Several recent B&B episodes have showcased Adrienne's original songs, and she was tapped to co-write and perform the title song for Jimmy Zip.

By the time she was thirteen, all of Detroit had become familiar with Adrienne's rendition of "The Star Spangled Banner," which she performed at numerous Pistons, Neons and Viper games.
At age sixteen, Adrienne left Michigan for New York City, where she landed numerous commercials. Soon she was chosen to do vocals for the Movie of the Week production of Bye, Bye Birdie, which starred Jason Alexander among others. While enrolled in her freshman year at Marymount College in New York City, Adrienne won the role of Tiffany on Aaron Spelling's new daytime drama, Sunset Beach.
