Betty on it
Photobucket

Her MySpace headline says it all: “Home is where the party is.”

Although she’s barely old enough to drink, those that dare identify Deejay Betty’s age as a sign of weakness or inexperience better think again.

After all, how many DJs do you know who were spinning live on a radio mix show at 18?
While spinning five nights a week at times proves the AGN resident party rocker’s popularity and demand, spinning records is not her hobby, it’s her career and a microcosm of life itself.

“When you’re fully dedicated to what you do, there is no time for anything else,” she said.
Does she feel any undeserved hype or unfair criticism because she’s a chick in the male dominated industry? Hell no. Say what you want, just don’t ever sweat her technique.

“No one really cares,” she said. “If you’re good, you’re good. If you’re not good, you don’t get hired. That’s that. I’m actually not cocky. I’m just confident.”

Confident indeed.
