by Ron Wynn\r Disco diva Ce Ce Peniston seemed poised to become that genres reigning crossover attraction. She was born in Dayton, OH, but her family moved to Phoenix when she was nine. Peniston was crowned Miss Black Arizona in 1989 and signed with A&M in the early 90s. Her debut, Finally, was a gold album; it peaked at number 36 on the pop charts and even landed a Top Ten pop hit with Finally and Top 20 pop single We Got a Love Thang. After Thought Ya Knew in 1994, Peniston issued 1996s Im Movin On. Peniston continued to sing into the new millennium and regularly plays shows in Las Vegas, Atlantic City, and San Francisco. Not entirely part of the mainstream that brought her success in the early 90s, Penistons work is remixed and remains a favorite in dance clubs around the world.
