Terry Ellis

Terry Lynn Ellis, born September 5 1966 in Houston, Texas, USA, is an African-American R&B singer. After receiving a degree in Marketing from Prarie View A & M University, she joined En Vogue. En Vogue was planned to be a trio (a 90's version of the Supremes), but the producers were so impressed by her coloratura soprano, they made the group a quartet. Her gift of range of climbing scales in staccato is showcase in songs like Don't Go, where at the end, she climbs the scale in staccato into the whistle register. En Vogue lost members Dawn Robinson and Maxine Jones, the latter replaced by Rhona Bennett. Besides touring, Terry has a fragrance out called Southern Exposure. She is currently seen with other members of the original En Vogue in the new Stevie Wonder video.
