Five things to know about Pia Mia

#YVAs2016

By now everyone who’s anyone has started their preparation for the YVAs, whether it’s shopping for the perfect outfit or seeking out tickets. This year’s staging of the show features international guest artiste Pia Mia and like the thoughtful bunch we are, we thought we’d help you get to know everything there is to know about her.

1. Her name really is Pia Mia. Her full name is Pia Mia Perez.

2. She got her start on YouTube. Like a few other stars (think: Tori Kelly, Justin Bieber and The Weeknd) she’d begun posting song covers and videos of herself on the popular site.

3. She’s an island girl. Pia Mia is from Guam.

4. Pia can make a great Kylie Jenner doppelgänger and somewhat ironically had Kylie’s rapper boyfriend Tyga on her hit

Do It Again. She also has her own emojis like Kylie’s older sister Kim Kardashian West.

5. Even though Pia Mia’s only been signed to a record label around this time in 2014, she’s amassed thousands of followers on Twitter, millions on Instagram and already has a string of successful hits.

And, girl can sing! Be there on Saturday to catch Pia Mia’s performance.
