Lezlie Deane (born June 1, 1964) is an American singer, musician, rollerderby athlete, and actress who has starred in film, made television appearances and has toured the world as a rock musician. She was once best known for her roles in horror films including 976-EVIL, Girlfriend from Hell (1989), and the hit horror movie Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare (1991) in the role of Tracy, and also her association with the controversial Dance-Pop band, Fem2Fem; however, her current band Scary Cherry and the Bang Bangs has created quite a buzz in the Glam Punk, #Glitterpunk, Glitter Rock Revival and Rock world where they have achieved cult status as well as winning an Independent Music Award (Vox Populi “voice of the people”) for best rock song "Don't Wanna".
Deane was born Leslie Denise Lonon, (the "s" in her first name being a typo by the hospital where she was born) in Corsicana, Texas. Aside from her big screen roles, Deane has made guest appearances on such television shows as The Bronx Zoo, 21 Jump Street, Hunter, Freddy's Nightmares, Dynasty, and Pacific Blue. She was also once a member of the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders squad, but was fired after 6 weeks for punching a choreographer.
In the 1990s she was recruited by producers Peter Rafelson and Michael Lewis to join the dance-pop group Fem2Fem, and toured Europe and North America as an opening act for Nine Inch Nails (NIN) and Marilyn Manson. Songs from their second album, Animus, generated three top-40 singles, including "Obsession" and "Where Did Love Go?", reaching #1 on the British import charts. After touring with NIN, Lezlie recorded early demos of songs (that would be revealed later in her current band) with musicians Josh Freese, Danny Lohner, and Robyn Finck. Fem2Fem is also remembered for an appearance in PLAYBOY magazine.
