TINA YOTHERS SCORES A HIT WITH `THE SOPRANOS'

LOS ANGELES (Wireless Flash) -- Ex-"Family Ties" cast member Tina Yothers has scored a hit with the mobsters of "The Sopranos." The 27 year old now fronts a seven-piece band, Jaded, that will be featured in upcoming episodes of the HBO mob drama. Yothers and her bandmates won't actually perform, however -- instead their images will appear on posters and flyers in the apartment of Tony Sopranos' kooky sister Janice. Even though couch potatoes won't hear the ex-child star sing, Yothers says she thinks the exposure will be "awesome" for her band.
