Thank you for posting this Shonda. I can't say the name Irene Cara without "What a Feeling" or "Fame" playing in my head. Brings back lots of memories.

Same! She was a huge part of my childhood with those songs!
Her music definitely played a key role in the movie...which I loved :)

My favorite was her lead role in 'Sparkle', when she was only 13.
