DW: June Adeline Hart "Jae," 25, musicianJune Adeline Hart was kind of a big deal."A Sarah McLachlan for the next generation!" one review raved, despite the fact that Sarah McLachlan was still very much alive and active in the musician community. Others echoed its sentiments, which always rankled Jae; she didn't want to be seen as some kind of replacement vehicle. She had her own drive and vision and wanted to be recognized as such.There was something to be said for the association, of course, that she and Ms. McLachlan shared. The other woman had invited a then-mostly-unknown Jae Hart to perform on her revitalized Lilith Fair Tour, and the publicity had skyrocketed her career. Her big-label debut, Sunrise on a December Morning, had been selling well, and its first single, "Turning it Back," was getting airplay on top-40 radio stations nation-wide. It had also, somehow, gotten her the attentions of Drew Fleming, heir to the Fleming Soap fortune. He'd apparently loved her album so much that he'd made an effort to acquire a backstage pass to a concert on her tour. Jae had meant to sign him an autograph and get him out of there as quickly as possible...but something had clicked, and two hours of chatting passed without either of them noticing.Afterwards, he'd offered another conversation after another concert, and she'd agreed. That was a year ago. It hadn't exactly been a normal courtship--with her schedule, dinner and a movie and a romantic walk afterwards wasn't always possible--but they were both very happy with the situation as it was and the possibilities to come. The tabloids, where Drew had a reputation for being a bit of a mama's boy who didn't take many risks, referred to them as JaeDrew and constantly insinuated that Ms. Hart was a gold-digger. The two blithely ignored allegations from StarNews Magazine and the rest, and when Drew quietly asked Jae the big question, she answered with a smile and a nod...on the back porch of her childhood home, without a camera in sight.They married six months later (with many cameras in sight) and have just been settling into a not-exactly-conventional married life.Array
