The Love Life of a Mystery Woman: Mýa Tells All (Well, Almost)
Melyssa Ford sits down with the one and only Mýa—Grammy-winning singer, actress, and eternal mystery woman. For decades she’s been the industry’s quiet storm: dazzling, disciplined, and just elusive enough to keep everyone guessing. In this episode, Mýa peels back the curtain (but only as much as she wants to) to talk spirituality, her plant-based lifestyle, and why being vegan is way more than just a diet. And yes—we get into the big one: dating. Is she single? What does love look like for someone who’s mastered the art of keeping her private life… private?
It’s soulful, a little spicy, and still wrapped in the kind of mystique that only Mýa can pull off. Because let’s be honest—figuring her out might be impossible, but listening to her here feels like getting closer than ever.
