PStar performs at the White HouseI couldn’t pass this one up.‚  15 year-old Priscilla Diaz— a.k.a. P-Star— has been in the music business since she was 9, with the backing (pushing?) of her dad/manager, Jesse. Daughter and dad were in town this week to promote‚  P-Star Rising, a documentary about her, um, early years. Filmmaker Gabriel Noble shot his first footage when Priscilla was nine.‚  In a packed New York club.‚  At midnight.‚  At the time, the family was living in a shelter. She’s now a regular on The Electric Company.‚  The film screens on public TV on Feb. 9.
