my throat! She's SUCH an awesome person!
Lastly, with an "I'll see you later~" we exchanged addresses, deepening our friendship.
You can check out our conversation in next month's issue of BARFOUT so read it~!
Everyone please listen to MY BEAUTIFUL SISTA AMERIE's new album! All kinds of genres are mixed into this amazing album. I've really come to LOVE AMERIE!

I think she would do better in asian countries then she does here in america. Personally, i don't like her. She is so bland. I don't like her new album either but that one song she had with Se7en and that was only because of Se7en. But she is pretty.

she seems really cool and kind hearted

her album is ok to me not amazing, but its has some good tracks on it like:

take control
crush
paint me over
lovin you is easy
road to you (? i think)

i really like the live and sometimes raw percussion instrumentals she uses for some of her tracks...

she's been in the studio recently and a new song is about to hit the airwaves! it's called FLY LIKE ME by Chingy and Amerie and it's the first single from his 'HATE IT OR LOVE IT' album. smile.gif

have a listen:

--honestly i'm not too fond of Chingy..but i will say that i kinda like this song..his voice isn't as nasally and annoying as i remember it being..and Amerie's vocals add a sweet R&B twist to it. smile.gif

I was a huge Amerie fan when she came out. I kind of grew out of her by her second album even though I did love Touch and 1 Thing. Thanks to a stylist at my hair salon who always plays Take Control of me I'm rediscovering her. I hope her company stops trippin' and releases her album here. crazy.gif
How about them Cowboys?!?!
