Jewel Restaneo

Jewel was born on November 18th, 1991, and her life took an extraordinary turn just two years later when she began performing for live television audiences. By the time she was seven years old, Jewel had already recorded an impressive four CDs and eight music videos in local studios. In fact, her first video, "Where Do I Go", was made when she was just three years old, and at age four, she recorded a Christmas CD to raise money for Children's Hospital in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where her little cousin, Anthony, was being treated for cancer. This Christmas CD, "A Christmas Jewel", triggered national media attention and catapulted Jewel into the national spotlight with a story on the front page of the Wall Street Journal.
