She is the Epitome of class,and Grace she exsudes positive energy

[@celiaferreira2028]

Shes light ✨️ beings way ahead of her time. Most don't understand her too much because her vibrations are so high.✨️✨️✨️

[@laroyah.muhammad6402]

I completely agree. This woman is magical!

23:15 Mya is so admirable. We all embrace celibacy, eventually, as we get older. Even in marriages and long-term partnerships. There are so many other dimensions to life in terms of impact and purpose. 23:15

[@VincentGordon-rn1do]

Ummmmmmm " CLASS =SADE". SHE HAS A LONG WAY TO GO TO GET ON SADE LEVEL!!!

[@GreatGownsBeautifulGowns2018]

Aging like fine wine. Love her.

[@Opinions-galore24]

Indeed

[@momi1610]

Mya has such a soothing speaking voice. Her life's perspective is also very refreshing. And she was definitely that girl back in the 90s. She had some of the best songs.

[@TheMsreid17]

I knew someone would focus on the voice. That's all I was thinking 😂😂😂

[@amariematthews4888]

I said the same

[@taishankm]

She is amazing. She spends time in nature and near the ocean. She talks about life balance and how she stays grounded. I love that. And hearing about her high-school days, I could relate. Her journey to spirituality is inspiring.

[@NurseNita444]

I just love Mya’s energy. Her entire aura seems so genuine and pure.

[@imaniwave4236]

It’s absolutely insane how Mya looks so angelic. Her beauty is internal and you can see that. Obviously external but like internally I strive to be as free as her.

[@locddeeplyrootedpeace5312]

Yes indeed In The Name of Jesus

[@dentreveal3820]

Plastic Surgery, no husband & no beautiful kids?

[@datswassup07]

She’s so stunning. She looks exactly like she did in the My Love is Like…..Wo video

[@aminah761]

Yesss❤

[@jamesapierceiii]

Mya killed it last night at Madison Square Garden. Reignited my high school crush on her. Best way to spend my birthday evening.

[@ci.b.d1691]

That's why her voice was gone in this interview??👀 She was Lit at MSG 🤣🤣 Now that's how you know it was a time💯💯

[@CrownedxKay]

Enjoy your Special Day!🥳🎉🎊 @jamesapierceiii

[@gregoryraynor7713]

She gonna be on her Phylicia Rashad when she ages more. Graceful and regal....classy AF.

[@herFLYness79]

Funny you say that. I was actually watching this and thinking how she reminds me of Debbie Allen (PR sister) and Jasmine Guy.

[@TeamDeen]

Mya seems to have a soothing, peaceful energy.

[@cmillo2010]

She does, I used to work at the airport and I met her…. gorgeous in person, speaking voice soft, beautiful aura…. She deserves to have the super stardom career Beyoncé has…. And many more other artist…. But she is smart, classy, about family,her image, she didn’t want to sell her soul for fame.

[@rollingwitced7479]

I can tell she’s a balanced Libra ♎️ ❤ with so much grace and class. She’s unstoppable.

[@ErikAndrew-q2p]

Yes, and she’s a Libra rising with Venus in Libra. The Libra planet! ♎️ She exudes all the positive traits of a Venusian Libra woman. Moon in ♊️ Gemini!

[@asweeney6988]

She's so unproblematic, it says a lot to be who she was/IS and never heard one scandal about her!

[@TechWizz]

They tried her though with the rumours!

[@Redboi-qh3oe]

All these years and Mya is still beautiful ❤❤❤

[@laroyah.muhammad6402]

Mya is simply the epitome of womanhood on so many levels. She’s spiritually grounded, wholesome, classy, talented and a pure beauty! God bless her eternally. 🤲🏼🙏🏽💫😇

[@amariematthews4888]

She is so soft spoken....her voice is soothing. She can has a voice for audio book ❤

[@keithmutamba1395]

Spiritually beautiful, emotionally beautiful, physically beautiful, mentally beautiful she has grown so much and her individuality and self worth shine through. The industry couldn’t break this woman. I’m a guy I think she is attractive on a glance but watching the interview reading about her industry she stood up for her self her life her values. Respect she deserves respect. The industry chews people up spits them out and moves on to the next. But she said no to all that. Still bumping case of the ex

[@911valentino]

A legend who doesn't get the credit she deserves in the music industry! Def grew up on her music, she still looks the same! 😍

[@TashaFierce111]

I wish Mya would have a Patreon or KZbin channel to share all her health tips. I just love her sm.

[@ambergant6058]

Mya is a class and so sweet! I met her years ago and she was very down to earth. Love her!!!

[@SmokeTherapy420]

Mya still look good

[@keithmutamba1395]

That’s what not having kids will do to you

[@lovelymelanin9336]

Yup she’s pure❤

[@yupisaidit-mx4is]

I remember my sister wrote a fan letter to Mya & she wrote my sister back. It was super cool. 🥰🥰

[@MalibuDollface]

She’s such a wonderful spirit, I also notice she was very comfortable here because she is usually really quiet but you could tell she felt safe here, great job ladies! ❤❤❤

[@carmellem6813]

She should do audio books her voice is so soothing

[@MrBlackretreat]

I love working with her at Nickelodeon and all the ups and downs. We went through on the set of Keenan and Kale Nickelodeon all that the promo shows the kid choice awards. I love you, Maya and so proud, and I’m glad you did not sell out.

[@Zoeymarley]

I had a childhood crush on mya 😭 she still look beautiful 😍

[@dyreckta23]

That crush is still there for me brother 😅

[@BTCBlizzy]

We all did 😂😂😂 she was the ONE back then mane.

[@lilrick456]

Mya is so regal n beautiful. I had a whole Mya marathon n ran across this interview.

[@chamrithomas1422]

You can hear the clarity in her voice it’s so peaceful and positive🤍

[@abundanceblessing]

I love me some Mya! She such a beautiful soul. I sat front row at the Tampa show & she was so engaging with the crowd & in my opinion along with my friends her performance was the best! Everyone was phenomenal but it was something about Mya!!!

[@rollingwitced7479]

I love Mya voice. We need to see more of her. She killed it in Virginia Beach queens of R&B Tour. Love it

[@AngelHoll-pr8fz]

[@syncl_rity]

This woman is timeless.

[@17dredre91]

I can listen to her talk alllllll day

[@KyleArias-m1p]

One thing you have to understand is that everybody is in tune with negative and positive energies and you might not understand how it works but when you do you know how to gracefully handle yourself in a situation where someone is coming to you with negative intentions and negative and low vibrations.

[@bigtippyTopp]

tribute to the resilience, fortitude, and wisdom of our seniors and acknowledge the immense value they impart to our families, communities, and society at large.

I’m 33 years old and I grew up on Mya. She’s such a class act and I will always love her. I agree with Angela though, there’s so much more to Mya we don’t know and we want to know more. I wanted Mya to touch more on the struggles she faces in the industry and even her love life. Also, we want to know who are some female dancers she likes today (Tinashe, Normani, etc.), who is her dream collaborator, etc.
