The Story Of A
Cover Girl
 

As Freestyle music makes its remarkable return, Freestyle artist get a second wind, and shower America with Freestyle club and concert events. The struggling life of the Freestyle artist slowly levels off, and their greatest fears are finally put at ease. All except one artist that is, Angel,  known as The Original CoverGirl, or better yet, "The OCG".  Angel's history and hard work had become threatened, as old management attempted to re-enter her life and disrupt what her current management had been working so hard to rebuild.
As the lead singer of the original hit girl group "The Cover Girls", Angel's unique look and sound held one of  Freestyle's most  familiar signatures. Drama behind the scenes boiled over, and old management acted upon their "my way or the highway" attitude, concocting a plan that would try and recreate "The Cover Girls", a feat that did nothing but add mockery to the treasured Cover Girl name and hurt, an already beat up Freestyle market. That plan might have been successful if Recordings and Videos that focused solely on Angel didn't exist, but as we now see, God is the best of planners!
Phone calls and letters from old management flooded the market, threatening law suits on anyone who dared do business with Angel. But this time, things were different. Angel was not only managed by new company La' Entertainment, she married it's owner Latif Mercado, adding that extra layer of security to her reviving career. Young and fearless, Latif took on the forces that be, and stood up for the five foot one inch victim of "Freestyle's Big 'Ol Bully". Burning many bridges in the process, the young manager stood constant and focused straight ahead, and as time went on, he realized that those old bridges really didn't matter after all.
Stemming from new artist compilation label Stylin' Free Records,
La' Entertainment, had now grown to become a major player and primary supporter of the Freestyle genre. developing new ideas and concepts that would not only try and rebuild the market, but possibly reset it to it's previous standing. With the help of a remarkable team, incredible fans and loyal artist, La' developed a platform that would host Freestyle's largest on-line community and i-Radio Station, La' Radio Live, creating a  home for the nearly forgotten Freestyle market.
Angel (OCG) is back now, performing more than ever, and
whether alone or as one third of the infamous S.A.L. with sister acts Lil' Suzy and Lisette Melendez, her show is as amazing as ever, full of energy and great great memories.
Angel's natural beauty and voice have proven timeless as she performs some of her greatest hits such as Because Of You, My Heart Skips A Beat, Inside Outside, Show Me and  many more, she
stands center stage, looking out at the sea of people who have supported her for so many years. Unable to speak over the applause, Angel tries deperately to hold back her tears. She smiles, and her trademark green eyes seem say to her audience, "Thank You! Thank you, For never forgetting me

SHOW ME
OCG-Green25
 
I was on the set of "Show Me" by 5:00 am, I didn't sleep all night. I was so excited, wow my first video! No one knew what to do with me, the clothes didn't fit, my hair was too short. They ended up pinning all my clothes till they fit and wrapping a fake ponytail around my hair and hoping for the best. The other girls were experienced models, how would I fit in? Once the cameras turned on, so did I, the whole experience got me hooked. The white dress I wore was a favorite of the producer on the video, he even tried to get it for the Promise Me video. He loved me in white and felt it brought out my eyes. This was the first time anyone ever told me I had great legs, I wore mini skirts all the time after that. The girls were a big help to me on the video, they were like big sisters.
Hope you enjoy the video.
Love & Blessings,
Angel (OCG)

BECAUSE OF YOU
The Original CoverGirl3 

I got to the "Because Of You" video set late. We were on a schedule so I didn't have time to use the makeup artist or the hairstylist on the set. This video was produced by Nickelodeon. It was filmed at the Paladium in N.Y.C. We wore my favorite Cover Girl costumes. The dress I had on broke on the set, so again they had to pin me up. My clothes were always either too big or broken, talk about wardrobe malfunctions? I think I flashed people in every state. I didn't wear the gloves like the girls, they felt I was so tiny they would overwhelm me. They kept the kiss I blew at the end of the video, they felt it showed how young I really was, even in a hot dress.
Hope you enjoy the video.
Love & Blessings,
Angel (OCG)

