Over the past year, I've done stories on our very own "21st Century Girl" rocker, aka Carly Greenberg (C'05) and all the TV shows she's been singing the theme songs for.
After the jump, listen to a new theme song single she just launched for yet another new tv series!

I've covered singer-songwriter Jill Goldberg (C'04, Dischord A Cappella, Penn Choir, Wind Ensemble) on DT before and have been saving this great music video of hers for Halloween because I really like this song and there were some cool animated ghosts floating around in the video.
However, what I didn't know until yesterday was the moving backstory behind this song.
After the jump, watch the video and learn about the touching reason why her perspective about ghosts has changed over the years.

A particular favorite from lots of Penn alumni over the past year has been doing Adele covers.

I love how she goes balls-to-the-wall and pursues everything she wants. From reality TV star to children's book illustrator to singer, Schatar is a one woman marketing machine! Her perseverance is to be lauded like these Penn alumni.
After the jump you must watch clips from two of her latest events. All I'll say is you need to see how she enters before she sings the National Anthem at a Las Vegas event!

Recently on DT, I featured Rebecca Cook (C'11, Counterparts) a super talented new alum who did an awesome cover of an Adele song.
Turns out over the past 2 years, Rebecca has been involved in a friendly "pop song battle" with another super talented Penn (and Counterparts) classmate of hers.
After the jump, meet Johnny Lloyd (Mortar Board, Counterparts, iNtuitons '11) and check out his soulful cover of "Bills Bills Bills" by Destiny's Child.
Also, learn about how this recent grad is transitioning to life after Penn and keeping it in the arts with some other Penn friends of his.

It has become clear to me that Counterparts alumni love Adele:
A few weeks ago, we heard John Legend (C99, Counterparts) sing a great cover of an Adele song.
Now, I just stumbled upon a very talented recent alum's performance (also from Counterparts) of a cover of another Adele song.
After the jump watch her performance and listen to her unique voice!

Last week I covered a story about two Penn alum sister realtors starring on a new reality show. While we're on the topic of New York real estate, I thought you'd all be interested to check out the real estate of Penn alum John Legend (C'99).
A decade ago John Legend
shared an East Village apartment with 2 Penn friends. Now he's living the life there in a much, much nicer space. Check out his sweet NY pad in NY Home Design magazine HERE
Are you really surprised? :)

Over the past few days we've had the "Swing Dolls" and Penn's "Glee Club" do some holiday serenading to DT readers.
Today, we have a sweet rendition of "I'll be home for Christmas" from Penn alum Malik Smith (C'10).
I've covered Malik on this site before and he seems to be producing some really great music.
After the jump, get in the holiday spirit with Malik! (and be sure to take note of his digital fireplace!)
Happy holidays everyone!

Not only had Penn alum Schatar Sapphira (Arts House Resident, Inspiration, Penn Black Arts League, Penn Gospel Choir, Penn basketball manager) made it to the final six of Penn alum Mark Cronin's (ENG'86) "Flavor of Love
" and soonafter appeared on "Charm School", but she has created quite the career for herself and certainly knows how to market herself!As another Penn actor put it, you have to "own it" and be the CEO of yourself.
Schatar is the living, breathing embodiment of this! And she knows it : )
(A lot) More from Schatar, how much she "loves balls" (you gotta hear this), and her achievements after the jump!
