    Early Life and Education

    Wanessa Camargo was born on December 28, 1982 in Goiânia, Brazil to businesswoman Zilú and singer Zezé, who later formed the musical duo Zezé Di Camargo & Luciano with his brother. At the age of nine, Camargo moved with her family to São Paulo. There, she started a band with three of her friends called the Fenders. The group was soon renamed Neon, and began performing at clubs and parties. In 1993, Camargo started studying theater and dance; she later took up gymnastics. At the age of 16 in 1998, she was the target of a kidnapping that went awry when the kidnappers mistakenly took her uncle instead. Following another attack, at her school, Camargo moved with her family to Plantation, Florida for a year.

    Albums and Singles

    In 2000, Camargo signed with BMG Brasil and released her debut single, "O Amor Não Deixa." The single debuted at number one in Brazil, and was included on Camargo's self-titled debut album a month later. Camargo went on to release her second self-titled album in late 2001; its lead single was "Eu Quero Ser o Seu Amor." The album also spawned the singles "Tanta Saudade" and "Gostar de Mim." Camargo released a third self-titled album in late 2002. Two years later, she released her first live album, "Transparente Ao Vivo." That was followed in 2005 by the studio album "W," which contained the successful singles "Amor, Amor" and "Não Resisto a Nós Dois." In 2007, Camargo began going by the mononymous stage name Wanessa, and released her fifth studio album, "Total."

    Camargo released her sixth studio album, "Meu Momento," in 2009; it spawned her first English-language single, "Fly," featuring rapper Ja Rule. She then transitioned to electronic music in 2010 with her debut EP "Você não Perde por Esperar." The following year, Camargo released her seventh studio album, "DNA," which was her first to be completely in English. She didn't release another studio album until 2016, with "33." That album earned mostly negative reviews from critics, who lamented Camargo for "selling out." However, the album spawned the successful single "Coração Embriagado." Camargo went on to release her ninth studio album, "Universo Invertido," in 2020.
