songstress

The French-Canadian songstress revealed in late 2022 that, after suffering symptoms for about 17 years, she had been diagnosed with stiff person syndrome, a neurological condition that greatly affects the voice.

The decorated songstress' humble origins began in North Carolina where she was influenced by her musical family and the gospel music of artists like Mahalia Jackson and Sam Cooke.

While declining to delve into “certain details,” the Grammy-winning songstress said, “It definitely doesn’t get any easier, seeing some of the negativity that was birthed by disreputable tabloids.”

The TikTok-savvy songstress has since settled in, even referencing L.A.’s “weeping” mountains, and Sunset Boulevard in a collaboration with the Icelandic Philharmonic called “California and Me.”

And in the words of the songstress herself, that's caused a lot of bad blood.
