Tané M. McClure〔 (born June 8, 1958) is an American singer and actress. ==Biography== McClure was born in Los Angeles County, California.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.californiabirthindex.org/birth/tane_m_mcclure_born_1958_6617477 )〕 She is the daughter of actor Doug McClure and Faye Brash, the first of his five wives.〔Joel Whitburn, ''The Billboard Book of Top 40 Hits''. 7th edn, 2000〕 She has a half-sister, Valerie, from her father's marriage to his fourth wife, Diane Soldani, in the 1970s.〔 McClure made a cameo appearance on her father's Western television series ''The Virginian'' at age five.〔 〕 Raised in Hawaii, McClure moved to Northern California and, at age 17, began singing in a Latin jazz band called Sweet Honesty.〔〔 〕 She recorded her first single, "Redwood City", in the late 1970s, and soon thereafter met The Babys and Journey keyboardist Jonathan Cain, whom she married.〔〔 Moving with him to Los Angeles, she landed a record deal in 1982 and released a self-titled album on RCA Records.〔 A ''Billboard'' review of the album described her as "an artist to watch" and remarked that she "looks incredibly beautiful on the LP cover. Then you put it on and find out that she can sing just as well."〔 〕 Allmusic's Alex Henderson wrote that "the material - most of it sleek, commercial pop/rock that was co-produced and co-written by Jonathan Cain and has a Pat Benatar-ish quality - is generally excellent."〔 〕 McClure disliked comparisons to Benatar, preferring to identify herself with her idol Grace Slick.〔 The album's first single, "Danger Zone", failed to chart, but the follow-up, "Holdin' On", peaked at number 37 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title=Tane Cain - Awards )〕 The album did not sell as well as the label had hoped (peaking at number 121 on the ''Billboard'' album chart),〔 and she was dropped, never to release another album.〔 During the latter half of the 1980s and through the 1990s, McClure starred in more than two dozen sexploitation films.〔 She also played the mother of Elle Woods (Reese Witherspoon) in ''Legally Blonde'' (2001) and its sequel, ''Legally Blonde 2: Red, White & Blonde'' (2003).〔 〕 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「Tané McClure」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
