I wonder if this is the same Tannis Vallely who played Janice, the young genius on Head of the Class. If so, Tannis, why don't you hook up Robin Givens with a part. She needs a comeback

Unfortunately, they're going to do Jen like that because Amurrica (sic) doesn't want to see her. They want to see Beecee outta H-Town, Eddie Murphy, Jamie Foxx.

Circuit city were giving out promotional t-shirts with each $9.99 (on-sale) soundtrack cd they sold, and I found out after they sold out. I can't find one anywhere in my area...
