Gina Rodriguez is an actress, media personality, and entertainment manager known for her work with controversial clients such as Octomom, Michael Lohan, Capri Anderson and more.[1][2]
She was born Gina Delia on November 15, 1967, and was raised in the San Fernando Valley. At the age of 16 she started taking modeling and acting classes at Marilyn Shore Studios.[3]
At the age of 21, Rodriguez married Richard Snail who worked on TV shows "Big Love" and "Zoey 101", and the couple had two children. Her son Chris Snail is an actor, musician and filmmaker and her daughter Brandilyn Snail is an actress and make up artist. Both appeared with her in the reality TV show Mommy XXX.[4] She divorced and remarried, to Rod Rodriguez, a police detective who has appeared on "Robbery Homicide Division" (2002) as a police officer and technical advisor. They also divorced. Her third husband is adult actor Randy Spears who has appeared in over 6,000 adult movies. Rodriguez herself then entered the adult entertainment world, taking on the professional name Demi Delia.[3][5][6] In 1991-1992, she appeared in Playboy's Newsstands Specials and several car magazines.
As Delia, Rodriguez appeared in fewer than 40 adult films, mostly for Wicked Pictures and Vivid Video.[7] She has also appeared in Baywatch, Robbery Homicide Division, and Girl with the Sex-Ray Eyes.[3] Rodriguez wrote a script for a Penthouse movie, My Imaginary Life, which won Best Comedy at the AVN Awards 2008.[3] She and her husband started Spears Productions and went on to produce several Wicked Pictures Features and Penthouse Vignettes. She left the business in 2008.
Rodriguez and her children then starred in the reality show Mommy XXX. The show was created by Sony Pictures Television and Teru Media, and ran for 13 episodes. In 2010, it was nominated as "Best New Reality WebSeries" at the Streamy Awards.[8]
Next, Rodriguez created her own management company, DD Entertainment, representing notorious Hollywood mistresses. She has since appeared on ABC News Nightline, Entertainment Tonight, Extra, NBC News Los Angeles, World News Tonight, and Geraldo at Large.[3] [9] In 2010 she created the The Girls Of Scandal Tour, [10] which involved the mistresses attempting to humiliate the celebrity 'cheaters' (i.e. having Tiger Woods' mistress Joslyn James strip at a Gentlemen's Club following Tiger's PGA Tour.)[11] Rodriguez has also worked with attorney Gloria Allred with several of the mistresses. In 2011 she created the 'Mistress Makeovers', where the mistresses received cosmetic surgery from Hollywood surgeons in exchange for media coverage, and also underwent life coaching sessions, fitness, nutrition and styling. [12]
DD Entertainment has represented controversial media figures and reality TV stars, including Octomom, Michael Lohan, Dina Lohan, Tila Tequila, Michaele Salahi, Tareq Salahi, Neal Schon, Kate Major, Alex McCord, Simon Van Kempen, Danielle Staub, and Adam Barta.[1][2] In 2011, Rodriguez started working for Lionsgate Television, as a reality TV producer. In 2012, she launched DialAStar.com in 2012 a phone service which allows fans to phone celebrities.[13]

Demi is a prefix meaning "half", loaned from French; for example, demi frere which means "half brother" or demi soeur which means "half sister". Demi-glace is made by simmering and reducing by half a mixture of half brown stock and half espagnole sauce.
Demi also has Latin roots as a feminine given name, originally a nickname form of Demetria, the feminine form of the masculine name Demetrius, which is itself the Latin and English spelling of Greek name Demetrios.
Demi is uncommon as a surname. People with the given name Demi include:
Ödemiş is a district of İzmir Province of Turkey, as well as the name of its central town (urban population 75,577 as of 2012), located 113 km southeast of the city of İzmir.
About 4 km north of Ödemiş town are the ruins of Hypaepa. The historical importance of the region is also reflected by the small town of Birgi, east of Ödemiş, which was the capital of the Anatolian Turkish Beylik of Aydın and it has outstanding examples of Seljük and Ottoman architecture. Birgi has been on the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage list since 1994, and points of interest here include Çakırağa Mansion, İmam-i Birgivi Medrese and Sultanşah Mausoleum. Ödemiş is famous for its potatoes, which has the best quality in Turkey, as well as its "Ödemiş Kebab".

