Toni Braxton

By: qaswer

Toni Braxton (born Toni Michelle Braxton on October 7, 1967) is an American R&B/adult contemporary singer-songwriter and actress. Known for her husky alto voice, Braxton has won six Grammy Awards and has sold over forty million records worldwide. Her US number-one hit "Un-Break My Heart" is the second biggest single by a female artist ever.

With her 1993 self-titled debut album she topped the Billboard charts and continued that streak with her second studio album "Secrets" which spawned the number one hit "Un-Break My Heart". After a messy bankruptcy she returned with her chart topping third album, "The Heat". Her later two albums, "More Than A Woman" which was her last on Arista and "Libra" which was her first and only release on Blackground were underpromoted and resulted in a commercial disappointment for Braxton. She later left Blackground and is now currently unsigned to a record label.

She is currently performing in her successful Las Vegas act, Toni Braxton: Revealed. Toni is in the studio working on her sixth studio album.

Born in Severn, Maryland, Braxton is the oldest of six children. She attended elementary school at Quarterfield Elementary School,[citation needed] and middle school at Corkran Middle School in Glen Burnie, Maryland.[citation needed] She also attended Glen Burnie High School in Glen Burnie, Maryland. Her father was a clergyman, and the Braxton children were raised in a strict religious household. Braxton's first performing experience was singing in her church choir. She attended Bowie State University to obtain a teaching degree but decided to pursue a musical career.
