Lilian Garcia is a multi-talented international recording artist, broadcaster and globally-recognised television personality as a beloved member of the WWE family for over two decades. Lilian was the first female and Latina to ever announce WrestleMania, holds the record for signing the most times at WrestleMania, and is also the first female in-cage announcer for the Professional Fighters League. Passionate about giving back to her community through charity work and guided by her faith, Lilian was named as an official spokesperson for breast cancer organisation the Susan G. Komen Foundation in 2013, and has performed the national anthem at several of their events, including New York City’s Race for the Cure. #liliangarcia #attitudeera #wwe #wwf #wrestlemania #smackdown BE INSPIRED! Lilian joins Ben Veal for episode 22 of 'Good Journeys with Second Mountain' to share her personal journey of faith, self-discovery and finding joy in life. In this candid, honest conversation, Lilian talks about losing both her parents and her marriage, rediscovering her faith life and identity, and being part of the worship team community at Mariner's Church in California. As WWE's 'history maker', Lilian also shares memories of her time in the colourful world of professional wrestling, including her unforgettable chemistry with The Rock, coming into the WWF during its 'Attitude Era' heyday, kicking off WrestleMania more times than legendary queen of soul Aretha Franklin at WrestleMania, and singing the American national anthem on the truly unforgettable episode of WWF Smackdown that took place just two days after the 9/11 attacks.
