Biography

Born in Los Angeles, California, Phillips began her career in acting. She appeared in films such as 1987's Some Kind of Wonderful, 1988's Caddyshack II, 1989's Say Anything and as the title character Roxanne Pulitzer in the 1989 television biopic Roxanne: The Prize Pulitzer.

In 1995, she returned to acting appearing as Kim MacAfee in the television movie Bye Bye Birdie. In 2004, she voiced the character of Kitty in Danny Phantom.

Music career

In the late 1980s, Phillips formed the trio Wilson Phillips with her childhood friends Carnie and Wendy Wilson. The group released their self-titled debut album in 1990. The album would go on to sell eight million copies.12 The group's second album, Shadows and Light, released in 1992, was a commercial failure despite being certified platinum.3 After the failure of that project, Phillips left the group, citing exhaustion.4

In 1995, Phillips released her debut solo album, Naked and Sacred, but failed to recapture the success she found with Wilson Phillips.2

She became a Christian in 2003.5 In the October 15, 2007 issue of People magazine, she was said to be writing songs for a Christian album.6 She appeared in brother-in-law Stephen Baldwin's documentary Livin It: Unusual Suspects. In 2009, Chynna teamed up with singer/songwriter Vaughan Penn to form the duo "Chynna and Vaughan". The two released their debut album, "One Reason" on September 22, 2009.7

Reunion

In 2004, Wilson Phillips reunited to record their third album California which featured cover tunes from West Coast singers from the 1960s and 1970s.8

Personal life

Phillips has been married to actor William Baldwin since 1995. The couple have three children: daughter Jameson (born 2000), son Vance (born 2002), and daughter Brooke (born 2004).9

Phillips is now a Born Again Christian and performing Christian music with singer songwriter Vaughan Penn.[1]

In September 2009, Chynna's half-sister Mackenzie Phillips alleged in a new memoir that she and her father had a "non-consensual" ten-year incestuous relationship. She stated that the relationship began after John Philips raped her while they were both under the influence of heavy narcotics.10. Both Genevieve Waite, John's wife at the time, and Michelle Phillips, John's second wife, told the media that they did not believe her claims11. However, Chynna Phillips stated on the record that she did believe Mackenzie was telling the truth.12

Chynna Phillips entered rehab for anxiety on Feb. 12, 2010. In a statement made on February 27, her manager Lizzie Grubman said, "After successfully completing her in-patient treatment for anxiety, Chynna Phillips has happily returned home13 to celebrate her daughter's birthday with her family and close friends." Manager Lizzie Grubman claimed Phillips was "happy to be home with her family. She is in great spirits."14
