Terra Jole Facts/Biography, Parents

Terra Jolé Odmark was born on May 25, 1980 in Comal County, Texas. His parents are called Richard Odmark and Isabel Odmark. His father Richard lost his life to alcoholism.

During her high school days, Jole sang in the choir and wanted to be a Hollywood star early on. She pursued her dreams as fast as she could, but it was not without difficulties and challenges that her dwarfism worsened.

Even before arriving in Hollywood, Jole went through a lot of heartaches and disappointments growing up, all because of her size. She was once denied a spot on a high school choir show because she was too short.

Jole in 2001 decided to move to Los Angelespursue a singing career. Luckily for her, she came across a message saying that True Life, a hit MTV documentary series, was looking to cast midgets with unusual jobs or already working in the entertainment industry.

Jole called the producers to tell them about her dream of becoming a singer and they were immediately impressed, so much so that they were ready to send a crew to San Antonio to film her trip to Los Angeles.

Jole left for LA with just $200 in savings, while in Los Angeles, the True Life crew followed her tour as she struggled to find her place in new surroundings. While looking for a job in Hollywood, Jole had several odd jobs to support herself. She worked as a medical insurance underwriter among other jobs. She dragged herself between LA and her native San Antonio after landing a job as a canine groomer.

Jole revealed that during these times she makes the most money from reselling thrift store products with a focus on signature Louis Vuitton pieces. She sold the pieces online on eBay and once made $1,200 selling a two-piece set of Louis Vuitton luggage. It was his biggest sale.

Jole went on to create other Minis, including MiniMadonna, Mini Katey Perry and Mini Lady Gaga. In December 2009, Jole began to attract the attention of celebrities, including rapper T-Pain and Britney Spears, who both wanted her to perform on tour. However, Jole missed Britney’s tour if she had already started working with T-Pain before Ms. Spears came knocking.

Previously, Jole made her film debut in the 2008 film Midgets vs. Mascots. Jole then birthed the idea for a reality TV show focusing on petite women which she originally dubbed Little Ladies Los Angeles. She selected the cast for the show from other petite women she had met on her trip to Los Angeles.

She registered the show’s potential name LittleMesdames: LA with the Writers Guild of America. As Jole and her ladies prepared to shoot the first episode, many networks became interested in reshooting the show. Lifetime signed the deal and premiered the show on May 27, 2014, and the rest, as they say, is history.

The show was later renamed Little Women and today it has become a spin-off generating franchises in Dallas, New York and Atlanta.

In 2014, Jole made her second film appearance in The Hangover Games. Capitalizing on her fame, Terra released her debut single “Booty Bee” followed by “Ima Let You Know”. She released her debut album Penny’s Playlist in 2016. Dedicated to her daughter, this album contains only children’s songs.

While her journey to fame might seem smooth, Jole has had to deal with some personal issues. In her aforementioned book, Jole revealed that she had previously been arrested for drunk driving and had to spend a night in jail. She was hit with a $10,000 fine and had to serve 30 hours of community service. She was also ordered to attend required AA meetings and sobriety classes.
