WP:BLP of an actress and singer, not properly referenced as passing inclusion criteria for actresses or musicians. As always, actors are not "inherently" notable just because they exist -- the inclusion test for an actor doesn't hinge on simply listing acting roles, it hinges on showing that she's had a WP:GNG-worthy volume of reliable source coverage about her performances: biographical coverage about her, film or television reviews which single out her performance for dedicated attention, properly sourced evidence that she has won or been nominated for a major acting award, and on and so forth.
But this is literally just "actress who has had roles", doesn't even say one word about her purported musical career at all after calling her a singer-songwriter in the lede, and is referenced entirely to a Twitter tweet and a Q&A interview in which she's talking about herself in the first person on an unreliable blog, neither of which constitute support for notability. And the article has never been better referenced than this in the past, either, so the problem can't be solved just by reverting to an older version.
Absolutely nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to have much, much more and better referencing than this. Bearcat (talk) 17:17, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

- Delete: Some limited coverage [1] of a performance she puts on (stage show), but nothing for notability. Oaktree b (talk) 22:13, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. Per Bearcat and Oaktree. She's far from passing WP:GNG let alone WP:NMUSIC or WP:NACTOR. Cheers. JFHJr (㊟) 04:16, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
