Forrest Amber Lipton was born and raised in Houston, TX and from a very young age, had a knack for entertaining. She began singing on her own and then added piano to the mix, but Forrest was not content just playing someone else’s music: she experimented with writing her own songs and actively promoted herself to become quite the local sensation.

At the age of eleven Forrest appeared on Star Search and won thefirst round in the junior singing competition with Tina Turner’s let heraudition for Showtime at the Apollo on Tour, which resulted in her winning the competition and appearing on-stage at the Apollo Theatre in New York.

When Hip-Hop mogul, Master P, got word of Forrest and her genuine talent, he setup a meeting and the two entertainers immediately hit it off. Master P was not only impressed by Forrest’s voice, but alsoher personality and character. Indeed, Forrest’s altruistic values keep her humble and she consistently reinforces her motto, “stay in school, say no to drugs, listen to your parents, and don’t be in a rush to grow up! It’s okay to be a kid!”

Shortly after the meeting, she began crafting her teen-pop sound withthe help of producers and songwriters such as E Poppi, Erin Stevenson, Chip for Mohitz Ent., Kiotti, Myke Diesel, and Drumma Boy.

Forrest first collaborated with teen-rapper Romeo (formerly Lil’Romeo) on the set of her DVD movie, Crush On U. In the film, Forrestdevelops a crush on her de-facto babysitter (Romeo) and tries all sorts of tricks and tactics to win him over. The light-hearted movie was released in Spring 2007 by First Look Home Entertainment and is available at large retailers (Target, Wal-Mart, Best Buy, etc) nationwide. Forrest supported the release on a meet & greet mall tour
in four cities around the US.

Forrest’s creativity extends beyond movies and music. She’s working on a cartoon of her alter ego named Madame Prez, a clothing line, and a book collection. Presently, Forrest is working on a song with Aaron Carter for her full-length album, a TV show with Romeo for ABC Family called Kings of Malibu, and another film titled The Prom.

Despite her busy entertainment career, Forrest still maintains a
normal lifestyle. Her love for sports keeps her athletically inclined. She is an all-star softball shortstop, she’s on her high
school honor roll and continues to compete in piano competitions.
