Model/singer Rosie Vela

You've heard of models who became actresses, but models who became singers? :-)



Rosie Vela was a top model of the 1970s and 1980s who turned to music in 1986, recording her album Zazu with help from Walter Becker and Donald Fagen of Steely Dan. Subsequent attmepts at a followup were met with resistance by her record company. She has also collaborated with Electric Light Orchestra leader Jeff Lynne.
