STAR BIO
DANCE PARTNER: Jonathan Roberts
PROFESSION:
R&B singer-songwriter
BACKGROUND:
The raspy-voiced soul singer is out to prove she has as much rhythm in her feet as she does in her vocal chords when she takes to a very different stage than she's used to on DWTS Season 9.
Macy Gray first burst onto the music scene with her debut album On How Life Is and the hit single "I Try," both of which went to number one. She has gone on to sell more than 20,000,000 albums worldwide and has won and has been nominated for five Grammy Awards and six MTV Video Music Awards.
Gray has collaborated on stage and in the recording studio with some of music's greatest artists including Justin Timberlake, Carlos Santana, Erykah Badu, Fergie, will.i.am (Black Eyed Peas), John Frusciante (Red Hot Chili Peppers), Nas and Natalie Cole.
Macy has also appeared in numerous films including Spider-Man, Training Day, Idlewild (with Outkast) and the award-winning HBO Film Lackawanna Blues.
