Jodi Benson

I've done a variety of projects in different areas of the entertainment industry.

I was the original voice of Mattel's Barbie for an '80s claymation workout video.

I am a follower of Jesus. My husband really brought me to the Lord when I was 18 and I am so lucky to have a platform through the studio.

Being famous gets me good concert tickets, good tables in restaurants, good seats at sporting events and that's really about it.

There's never been anything I didn't love that I didn't connect with on a personal level because, to some degree, I projected upon it.

I spent 25 years clearly understanding that I'm not gonna meet Bono or the Edge. But then it happened at the Grammys when we were all backstage and I just about fell out of my shoes.
