LEADING HER BACK
Excerpt from Billboard Magazine February 14, 2008


After a 15-year absence, Taylor Dayne returns to The Billboard 200 and the Adult Contemporary chart with her latest album and single, respectively. She also enters another chart and rises on yet another one, though she hasn't been absent so long from the latter and is making her first appearance on the former.

"Satisfied" (Intention), new at No. 179, marks Dayne's first appearance on The Billboard 200 since "Soul Dancing" peaked at No. 51 in 1993. Dayne made her album chart debut the week of Jan. 30, 1988, with "Tell It to My Heart," which went on to peak at No. 21. Dayne's album chart span is now expanded to 20 years and three weeks.

"Satisfied," Dayne's first charted album not released on Arista, is also a new entry on Top Independent Albums, where it bows at No. 22.

The single "Beautiful" opens at No. 29 on the Adult Contemporary survey. It is Dayne's first AC appearance since "Send Me a Lover" peaked at No. 19 in November 1993. "Beautiful" is moving upward on the Hot Dance Club Play chart, landing at No. 18 this week. Dayne was last on this list less than a year ago, when "I'm Not Featuring You" peaked at No. 2 in October 2007.

MESSAGE FROM TAYLOR
January 2007 - NEW ALBUM UPDATE

Dear Fans,

Exciting times are here again. 2007 has come in like a tidal wave, big and bold and this wave I'm choosing to ride YAHOO!!!! I realize you all might have a lot of questions and some very specific ones about this record I have just started the joyfull process of creating .

There's not much I can or want to reveal just yet, it's too personal a process for me but I will tell you this. I have a great team helping me thus far in bringing in outside material as well as setting up collaborations with writers and producers that I feel a connection with. This is a very reflective process and time. To be truthful to the Artist I am and who I want to be I have to choose wisely and say something in a way that resonates for me and connects with you and has meaning and messages that hit you in the heart.

Then I will know I've done my job correctly and that is my job and I'm taking this very seriously. I'm truly grateful for this blessed opportunity to do what I love, to sing, but to say something is key and there's much to say and I want to kick ass.

The type of music and style if you will will be revealed soon enough, but for now I need the room to experiment and challenge and try things out safely in the workshop.

All Love to you, Taylor

TAYLOR DAYNE -- DON'T MAKE ME OVER
Beck-Smith Syndicated  [April 21, 2005]

Former 1980s pop diva Taylor Dayne says she made it clear to the producers of VH-1's Remaking reality show that she was open to being remade -- to a point. The show, debuting tonight (Thurs. 4/21) attempts to re-ignite Dayne's career by pairing her with multi-Grammy-winning super producer Rodney Jerkins. She notes that when Mötley Crüe lead singer Vince Neil did the show previously, "he did three months of plastic surgery. So I go - 'Guys - if it's about music, I'm in. If you want me to work with hair and clothes stylists -- not a problem. Makeup? Let's go, bring it on. Choreographers? Cool. Plastic surgery -- not cool!'" However, the songstress admits, "You can tell that they did get some botox in me."

Dayne is very happy with the single called "Right Now" that her long-time fan Jerkins created just for her. "The song is very classic sounding Taylor in its own way? ballsy, edgy as well as fun." Still she says she wasn't thrilled about being followed around by cameras all day. "But the positive risks involved -- working with Rodney and having the potential to get my face back out there -- outweighed the negative of being so vulnerable. And the other stuff is funny. Listen, living in the Dayne house is nothing short of living in a three-ring circus... a single mom with three-year-old twins is out of control."


SLIM IN 6

Recently Taylor did a celebrity cameo for the in-home fitness product "Slim in 6" - you can check out her celebrity profile at www.slimin6.com.

EX-GREAT DAYNE'S GETTING A NEW SHOT
Marisa Guthrie, Daily News [April 18, 2005]

Dayne, with daughter Astaria, has a 'Remaking' comeback on VH1. Taylor Dayne, the big-haired '80s pop princess, is looking for a new groove. To help find it, she submitted to a "Remaking" courtesy of cable music channel VH1.

"To me, it was about finding new opportunities," Dayne said. "I know my voice touches people. It has for years. I can't give that up."

The transformation team provided by the show includes stylists, choreographers, personal trainers and the musical guidance of producer Rodney Jerkins, who has manufactured hits for Brandy and Monica. "Remaking: Taylor Dayne" premieres Thursday at 10 p.m.

When the VH1 team catches up with Dayne, whose big hit was 1987's "Tell It to My Heart," she's a single mom raising two toddlers and playing a daytime concert at Disney World sparsely attended by a crowd distracted by their fried chicken and French fries. "What was I thinking?" Dayne asks defensively. "I was thinking my kids got to have a good week at Epcot Center. I was thinking, it's paying my bills. I've grinned and beared a lot of crap, trust me." Previously, VH1 remade former Mötley Crüe lead singer Vince Neil, who having gained much weight after years of abusing food and alcohol, was playing concerts in a Minnesota strip mall. Part of Neil's transformation included plastic surgery. And upcoming editions of "Remaking" will focus on Jody Watley and Vanilla Ice.

Dayne, who was born Leslie Wonderman in 1962 on Long Island, said she wasn't interested in the "Celebrity Swan" treatment, as she put it, referring to the plastic surgery aspect. But viewers will see her getting cringe-inducing Botox injections in her forehead. And Dayne was cagey when pressed on whether she had any nips and tucks. "Really," said Dayne, "the focus was making a great song and coming together with Rodney Jerkins."

Jerkins produced a hard-driving, guitar-heavy single for Dayne called "Right Now." Dayne's best friend, "King of Queens" star Leah Remini, hated the song. "That guitar is killing me," Remini says in the show. "It's brutal."

The "Remaking" led to Dayne's recent appearance on "The View," where she performed the song. "Right Now" will be on her new album, which she describes as "soulful." It's scheduled to debut next month. "I think people are going to be pleasantly surprised," she said. "It's classic. I'm going for timeless stuff."

Dayne is also toying with the possibility of a TV series. But she stresses it would not be a reality series, something that a plethora of pop music stars are doing. Rather, she said, it would be only semi-autobiographical, like "Fat Actress" or "Curb Your Enthusiasm." "I'm really interested in that concept," Dayne said. "And I think most people are. It's part of our pop culture right now. "I'm certainly a fan of 'Give the people what they want,' " she continued. "But for me personally to be that exposed, I'd rather have a script and be on a set and not in my own house. I would be playing myself, but a caricature or myself."
