About Me

THE BLANX- THEIR STORY... Life happens. Two years ago after suffering great financial hardship and unbeknownst to friends, agents, and managers, Billy & Sharon were homeless. Putting a sudden and painful halt to their careers, they took several unfullfilling day jobs to make money. After much prayer, hard work, and many blessings they are back on their feet and finally releasing their CD with a much anticipated US/Japan tour to follow. Best friends for eight years, their bond as a married couple is stronger than ever. THE BLANX are grateful for being able to once again rage against authority and rock it out on stage. Billy & Sharon have a message for their fans: "In your darkest moment, the little bit of hope you have left is in fact more than enough to fight with."OTHER STUFF:BILLY BLANKS JR- Billy most recently finished directing and choreographing Tom Hanks, Jason Alexander, Hal Sparks, Debra Wilson, Britney Spears, The Cast of Will & Grace, and a list of over 45 A-list celebrities in a multi media concert event.
