Alisan Porter | Curly Sue’s Child-Star Breakthrough, Steve Martin’s Parenthood & Winning The Voice

Alisan Porter joins Taboo’s Comics and Kicks for a nostalgic deep dive into her journey from child star to powerhouse singer. She looks back on Curly Sue feeling like her true child-star breakthrough, working with John Hughes and Jim Belushi, and making her first feature film in Parenthood alongside Steve Martin, Mary Steenburgen, Ron Howard, Joaquin Phoenix, Keanu Reeves, Rick Moranis, and more. Alisan also shares memories from Pee-wee’s Playhouse, The Golden Girls, early-2000s Hollywood nights at Joseph’s, the Spelling Mansion, and the music journey that eventually led her to win The Voice with Christina Aguilera as her coach. From classic movies and child-star stories to motherhood, music, and finding her voice again, this episode is full of 90s nostalgia, Hollywood history, and real behind-the-scenes stories.