INSIDE OUTSIDE
The Original CoverGirl4

Inside Outside was the only single released without an actual video. The dresses we're wearing were used in our Sprite commercials, the response was so great that we decided to add them to our shows. I later found out that the response had to do with the fact that whenever I spun around, that particular dress was notorious for showing off my panties. I have a little trivia for all you die hard Cover Girl Fans.. Who can name the TV show where this performance took place? By the way, I'd like to give a big shout out and thank you to DDWinters for getting me this footage.
Hope you enjoy the video.
Love & Blessings,

MY HEART SKIPS A BEAT
The Original CoverGirl5
I was so excited about filming the "My Heart Skips A Beat" video, we shot it in L.A. on a studio set. I didn't drive the car in the beginning of the video because I didn't drive well at the time, instead we had our road manager at the time drive it. This was the first time I realized I had a butt, when I was posing on the chair it was all any one would focus on. At that time I practically lived in my jeans jacket, the one I wore with the black dress. I think I kept everything I wore in this video. My Heart Skips A Beat was always close to my heart. When I recorded it I remember praying one day to feel that way about someone, finally I do...I Love you Latif!
Hope you enjoy the video.
Love & Blessings,
Angel (OCG)

PROMISE ME
 The Original CoverGirl6

The video shoot for "Promise Me" was awesome, the beautiful Viscaya museum in Miami. This was the first time anyone told me I had a great walk. Once again they dressed me in white and made the video outdoors to work my eyes. They also put my hair up feeling at this point it was a trademark for me. I never said anything, but I was so self conscience about my ears. I felt they were huge and stuck out. They asked me to trust them so I did, and it worked out great. The scene where we're running, you'll notice I'm not wearing a hat, well, it was too big for my little head. They had to improvise and took my gloves off and and used them to tie up my hair, Bam! another fierce creation. Promise Me was when I became 21 it was a very memorable time for me.
Hope you enjoy the video.
Love & Blessings,
Angel (OCG)

ALL THAT GLITTERS ISN'T GOLD
The Original CoverGirl7 
By the time the "All That Glitters Isn't Gold" video was filmed I was a seasoned pro. They put a gold dress on me in this video because of the title of the song and the color of my eyes. I was the first person I knew to wear a bindi on my forehead in a video. I had on the tiniest bathing suit in the scene with the guys, as usual I'm cracking up and nervous. I just couldn't bring my sexy back. I think this was one of the videos that really showed not only my personality but Caroline and Margo's as well. The sitting on set and munching and chatting was something we did a lot, a whole lot!
Hope you enjoy the video.
Love & Blessings,
Angel (OCG)

WE CAN'T GO WRONG
The Original CoverGirl8

"The We Can't Go Wrong" video was so cool to do because I had my nephews in it, family is so important to me so it was awesome having them there. Everyone says I look just like my mom in this video. Until this day, this video makes me emotional. One little boy in the chorus had a crush on me, he sang every Cover Girl song to me, made me feel honored. As usual they made sure at one point to have the sun hit my eyes, it was a focal point for every producer and director I worked with. It was a two day shoot, I got into a terrible car accident the night of the first day of shooting, so they had to use the footage they had of me and make it work, I think they did a great job.
Hope you enjoy the video.
Love & Blessings,
Angel (OCG)

SPRING LOVE
The Original CoverGirl9

"Spring Love" was filmed in Coney Island N.Y, one of my favorite places. As usual I'm rocking the white outfit. Everyone thought I wore wigs in this video, but it was my hair. This was when my fetish with hoop earrings began. They never did a love scene with me in any videos because I would end up cracking up, it made me too nervous. The gold microphone I wore on the chain around my neck was a gift from my mom, it was like a good luck charm, I wore it for years. The dancers in this video were a bunch of kids we saw practicing on the boardwalk and decided to invite them to join us on the video, they were so excited, it was great we had a lot of fun.
Hope you enjoy the video.
Love & Blessings,
Angel (OCG)
