[edit] Does she play bass?

The article states: "She emerged into the public spotlight when cast as Cassandra, a rock singer and love interest of Mike Myers' character Wayne... . A trained singer, Carrere performed all of her own songs in the two films, and the Wayne's World soundtrack features her vocals."

In her on-screen musical performances, she's not only the singer, but also the bassist. Did she actually play the bass in her performances, on-screen and/or on the soundtrack? --Davecampbell 22:40, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Yes she was trained by the then boyfriend of director Penelope Spheeris. He is also in Cassandra's band.

[edit] Singing in Wayne's World 2?

Regarding the article's statement that she sings in both of the [[Wayne's World movies: does she actually do any singing in Wayne's World 2? I watched that movie again last night; and I noticed that while her band figures into the plot of the second movie significantly, her band doesn't play in the second movie like it did in the first one. Please correct me if I am mistaken, but I don't think the other members of the band had any significant role in the sequel. --Idont Havaname (Talk) 19:23, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Spanish or Portuguese? I am curious about this part of her info, because her real name sounds very much Portuguese and not very Spanish at all. Yet everywhere it says she is of part-Spanish origin. Now this can't be correct, can it?
