Mauboy's father is an electrician of Timorese-Indonesian descent, and her mother is an Australian Aboriginal person with roots in the Wakaman and KuKu Yalanji tribes.
Another stella performance from our Jess. She also starred in an award winning series called "The Secret Daughter" She sings in it as well as her first class acting the role of a young innocent girl caught up in the web of a cruel family fued. Worth a look (SONYA) !) Loved The Saphires Movie....Great reaction guys. Great choice 'Sonya'
One of my favourite movies, for which I bought the DVD and the Soundtrack.... and the moment that it clicked for you that she starred in the movie, that was gold. She is a Superstar talent. It is not her only movie, and by the way she has acted on a soap TV show called The Secret Daughter too. ❤
Yes, she can act. She was the star in the movie "The Sapphires". A true story about a female singing group who entertained the troops during the Vietnam War.
Jessica is an actor and singer and she's very talented (she is bound to be in a lot of Australian 2010+ musical content if you decide to go there at some point).
Jessica has been in some films and mini series since her success in Australian Idol and continues to produce music. Also a judge on Australia's The Voice for the past 2 seasons. We've kind of watched her grow up before our eyes. A talented young woman looking particularly cute in this clip. She's also a very nice person. Sings like a diva but certainly does not act like one.
G'day, I am enjoying your Aussie Diva discovery and Jessica Mauboy has a great collection of hits. Falling, Little Things and Galaxy (a duet with Stan Walker) are amazing. Love your reactions and you both make my day 🙏🏽 thanks again for brightening up my day ❤️
all those ladies are truly divas but you always forget one particular lady and I suppose its because she's an icon rather than a diva and that's Miss Kylie Minogue who may not have as good a voice(some would argue) but she is globally huge and runs rings around these ladies. Princess of pop.
