Brandy Norwood may have ruled the '90s, but life hasn't always been easy for this much-loved singer and actress. From fearsome feuds to health scares to the loss of her idol and mentor, these are the tragic details of Brandy's life. Finding fame during childhood is never easy, as Brandy knows all too well. In an interview with Rolling Stone, she looked back on the difficulties she faced early in her career, explaining: "I had to grow up in front of the public. I didn't get a chance to make private mistakes and really discover my own voice without having to deal with everyone else's voices and thoughts and opinions about the things that I was doing." As a young actress with little experience, Brandy landed her first major acting role as the title character's daughter on the television show Thea — a landmark in TV history, since it was the first time a Black female comedian had a show named after her. Just a few years later, Brandy herself would star as the title character on Moesha, following the trail first blazed by Thea. But in that first onscreen role, Brandy felt entirely out of place, later telling Rolling Stone: "I had a difficult time on Thea because I never dreamed of being an actress. I thought everyone was light years ahead of me."
