The Bodyguard Star: "I Had No Desire To Be Seen!"

The music artist, who had no prior musical background, shared her testimony on the breakfast show: you know when people say it was Gods timing and Gods plan? That is exactly what happened, I was planning to be a teacher but I actually ended up seeing an audition the The Lion King in the voice newspaper, I was a secretary at the time went along to this audition

The actress noted how it didnt go well however a year later she got a surprise call from Disney: I got a phone call from the Disney team saying 'theyre starting a show in Paris, do you want to come along for an audition?, auditioned, started working in 2004 and have continued working ever sinceI knew it was God opening these doors as I had no desire to be on a stage.

Rachel also spoke on the recent scandal around Child Q, when asked about whether the apology issued is enough she said: I think an apology is a start we can keep apologising but behaviour stems from the heart, so if were not dealing with heart issues, the way we look after our young people, we cant treat them like adults before theyre adultswe have to pray about the trauma that this young lady has been through and her future

You feel like its your sister, your daughter, your sibling, no matter where shes from or who she is we have a responsibility my heart was sad about it
