Kehlani is an American singer and songwriter who is also quite a good dancer. She was first recognized as part of a group, but soon her single star shone brightly, winning her personal fame and popularity. Kehlani’s outspokenness as a person has endeared her to many, who have become fans of the brave woman who is rarely afraid to say what exactly is on her mind. For fans and people who are just learning about this talented person, below we are going to look at some details about her life.
Kehlani’s Bio (Age, Ethnicity)
Kehlani’s full name is Kehlani Ashley Parrish and she was born on April 24, 1995. Born in Oakland, California, she is ethnically diverse with a mix of Native American, Black, White, Hispanic, and Filipino. Her mother gave her the White, Hispanic, and Native American mix while her father represents the African American heritage. Her parents had drug problems that led to her father’s death and her mother’s imprisonment when she was younger. She was adopted by an aunt who raised her in her mother’s prison.
She went to school at the Oakland School for the Arts, where she studied dance, concentrating on ballet and modern dance. She had a dream of training as a dancer at the Julliard School, but a knee injury while still in high school stymied that dream and prompted her to redirect her energies towards music. Living with her aunt brought her into contact with musical genres such as neo-soul and RnB.
At the age of 14, Kehlani joined a local pop group that performed as a cover band and went by the name of PopLyfe. In the sixth season of America’s Got Talent, PopLyfe placed fourth. It was first sight for her, but she left the band after a series of arguments and became homeless between 2012 and 2013, forcing her to keep moving from home to home.
She got another opportunity to make it big as part of a group when America’s Got Talent host Nick Cannon invited her to join a rap group. She initially agreed to the plan and stayed in California, but soon moved back to Oakland after quitting the rap group because she didn’t like the direction the group was taking.
Her next project was her first solo ‘ANTISUMMERLUV’ released on SoundCloud. Nick Cannon heard the song and called her back, giving her an apartment in Los Angeles and studio time to record and release her first mixtape, which was called Cloud 19 in 2014. In 2015, she released a second mixtape called You Should Be Here, which shot to number 5 on the US Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.Following the success of the second mixtape, Kehlani, was signed to Atlantic Records. She received her first Grammy Award nomination in 2016 for Best Urban Contemporary Album. Kehlani released her debut album SweetSexySavage in 2017 through Atlantic Records.
is she gay
Kehlani’s sexuality was the subject of much speculation before she finally came out publicly to identify as odd and pansexual. In 2018, she clarified in a tweet that she is more queer than bi or straight. She is attracted to both men and women, but especially non-binary, trans, queer, and other pansexual people.
Who is her girlfriend or her boyfriend?
Ever since she rose to fame, Kehlani has been linked to two men. In 2016, she was in a relationship with Kyrie Irving, the NBA star point guard for the Cleveland Cavaliers. In March of that year, Canadian musician PartyNextDoor implied he was involved with Kehlani, prompting Irving to tweet that they had broken up, but that didn’t stop the cloud of anger and hatred that the internet poured out at Kehlani when they suggested that they had cheated. Kehlani tried to kill herself but survived and later took to social media channels to explain that she was not cheating.
The singer hasn’t been in any other celebrity relationships since, so it’s hard to tell who her boyfriend or girlfriend is right now.