Demi is the fourth studio album by American singer Demi Lovato. It was released on May 10, 2013, by Hollywood Records. Looking to transition from her self-described "generic" third album Unbroken (2011), Lovato wanted to make her fourth album to "have songs that excited her". The album incorporates pop with elements of synthpop, and bubblegum pop. The album was recorded between 2012 and 2013, when Lovato served as a judge on the second season from the American version of The X Factor.
Demi received generally favorable reviews from music critics, who complimented Lovato's vocal performance. The album debuted number three on the US Billboard 200 with the first-week sales of 110,000 copies—the highest first-week album sales of Lovato's career. The album also reached the top five in Canada, Ireland, Italy, Mexico and Spain. The album's lead single, "Heart Attack" peaked at number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100, marking Lovato's third US top 10 single. Second single "Made in the USA" peaked at number 80, while later singles "Neon Lights" and "Really Don't Care" both reached the top 40 peaking at 36 and 26.
[On Your Knees]
Dancing with danger right until dawn
The sin that you buy and you sell
Mom and daddy said "the life that you've led,
You'll party you're way straight to hell"
On Your knees,
You shall be on your knees
Cause I want you on your knees
You shall be on your knees
And I need you on your knees
You shall be on your knees
Cause I want you on your knees
You shall be on your knees
Playing with fire, lust in you burns
Reflecting the flames in your eyes
Sex and pain insane, they're really the same
Misused and confused, bound and tied
On Your knees
You shall be on your knees
Cause I want you on your knees
You shall be on your knees
And I need you on your knees
You shall be on your knees
Cause I want you on your knees
You shall be on your knees
On your knees that's where you all shall be
Well I bid you come taste your first deadly sin
Riding the wild wind and the door to submission
Will open and you shall fall in
[I Don? t Need No Doctor]
I don't need no doctor
'Cause I know what's ailing me
I don't need no doctor
'Cause I know what's ailing me
All I need is my baby
You don't know I'm in misery
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
My prescription tells me that
I don't need no doctor
My prescription tells me that
All I need is my baby
You don't know I'm in misery
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
Well the doctor said I need rest- ooh ooh
He put me on the critical list- ooh ooh
Keeping me safe from harm- ooh ooh
All I need is her sweet charm- ooh ooh
He gave me a medicated lotion, that wouldn't do
Ooh, yeah my emotion, oh yeah, no doctor no!
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
I don't need no doctor
[Hellion]
Hell-hound, hot leather on your legs
That smoking powder keg you're riding on is hell-bound
And you're the one they claim
It's going down in flames
You're riding Hades' rails (Hellion)
Hellion, The devil's Hellion child
Hellion, will never have to die
Well child, you're sweatin' and you're stoned
That alcohol you downed makes you crazy-
All night, you damn the hurt and pain
And drink the devils rain
It's screaming out your name
Hellion, The devil's Hellion child
Hellion, will never have to die
The Gods you worship are steel
At the altar of rock 'n' roll you kneel
A slave who forever rocks
Is chained in the devil's locks
And slain by the bloody axe I wail
[Chainsaw Charlie (Murders In The New Morgue)]
O.K. boy now here's your deal
Will you gamble your life?
Sign right here on the dotted line
It's the one you've waited for all of your life
Ah - will it feed my hunger
If I swallow lies right down my throat?
Or will it choke me till I'm raw?
And tomorrow when I'm gone
Will they whore my image on?
I'll will my throne away, to a virgin heir and Charlie's slave
Murders, murders in the new morgue
murders, murders in the new morgue
See old Charlie and the platinum armies
Making me their boy
Murders, murders in the new morgue
Murders, murders in the new morgue
He'll make ya scream for the cash machine
Down in Chainsaw Charlie's morgue
We'll sell your flesh by the pound you'll go
A whore of wrath just like me
We'll sell ya wholesale, we'll sell your soul
Strap on your six string and feed our machine
Ah - will it feed my hunger
f I swallow lies right down my throat?
Or will it choke me till I'm raw?
And tomorrow when I'm gone
Will they whore my image on?
I'll will my throne away, to a virgin heir and Charlie's slave
Welcome to the morgue boy
Where the music comes to die
Welcome to the morgue son
I'll cut your throat just to stay alive
Ah, trust me boy
I won't steer you wrong
If you trust me son
