Her name is Cymphonique, and she could be Nickelodeon's next teen star.
The cable channel has inked a substantial talent development deal with the 13-year-old actor/singer/dancer to develop series for her or add her to existing projects.
Additionally, Sony Music, which has a partnership with Nickelodeon, has signed Cymphonique to a record deal.
Under the pacts, Cymphonique could star in a comedy/musical or a straight comedy series.
"She is extraordinarily talented for somebody so young," Nickelodeon's executive vp talent Paula Kaplan said. "She has great comedic timing, an amazing voice and is very self-assured."
Additionally, "we have had long history with this family," she added.
Cymphonique is the daughter of Percy Miller, aka Master P, and the sister of actor-rapper Romeo.
Romeo, then billed as Lil' Romeo, was 9 when his father brought him to Nickelodeon. He headlined his own series on the channel for four seasons.
Nickelodeon is entering the comedy/musical series space with two upcoming shows: "Victorious," toplined by "Zoey 101" co-star Victoria Justice, and "Big Time Rush," about a boy band, which launches in January.
Cymphonique, who has appeared in an episode of Nickelodeon's "Just Jordan," was a finalist on Disney Radio's "N.B.T. (Next Big Thing)." She is repped by Fortitude.
