One of her parents is from Bermuda, the other is Ethiopian.
So it’s hardly surprising American singer-songwriter Rachel Brown’s music fuses island, world, hip-hop and even country sounds into an enchanting groove.
Her music is so enchanting, in fact, she recently won on-line gossip/entertainment maven Perez Hilton’s regular song cover competition — beating out hundreds of other contenders with her version of the David Guetta/Usher collaboration “Without You”.
The self-taught musician was born and raised in New York but first made her musical mark here on the island two years ago with a series of appearances at Chewstick, Beachfest and the Bermuda Music Festival.
“It’s time to announce the winner of our most recent ‘Can YOU Sing?’ cover competition, this time to David Guetta’s superb ‘Without You’ featuring Usher and sometimes less really is more!” Perez Hilton – also a booster of Bermudian “Rent” actor Nicholas Christopher – announced earlier this month.
“Congratulations to Rachel Brown, our very talented winner, who proves that sometimes all you need is a guitar, a beautiful voice and an effective arrangement.

In honor of Spirit Day, a day in which Americans wear purple to speak out against bullying and show support for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community, the self-proclaimed "Queen of All Media," Perez Hilton, hosted a concert at the Hammerstein Ballroom on Thursday, Oct. 20. His self-titled "Perez Hilton's One Night in New York City" drew a crowd of over 3,000, as well as many celebrity performers.
DJ Pauly D of Jersey Shore fame, Boyz II Men and Mary J Blige used their celebrity status for a good cause, as 100 percent of the night's proceeds were donated to the Gay Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN), a cause extremely dear to Hilton's heart.

Perez Hilton calls Mariah Yeater ‘A Liar’: Justin Bieber paternity suit dropped
With Justin Bieber's paternity suit dropped, the world is no wondering if there is more to Mariah Yeater’s claim or was it 15 minutes of fame? Her lawyers are clear that the woman is getting harassed, but most that have an up close and personal look have come out vocally calling the entire issue an alleged hope for cash. One of those people is Perez Hilton. On Wednesday the columnist came out with claws on and called Mariah Yeater a liar on national television.
"First of all this girl gives Mariah's a bad name. She does. I definitely think she is a liar," said Perez Hilton on The Talk. "From the moment I first heard about this story it seemed apparent it to me was all about money.”
