Beauties From The 90s: 11 Photos That Prove Mya Doesn’t Age

Today, we celebrate the 45th birthday of the ageless Mya, a singer/songwriter who seems to have discovered the secret to eternal youth. Her Grammy award-winning status is not the only thing that defies time. Her radiant smile and flawless skin make it hard to believe she’s not a day over 30. Each time her image graces our timelines, we’re reminded that age is truly just a number.

Mya made her grand entrance into the music world in 1998, a time when Tommy Hilfiger overalls, clunky heel shoes, baggy jeans, and plaid prints were the fashion staples. She joined the ranks of iconic artists like Missy Elliott, Aaliyah, TLC, Destiny’s Child, and Lil Kim, and her debut single, It’s All About Me, featuring Dru Hill, became an instant anthem for self-assured women. I remember seeing the DC native in her music video for that single and thinking how adorable she was. Fast-forward 26 years, and the entertainer is still just as fly as ever, with a snatched, grown-woman swag that can’t be denied.

Mya Celebrates her 45th Birthday Looking As Young As Ever

Mya cemented herself as one of the megastars who will forever be synonymous with the renowned 90s vibe. Her hit song “The Best of Me” will always be a jam that captures that period’s aura so perfectly. And to see the entertainer still making music and looking the same as she did when she first started in the industry is impressive. In a 2019 interview featured in HelloBeauitful, the professional dancer revealed that her youthful skin can be attributed to her strict, healthy diet. “For great skin, it’s inside out,” the singer revealed. “Drinking lots of water as well as lots of natural juices. Trying to get away from the sugars, which will break you out.” 

Mya’s anti-aging life is remarkable, and to celebrate her 45th birthday and prove that she is bathing in the fountain of youth, check out the ten photos of her beauty below.
