Biography
Brandy Norwood (born February 11, 1979) is an American singer, songwriter, and actress regarded as an influential figure in contemporary R&B. Born into a musical family in McComb, Mississippi, and raised in Carson, California, she began as a backing vocalist before signing to Atlantic Records. Her debut album Brandy (1994) spawned three US Billboard Hot 100 top-ten singles: "I Wanna Be Down", "Baby", and "Brokenhearted". She became a television star with her lead role on UPN's Moesha (1996–2001) and appeared as Cinderella in Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella (1997).
Never Say Never (1998) established her as a commercial force—the album's "The Boy Is Mine" (with Monica) spent thirteen weeks at number one and won both artists their first Grammy Award. She explored sonic boundaries with Full Moon (2002) and Afrodisiac (2004), served as a judge on America's Got Talent (2006), and released the pop-leaning Human (2008). After a Dancing with the Stars appearance in 2010, she released Two Eleven (2012), made her Broadway debut in Chicago (2015), and returned to recording with B7 (2020) and Christmas with Brandy (2023). She has sold 17 million albums and singles in the US and holds Grammy and American Music Award recognitions. In 2026, she received a Hollywood Walk of Fame star and published her memoir Phases. As an Aquarius born on this date, her creative reinvention mirrors the sign's experimental nature.
