Early life
Elice, the middle child of three children, was born in Houston, Texas. She was raised as a Southern Baptist; Elice has an older brother named Daniel and a younger sister named Valerie. Both siblings are, or have been, in the entertainment industry. Her sister Valerie did a few commercials for American television, while her brother did some minor acting for a few TV shows in America as well. Elice is the only one out of the three to pursue a music career.

Unlike her siblings, Elice went to private school due to personal preferences. In high school, she participated in the National Show Choir and she also did ballet. Elice has said that she was not initially interested in singing; she was into the dancing and acting. Elice only became more interested in music after a music producer watched her audition for a musical in New York City in the summer of 2006.

Early career
Elice returned home from New York City in the fall of 2006 determined to pursue a career in music. Prior to recording her debut album, young Elice searched for record labels to sign her. The young star was not successful in finding a label right away. Elice recorded a demo called "Love Life Affair" which was used as an introduction track to record labels she visited. Elice eventually had to move to Los Angeles, where most record labels were located. After months of hard work trying to find a record deal, Elice decided to put music on hold and return to university.

In the fall of 2007, Elice moved to London, UK to pursue her studies in psychology. Even though she was busy with university, Elice decided to give another shot at looking for a record deal. In the winter of 2007, Elice found an independent label willing to sign her. The small deal was for an opening single only. The deal however, fell through as the label went bankrupt. In 2008, Elice was introduced to an Alias Records' boss by a friend. At first they were reluctant to give her a shot, but they ultimately decided to give the ambitious new singer a try. Elice released her first single "Broken Bridge" with Alias, but was later offered a better deal by Saturdays Records.

Strictly Confidential era
Elice's debut single "Broken Bridge" was released on 28 April 2008 and it proved to be a major hit in the UK. The single peaked at number-two on the UK singles chart. To follow up, Elice decided to release an upbeat summer track titled "102 Degrees". Due to schedule conflicts, miss-communication between Elice and her label Alias, the single was scrapped in the UK. The song was later released in United States, where it became a minor hit. The original release for Elice's debut album, Strictly Confidential was set for June 2008 in the UK, but due to continuous issues with Alias Records, the album's release in the UK was scrapped and Elice returned to North America, where she scored a deal with Universal Music.

WWIII
On the week of 15 June 2008, a strange feud rose out of nowhere. Although it is unknown how this feud started, Elice was dragged into it.

Both Henning and China founded the label Saturdays Records, where Elice was part of the rooster.

Feuds
When pop singer Elice entered the music industry, she had a small clash with pop train wreck Camilla Holmes. The singer who calls herself a "hit maker" first met Elice in a coffee shop in London.

The video, which was later posted on TMZ's official website gained more than a million views in a matter of hours. After the fight, Elice asked security to escort Rossi out of the party, by calling the singer "trash" and telling her not to bother speaking to her ever again. The following day, it was discovered that Elice cell phone and wallet were stolen at her party. The media speculated that Rossi stole her best friend's belonging in order to get back at her. On that same day, nude pictures of Elice leaked online. Singer’s Alesha and Paris both received the intimate pictures on their personal e-mails, which led to believe that Rossi or someone famous was behind the leak. Elice was the last to know about the incident, as she had lost her cell phone and was unable to speak to her PR all day. During her press conference with Chanel that day, Elice was humiliated by Chanel execs when they revealed to the public that the press was cancelled due to Elice’s nude pictures leak. The singer immediately cancelled all promotion in the UK and Europe and headed back to the United States to be with her fiancé. On 8 June 2011, gossip and news outlets posted a list of suspects behind the leak.

Singer and friend Ben Johnston showed support for Elice and spoke about Saturdays Records decision to cancel the single in North America. Ben’s sympathetic message to Elice caused even more drama, as Ben’s friend/lover Victor Strong claimed to have found nude pictures of Elice in Johnston’s cell phone. The drama escalated even more after singers Troy Rivers and Danelle Becker spoke in regards to the nude leaks that same day. Elice reputation tarnished even more after her PR manager tried to fix things by claiming that the allegedly woman in the nude pictures was in fact not Elice. The hacker went on to leak even more pictures after her PR’s announcement. On 9 June 2011, Elice’s friends Flaming Steffy and Ace Reject member Nicola O'Neill revealed personal details about the singer to the media in order to try to stop further negative press. Steffy revealed to TMZ that the singer was in a bad state after she had lost a deal to become the spokesperson for an upcoming fragrance by Chanel. Steffy also revealed that she feared that Elice was suicidal. After speaking to Elice, Nicola O’Neill tried to defend the singer by asking the press to back off. O'Neill revealed to the press that Elice had just spit up with her fiancé. On the same day, was Elice seen arriving at a hotel in New York City to meet with Chanel execs. On that night, Elice updated her website explaining that she was indeed replaced as the spokesperson for an upcoming Chanel fragrance and also took responsibility for her nude pictures. According to the singer, the pictures were never meant to be seen by anyone. On 10 June 2011, news soutlets revealed that Elice had hired private investigators to track the leaker of her nude photos. Investigators were tracking e-mails sent to Paris and Alesha. Investigators were also watching security footage from Elice’s album release party to find out who stole the singer’s phone. A list of suspects including: Helena Rossi, Danelle Becker, Troy Rivers, Camilla Holmes, Saturdays Records Execs and Victor Strong were all under investigation. On that night, it was revealed that investigators were able to find the person responsible for the leak, but they needed more incriminating evidence to be able to seek legal closure. After days of investigation, Elice's private investigators found the person responsible for the leak and had enough evidence to incriminate the individual. On 15 June 2011, CNN reported that Elice's PR manager was the person responsible for leaking her pictures.
