Wow, what a fun loving and creative person. I'm going to check out all her songs, and imagine going to her parties! This is a woman to celebrate, she lives life according to her own light and it sure sounds like she has an army of friends she cares a lot about. Cheers!

So, how does one get invited to these parties? Asking for a friend....

As Queen, i decree that all should dance whenever September is played. The reward is pure joy.

I hadn't heard of Ms. Willis until I heard Taylor Swift's odious rendition of "September". Willis' description of it is hilarious!

I didn't know about Ms Willis before I read this article, but I am in love with her now. Congratulations! "September" is one of my all-time favorites!
