Yes, it is indeed Diana Krall, from Nanaimo, B.C., Canada.
We here in Canada have known about and followed the career of this smokin' hot lady for 20 years. I first came across her amazing recordings in the early '90s, and I sold a ton of sound equipment using her recordings as demos. A lot of people would hear her and say, 'Holy S#!t!', and they wanted a killer stereo to be able to reproduce that husky, throbbing, whiskey-tinged voice and her incredible piano-playing. She actually appeared in a tiny 350-seat local music-hall in my small city in 1997. I knew about it early and scored front-row center seats, so I was about 10 feet from her the whole night. Her hair is the color of honey, her sleepy bedroom eyes are the softest shade of green and her skin has the consistency of Devonshire cream. Altogether one of the sexiest, most stunning women I have ever seen, and on top of that she is among the top two or three jazz musicians in the world.
Do I sound like a fan? Yowza. |

And one more thing: Remember what Kathleen Turner looked like in 'Body Heat'? And what she turned into later? Diana Krall has no aging process. She's 46 years old, and still looks like she did 20 years ago, maybe even hotter.

This from Wikipedia: Slowed by disease Turner remained an A-list film star leading lady until the early nineties when rheumatoid arthritis seriously restricted her activities and her movie career went into rapid decline. She was diagnosed in 1992, after suffering "unbearable" pain for about a year. By the time she was diagnosed, she "could hardly turn her head or walk, and was told she would end up in a wheelchair".[3] As the disease worsened and the medication greatly altered Turner's looks along with excess alcohol consumption that Turner said she used to kill her physical pain, her once promising film career as a leading lady took a nose dive and Turner was seen less and less in blockbusters—though Turner has also blamed her age, stating "when I was forty the roles started slowing down, I started getting offers to play mothers and grandmothers..." She appeared in the low-budget House of Cards, experienced moderate success with John Waters' Serial Mom, and had supporting roles in A Simple Wish, The Real Blonde, and Sofia Coppola's acclaimed The Virgin Suicides. Remission Despite drug therapy to help her condition, the disease progressed for about eight years. Then, thanks to newly available treatments, her arthritis went into remission. She was seen increasingly on television, including two episodes of Friends, where she appeared as Chandler Bing's transsexual father. She also provided the voice of Malibu Stacy creator Stacy Lovell on the episode "Lisa vs. Malibu Stacy" on The Simpsons. She played a defense attorney on Law & Order. |
