Joanna “JoJo” Levesque is a chart-topping and multi-platinum recording artist, actress and – most recently – a New York Times Best Selling author. This past fall, the first-time author released her memoir, Over The Influence, via Hachette Books to critical praise. In January, JoJo unveiled a new EP NGL, which echoes many of the themes covered in her New York Times Best Selling memoir. Both the book and the EP are a testament to her resilience and a celebration of her ability to overcome adversity.
At just 13 years old, JoJo burst onto the scene with her self-titled debut album, whose breakout smash “Leave (Get Out)” made her the youngest-ever solo artist to have a debut #1 single in the U.S. That album went on to sell over four million copies and became the singer’s first Platinum record, which she followed with a string of additional accomplishments, including another #1 single, “Too Little Too Late” and another Platinum album, The High Road. Since then, she’s released several critically acclaimed studio albums, EPs, and mixtapes.
In 2020, JoJo’s song with PJ Morton, “Say So,” won a Grammy Award for Best R&B Song. JoJo has also appeared in movies such as Aquamarine and RV (opposite Robin Williams), and most recently played Satine in Broadway’s Tony Award-winning Moulin Rouge! The Musical. JoJo is currently developing an original piece of musical theater.
