Personal History:
Colette grew up in Paris. By the time she was old enough to walk her mother took her to see opera once every two weeks. When Colette reached age 6 she told her mother she wanted to be an opera singer. Her mother took her to the opera more often and her father amused by the young child's ambition bought her opera pieces and taught her how to read music. Unfortunately for Colette whenever she practiced singing she couldn't reach the high notes, but she never gave up on her dream.
When she was old enough to try out her parents left for America . Colette wanted to go with them, but her parents told her to go after her dreams. Colette's grandmother had a place only a block from the Opera House and before Colette tried out she stayed there.
Colette didn't get her dream, but the managers hired her as a chorus girl, and she took to ballet as if she was born to dance. She would have made friends, but being new, most of the ballerinas didn't talk to her. Only Meg approached her and befriended her and the two became best friends.
Colette is a skeptic and doesn't believe the Phantom exists. She always teases Meg when she gossips about the Phantom and also constantly makes fun of Carlotta. She likes to make faces at Carlotta at rehearsal when the ballerina's have to leave the stage. Colette now basically lives at the Opera House and hardly ever leaves. She spends a lot of time in her dressing room singing to herself never giving up on her dreams.
