She’s Not Your Typical Rodeo Groupie  
                             story by: Lloyd DeBerry


2006 was one interesting year for J'Lee, with  "Cutting Horse Dance," being on Music Row chart. Music Row reported J'Lee's Spin Power at 300 percent moving her up 65 spots. Cutting Horse Dance is also being reported to NMW and TRRR.  
J'Lee says she has done extremely well and is so ecstatic with the support she has received from COUNTRY radio with her single "Cutting Horse Dance". "I am grateful and couldn't ever thank them enough for giving me a chance to be heard."  

MOVIE:
After writing the Cutting Horse Dance, J'Lee presented it to the producer of "Expect A Miracle". It's a movie about cutting horses and the fight to survive cancer. She thought maybe the song could be used as a closer but instead the Cutting Horse Dance is the opening song for the movie. J'Lee is also a principal character in the movie starring as a striving artist without family support.

MAGAZINE ARTICLES:
J'Lee was interviewed by Quarter Horse News magazine and was featured in their December issue. She was also spoken to by Cutting Horse Chatter magazine based out of Texas and will be featured in this publication as well.
APPEARANCE'S
In December J'Lee was in Texas where she opened for Celebrity Cutting 2006 with her latest single. As she stood just above the cattle in the Will Roger Memorial Center she sang the perfect song for the occasion "Cutting Horse Dance".  After her performance she was interviewed and several fans approach her for an autograph. The comments continued to come through out the Celebrity Cutting event on "Cutting Horse Dance".
SONG REQUEST:
When Cutting Horse Dance was first released to country radio, one station told us people was calling in requesting it and although they couldn't remember the artist or the correct song title they would say "play that dance song". The program director said but we knew what song they were talking about. " J'Lee and "Cutting Horse Dance".
THE SONG:
According to the public the Cutting Horse Dance is a feel good make you wanna dance song. One radio host was caught in action while listening to "Cutting Horse Dance" and when ask what was she doing the host replied "I think I'm doing the "CUTTING HORSE DANCE". So tell us radio personality have you gotten your dance on yet?
THE ARTIST:
J'Lee, is originally from Florida but transferred to Nashville, to learn more about music. She considers herself to be a simple person who believes that one of the greatest sights you will see is a SMILE on someone's face. And the greatest sound you will hear is LAUGHTER. She says "for that moment of amusement I pray one has forgotten their troubles".

J'LEE:
Please allow me to speak with you for a moment. Yes I am simple but honest. I try to treat you the way I want you to treat me. And as hard as I try to do the right thing I still screw up sometimes. (oh that's what I get for being human) but I hope you will look beyond my faults and love me anyway.
All my life I have had a love for horses and music or is it music and horses? I don't even know I just know I have loved them both before school age. Right now I am putting forth all strength and effort into my music. All I seem to write about lately is horses, cows, bulls, cowboys and cowgirls. I am doing extremely well and so ECSTATIC with the response I have received from COUNTRY radio with my current single "Cutting Horse Dance". I don't know where this will take me I just have to wait and see. Well, I guess it's like I've always said "do the very best you can and put the rest in God's hand."
