Early life
Since performing on stage for the first time at age 5, O'Day has had a love for entertaining. "I lived on the stage, and even at six, slept behind the seats of the theatre," she stated in an interview. According to her mother, when O'Day was 6, she was at a performance of The Nutcracker and started to cry. Her mother asked her during intermission what was wrong; O'Day relates that moment as "officially" realizing her love for entertainment.[2]
O'Day pursued her love of performing through years with various leads in musical productions including Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, Carmen in Fame, Sandy in Grease, Liesl in The Sound of Music, Tzeitel in Fiddler on the Roof, Mimi in Rent, etc. O'Day attended La Quinta High School in the early 2000s. She later attended the University of California, Irvine and was a member of the Alpha Chi Omega Sorority.[2]

O'Day was discovered on the MTV reality show Making the Band 3, founded by Sean "Diddy" Combs, and emerged as the show's breakout star.[1] Danity Kane's album debuted on August 22 2006, at #1 on the Billboard 200 charts.[3] Danity Kane was the opening act for Christina Aguilera on the U.S. leg of her Back to Basics Tour with the Pussycat Dolls.[4]
O'Day walked the catwalk at Heatherette's Fall 2007 runway show at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week held on February 6. She recorded a song with R&B singer Cupid written and produced by D. Harold; Mischke, and T. Thomas , whose title is "Do Yo Dance" which is the new single from Cupid's album "Time For A Change," although she was later replaced on the album with another female singer.
