Birth Name:
Alexzandra Spencer Johnson
Alexzandra Spencer Johnson was born on November 4th, 1986. She is the sixth child in a large family of ten children, with six brothers and three sisters. She enrolled in singing lessons at age six, and still makes time for classical vocal training with her teacher, Joseph Shore. Her training has given her a profound knowledge of her ability and range. She entered the P.N.E. talent search, becoming a finalist, and began to display a unique confidence and composure in front of an audience, adoring any opportunity to astound them with her vocal ability. At age eleven, Alexz entered an AnthemMore contest sponsored by a popular radio station, KISS-FM, and became a finalist of over 800 competitors, most of which were professional adult vocalists. She won the opportunity to sing for the season's end Canucks game, and the station was so impressed with her talent, "Fred and Cathy" invited her on their program to sing. On the morning of the game, Alexz sang a heart rending version of "My Heart Will Go On", acapella, resulting in a huge following of listeners calling the station to ask about this little girl with the incredible voice. The listeners relentlessly called B.C.T.V. asking that Alexz be televised singing the anthem at the game, so that they could hear her. Because of the huge response, B.C.T.V. finally broke with tradition, giving Alexz her first opportunity to sing on National television. She received her first CBC interview, and on live television she sang our anthem as it should be sung, winning acclaim from the Vancouver Sun, as the best anthem singer of the season. Letters were sent to the editor asking to send Alexz to Ottawa to show them how the anthem should be sung. After this event, Alexz became known as the KISS-FM girl, being asked on their program to sing for their listeners. She received many calls from management wanting to represent her, and began performing all over town. She opened the Variety Show, singing a duet with Bob McGrath, "I'm the Bravest Individual". She sang the anthem at every possible venue, from baseball championships to the N.B.A. and the N.H.L. She performed at the Molson Indy, doing her first complete set of songs, and ended 1999, as the sole entertainment at Planet Hollywood for New Years Eve. In three short years, at the age of twelve, Alexz had become quite the professional. She was now ready for the next step. For the past two years, Alexz has gained much experience in the studio. She began working as a demo singer on various projects, and worked with producers and songwriters, co-writing some of her own music, and developing her own direction and sound. During this time she received a factor grant, recording the song "More than Friends", and was a finalist in the YTV achievement awards. Alexz was now ready for her own demo to go out to record labels in the hopes of achieving her ultimate goal of becoming a recording artist, like her idol, Celine Dion. However her life was to take another direction. First and foremost, she had to be able to sing. Completely unaware that she had won such a huge part. So Weird, was acclaimed by T.V. guide as the number one kids show, with a huge internet fan base, receiving 60,000 hits a day. Fan clubs started everywhere, with Annie's popularity taking the show to a new level. Episodes were written around Alexz's vocals and talent, with fans wanting to know where they could find her music. Disney used one of Alexz's songs, which she co-wrote, for the episode of Carnival, where she enters a talent contest. Alexz couldn't have been more excited having her own music on TV. Alexz recently completed a promo tour from L.A. to New York, was being interviewed by all the teen magazines, and has been recognized as an up and coming super teen, with charisma and star quality. She was flown to L.A. to record the original song, "Everything", for the movie "The Other Me", about a boy who clones himself. *N Sync, and Aaron Carter were also featured on the sound track. During 2001, Alexz was featured on BroadbandTalent.com and was their most requested artist in the pop category, resulting in two promo advertisements in Billboard Magazine. With the guidance of her new manager, Mr. Neil Macgonigill, Alexz decided to turn down a recording contract that was not suitable for her career. Therefore, she is still pursuing a contract that will be a perfect fit. She will be down in L.A. in February to record a new demo, as she has been writing new music with her brother, Johnny elkins, and C.J. Vanstan.

    Two words. Awesome Alexz! hide show

    Yup, she is really cool. She's a great actress and singer. I first saw her on So Weird as Annie, and she did one hell of a job! She rocked the show out! I loved that show with Fi, but I also loved it with Annie. I liked how there was comedy in Season 3. It was really funny.

    I love Alexz's music too! I have a few of her songs from iTunes, and she is amazing! She was a great singer when she was only 13-15 years old, but she is EVEN BETTER!!! She seriously rocks! Go Alexz Johnson!!!

    What an amazing actress and singer she is. hide show

    Started it off big with her role on "So Weird" and progressed onto the hit-making Canadian show, "Instant Star" Her looks, personality, charisma, talent, everything about her is just amazing. Unlike like many stars, she can definitely hold a tune and strum the guitar, now that's raging. She is, and forever will be an idol of mine, proving to many guys out there, that girls can rock.

    Amazing woman! hide show

    Alexz Johnson is breathtaking without a doubt. I love Instant Star and watching Alexz Johnson on it is what makes the show complete. I couldn't imagine anyone else playing her part in the show. She's definitely a talented woman and one of my favorites. This girl can sing people! Give her a record deal and I'll buy all her CD's! Her acting is awesome as well because I sure am one of those people who sit at home glued to the television screen feeling every emotion that Alexz brings out to Jude's characters. Now I call that pure good talent!
