AGE: 41

TOWN: Golden Meadow, La.

FAMILY: My husband is Ronny Friloux; daughter Demi Shicksnider; stepdaughters Cheisi and Kaitiyn Friloux; and many, many, many more!


PROFESSION: I am a vocalist and waitress.

HOBBIES: Singing, gardening and my favorite, which is making someone laugh or at least smile!

WHAT IS A TALENT YOU HAVE FEW PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT: Making flower arrangements and crafts.


IF YOU HAD TO SPEND A YEAR ON A DESERTED ISLAND, WHAT ONE THING WOULD YOU TAKE ALONG: Asolar-powered radio. God knows music can make everything all right!

YOU’RE A MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR LOTTERY WINNER. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO: I would donate monies to different foundations and charities such as a cancer foundation, heart foundation and also a mental health foundation. I would also donate to shelters for battered women/men, animal shelters, and of course, as anyone would, just spend some. But I’d also definitely take care of my family.

WHO IS YOUR ROLE MODEL: My role model, I would have to say, would be my mom. She showed me that a single mother/woman can do anything they put their minds to. When I, as a child, along with my sister, we endured quit a few struggles. She always pulled us through everything! She made the best out of everything, good or bad. Things always worked out. It may not have been exactly how we would have liked or wanted it, but it was something! Things just as simple as a cardboard doll house to tracing a coloring book page to be able to color it more than one time. These are things today that people don’t even realize. It was something so simple, but was like having all the luxuries of what the kids of today have. Thanks mom!


IF YOU WERE A SUPERHERO, WHO WOULD YOU BE AND WHAT WOULD YOUR SUPER POWER BE: I AM “TA-DA WOMAN”. My super powers would be to make any girl, boy, woman, or man feel the best about themselves. I’d make sure that their self-esteem is right on point! “TA-DA”.

TV SHOW GUILTY PLEASURE: The ID Channel! I am Dana Friloux and I am an Investigative Discovery addict.

PROUDEST MOMENT: I have a few that I would say are my proudest. That would be seeing my little girl that I created in my belly for the first time and saying, “I created you!” Also, when I heard my song ‘Where Love Is’ on the radio for the first time. Also returning to school and graduating at the age of 36 years old, and also being 8 years into sobriety. And finally, finding the man of my dreams, my soul mate, my best friiend, my confidant and my love Ronny, and later becoming his wife. “With God all things are possible.” Matthew 19:26


HOW DO YOUR FRIENDS DESCRIBE YOU:

“DFran, your burnt crispy, but we love you for that. You’re always making us smile or laugh!”

DESCRIBE YOUR DREAM ADVENTURE: I would love to visit a few places. I’d love to go to Hersey, Pennsylvania to see the Hersey Chocolate Factory, and many other places around the world.


I WISH I COULD BETTER: I wish I could not let things get to me as much as they do. I would love to be better at that.
