Tuesday, February 16, 2010 17:15 GMT
LOS ANGELES (Wireless Flash - FlashNews) – Actress Melora Hardin is a performing powerhouse, and she wants everyone to know it.Hardin, who plays Jan Levinson on The Office, is showing off her singing skills with the release of her record, All The Way To Mars.
Though she’s done musicals on Broadway, Hardin is now hoping to make herself known to the whole world, not just followers of the Big White Way.
She says, “I made the record so people could see that I’m truly a triple threat. I really am an actress, singer, and dancer. People don’t know that about me.”
Along with Broadway showtunes, Hardin says she’s heavily influenced by everyone from Barbara Streisand to the Bay City Rollers.
She’s looking forward to eventually touring in support of her album, though she won’t be slumming it in a tour van since she’s still keeping her day job as an actress, mom, and wife.
