She Can Sing!
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Don't think of ''Passions'' soap opera star Lindsay Korman as just an actress. She can sing, too.
Korman was a teen when she landed a singing role in Las Vegas' longest-running daytime stage show, and was still a teen-ager when she sang on Broadway.
At 16, she starred in ''Viva Las Vegas'' and followed it up after high school graduation with a role in ''Grease.'' She has had eclectic roles, including in a ''Beetlejuice'' stage show and the role of Galatea in the rock opera ''Pygmalion: The True Story,'' played on the island of Cyprus.
Now at 21, she plays Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald, who recently wed the richest man in the fictional coastal town of Harmony in the 2-year-old NBC soap.
Korman saw herself as a singer and said acting was challenging.
''Instead of singing the words, you speak them,'' Korman said. ''It's gotten easier, but it's still hard work.''
Korman got a chance to use her musical talent when she sang a duet on the soap, a song she co-wrote with musician-boyfriend Mark Provart. Korman also was thrilled to sing the national anthem at Dodger Stadium.
She says it's hard to find time for a dual show business career.
''I have a lot of difficult choices to make, and I always want to find time to enjoy myself and be with my friends,'' she said.
