Her father was a barber who owned a business on St. Anthony Street and her mother was a hairdresser.

Encouraged by Mrs. Leah McKenna, Principal at Rivers Frederick Junior High School, she participated in whatever recital or program being presented at the school or other venue. She credits her mother for being her staunchest supporter "who was the foundation of my life and all my successes."Her earliest memories of performers who inspired her are of Pearl Bailey, Eartha Kitt and Lena Horne appearing on the Ed Sullivan Show. The family relocated and she arrived in LA convinced she would make it. She got an agent and changed her name to Janell Michelle. She was also enrolled at the time in Manual Arts High School.
