Sister of Genghis and Kublai? Hired by a rock band called Rufus, they shot to stardom on hits like "Tell Me Something Good"; Chaka was a tiny lass with a big voice and, reportedly, an even bigger ego - she went solo, and no tears were shed in either the Khan or Rufus camps. Hits followed, on albums full of Hollywood slickness and clock-punching, but she had eaten herself out of her Rufus-era bare-midriff togs (bequeathed to Janet Jackson). It's good to be the queen. Pass the ketchup.
