Piano

She can play the piano Abramlight12 (talk) 21:54, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

She is not known as a pianist. To put an instrument in the infobox it needs to be an instrument that is closely associated with her. Lots of musicians can play a variety of instruments but all of them aren't included in the infoboxes. For example, Paul McCartney played drums on some Beatles and solo songs, but he is not known as a drummer. Sundayclose (talk) 22:04, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
