As a young girl in Toronto, Canada, Denosh heard Whitney Houston sing and saw Janet Jackson dance and instantly knew that’s what she wanted to do for the rest of her life.

She enrolled at a performing arts high school – Earl Haig – but couldn’t wait to perform in the real world. A newly founded NBA team was the first stepping stone for her. Denosh became Dance Captain for the Toronto Raptors, and used her singing talents, not only to perform the national anthem at games, but in Toronto’s most notable music venues as a solo artist.

Breakthrough opportunities in Canada however, were hard to find at that time. So, on days off, she traveled back and forth to New York until she booked her first big gig – a world tour with Mariah Carey. Relocating to New York was needed as bookings kept coming in; music videos and tours with Missy Elliott, Aaliyah, Diddy, Jay-Z, Justin Timberlake.

Singing was still an unfulfilled wish for her, however. Faith Evans unexpectedly needed a stand-in for a singer on a promotional TV tour and gave Denosh the opportunity to move from background dancer to backing vocalist.

Knowing of her recording artist dreams, friend and fellow Canadian Laurieann Gibson asked Denosh to try out for MTV's Making The Band. Not making the band didn't stop her, and maybe for the best – Denosh reunited with Justin Timberlake as a singer on FutureSex/LoveShow in 2006. Tours with Drake, Rihanna, Alicia Keys, Demi Lovato, Robbie Williams, followed.

30 years in, some say her career is equally as versatile as it is impressive; only a handful of performers have sung and danced with so many different artists. Now married to a Dutchman, Denosh relocated overseas where she now services Europe from their new hometown Amsterdam.
