Information on Nelly Furtado |
| She may only be 22-years-old
and have just one album 'under her belt', but that hasn't kept Canadian

had one song crack the top ten and that album -remains- on the Billboard
Top 50. She's toured with Lilith Fair, Moby's Area: One Festival and
U2... but 190 North's Lou Canellis caught up with her at Kiss-FM's
Star Party in Rosemont this summer. To find out more about Nelly Furtado,
