Carnie Wilson (born April 29, 1968) is an American singer and television host, perhaps best known as a member of the pop music group Wilson Phillips. ==Early life and musical career== The daughter of American 1960s pop icon Brian Wilson of The Beach Boys, and his first wife, former singer Marilyn Rovell of The Honeys, she co-founded Wilson Phillips with her younger sister Wendy and childhood friend Chynna Phillips when they were in their teens. They released two albums, ''Wilson Phillips'' and ''Shadows and Light'', sold 12 million albums, and charted three No. 1 singles and six top 20 hits before breaking up in 1993. Carnie & Wendy Wilson continued to record together, releasing the Christmas album ''Hey Santa!'' in 1993. They joined with their father for a critically successful (yet commercially unsuccessful) 1997 album, ''The Wilsons''. She also sang "Our Time Has Come" with James Ingram for the 1997 animated film ''Cats Don't Dance''. In 2003, Carnie attempted to launch a solo music career with the album ''For the First Time.'' The album featured a remake of the Olivia DiNucci-penned Samantha Mumba ballad "Don't Need You To (Tell Me I'm Pretty)," retitled "I Don't Need You To," as its first single. However, the single failed to gain interest and the album was ultimately shelved when Carnie regrouped with Wendy and Chynna as Wilson Phillips in 2004. Reunited, the band released a third album, named ''California,'' which appeared on Sony Music's record label. The album featured cover songs primarily from the 1960s and 1970s, and specifically highlights the musical glory days of their parents' California-based musical groups: The Mamas & the Papas and the Beach Boys. In 2006, Carnie released an album of lullabies, ''A Mother's Gift: Lullabies from the Heart'',〔(''A Mother's Gift: Lullabies from the Heart'' Carnie Wilson ) Allmusic.com, Review by Rob Theakston〕 created shortly after the birth of her daughter Lola. She released her second solo effort in October 2007, a Christmas album entitled ''Christmas with Carnie''〔(''Christmas with Carnie'' Carnie Wilson ) Allmusic.com〕 featuring a song written by her husband; "Warm Lovin' Christmastime". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Carnie Wilson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
