The early 2000s saw Mya‘s star rise quickly. Singing the hook on 1998’s GRAMMY-nominated Ghetto Superstar alongside Ol’ Dirty Bastard on Pras, the R&B Singer would become known for hits like Case of the Ex, It’s All About Me, My Love is Like…Wo and Best of Me, before scoring a GRAMMY together with Lil Kim, P!nk and Christina Aguilera for their 2001 cover of Labelle’s Lady Marmalade. The Track topped the Billboard Hot 100 Chart for five weeks.
Since then Mya had a minor role in 2002’s Oscar-winning Best Picture CHICAGO and placed second on season nine of Dancing with the Stars, releasing music independently on her own Planet 9 label. She actively promotes on her Social Media healthy living and the vegan lifestyle. Check-out Mya‘s Instagram here.
She is in town this weekend to perform at TD Bank’s Black Diamond Ball celebrating accomplishments of Black Canadians, timed during Black History Month.
While visiting, Mya made the most of her time and did some TV appearances including CITY’s Breakfast Television, Entertainnent Tonight Canada, eTalk and Your Morning. We got to meet her and she was just as sweet as imagined and stunning in emerald green! She was even holding a Tim Hortons Roll-Up The Rim cup! 🍁
