Belinda Metz

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Belinda Metz (born 1960 in Edmonton, Alberta) is a Canadian solo recording artist from the early to mid 1980s who has since turned to acting. She also has credits as a choreographer and songwriter.

In 1982 Metz released an independent mini album The Minx, and supported her release by touring heavily on the Ontario college scene. Signed to a recording contract in 1985 with Attic Records, she released a full length album Electric Splash which contained her only hit single, "What About Me", and won her a "Most Promising Female Vocalist" award from the U-Knows, CFNY's listener's choice awards. Belinda's strong, energetic pop music quickly made her a local favorite and earned her some national exposure.

Not long after this rise in popularity, Metz was severely injured in a car accident and has never returned to her professional music career. Later she returned to the public eye, acting as a regular in such shows as Kung Fu: The Legend Continues and TekWar. Recently, she had a role as Irene the manager on Disney's So Weird.
