Lilian

WWE Lilian has occasionally been involved in WWE storylines, and has been much more active on camera than her predecessor Mike McGuirk.Her first "run-in" with a wrestler was September 13, 1999, when Jeff Jarrett put Lilian in the Figure-Four-Leglock after she announced that he had lost the match. [1]Her second major involvement was on December 13, 1999 during an episode of RAW. Miss Kitty was to meet an unknown opponent for a Women's Championship match in a pool of chocolate pudding. After Lilian announced her, Miss Kitty grabbed the mic and informed Lilian that she was now known as The Kat. Backstage, Stephanie McMahon told Tori that she must wrestle Miss Kitty or else Stephanie would make life rough for Kane that night. After protesting Tori headed for the pool.Right after the two women got into the match, X-Pac came out to poolside in a skin diving suit complete with snorkel, flippers and goggles. As he was adjusting his goggles Tori jumped on his back causing both of them to fall into the pool. X-Pac ended up on top of Tori which gave Miss Kitty an easy pinfall. Kane came out and picked X-Pac up and threw him right in the middle of the pudding once again as Miss Kitty climbed out of the pool. Lilian announced the winner as "Miss Kitty," which infuriated The Kat so that she threw Lilian into the pudding pool. Lilian was wearing a skirt on that night, her underwear was exposed and she was obviously quite embarrassed. [2][3]On August 5, 2002, Rosey and Jamal squashed Lilian after her "bickering" with Howard Finkel wasn't "entertaining" enough for Eric Bischoff. [4]She once had a minor feud with Howard Finkel, whom she defeated in an evening gown vs. tuxedo match. During a RAW episode in November 2003, she announced correctly that Trish Stratus had won a bra and pantie match against Jackie Gayda. Gayda took exception to this, ripping the buttons off her shirt. Garcia then removed the shirt to reveal a black bra. The two argued before Rico, whom Jackie managed, and he separated the two. In June 2005, Lilian started a romance with Viscera and accompanied him to the ring for a brief time. She soon returned to her ring announcing only to inform Viscera that she wanted to get married at WWE Vengeance on June 26, 2005. At Vengeance, Viscera dumped Lilian in favor of The Godfather's Hos after The Godfather made an appearance at the pay-per-view.On November 14, 2005, the day after the passing of Eddie Guerrero, along with many other employees of the WWE, she participated in a video tribute for Eddie. In her video testimonial, she stated that she bonded with Eddie, recalling that they would speak Spanish all the time when they were around each other. Her fondest memories of Eddie were when they went to Iraq for the WWE's annual show for the troops. She said that the troops would go and thank him for being there with them and performing for them, but she said that Eddie would say, "No, don't thank me, because thank you for what you're doing for our country." She called Eddie one of the most humble people she has ever met, and she finished her tribute by saying, "Te quiero muchisimo, y espero que Dios esté contigo, adiós." (I love you very much, and I hope God is with you, goodbye.)Lilian also made WWE history in 2006 when she became the first female ever to announce Wrestlemania at Wrestlemania 22.On the April 17, 2006 edition of RAW, Lilian was nearly chokeslammed by Kane Kane had become delusional and mistakenly thought Lilian mentioned "May 19," the release date of See No Evil. Luckily for Lilian, Big Show came out to save her.On the May 23, 2006 edition of RAW, Viscera had proposed to Lilian in the middle of the ring, unfortunatly the proposal was inturrupted by Umaga.Diva Lilian took part in her first major Diva publication in 2005 with the release of the Viva Las Divas of the WWE DVD and Divas 2005 magazine. Garcia had not taken part in any previous Diva DVD's or magazines before, so her "Diva" title was somewhat debated amongst fans up until this point. Although a veteran in the ladies locker room, she hadn't really done much without a microphone in hand. However, her participation in the Divas shoot has gained her more attention and popularity amongst fans. Afterwards, Lilian participated in many promotional TV segments for the DVD and had her first real storyline involvement with the WWE Superstar, Viscera.In November of 2005, Lilian and the other divas participated in a "photo diary" from WWE, entitled, Divas Uncovered.Singing career Lilian has been singing since a young age, and when she's not announcing for WWE, she pursues a career as a singer. She has performed at the 1996 Summer Olympics , the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, Live with Regis and Kathy Lee and as an opening act for James Brown.Lilian released her first single, Shout, in 2002. In November of that same year, she recorded Torrie Wilson's theme song, Need A Little Time, for the WWE Anthology album. In January 2004 WWE released the album WWE Originals which included a new track from Garcia entitled, You Just Don't Know Me At All. This became Lilian's WWE theme song for WWE live events.Since mid-2005 she has been working on her first solo album, said to include Latin artist Jon Secada on a duet as well as co-writing several songs on her album[5]. The album is scheduled to be released in the summer of 2006.
