Mýa has opened up on Melyssa Ford‘s Podcast about staying unmarried, kids-free, and celibate.
Singer Mýa has officially entered the chat with the most peaceful life update ever. While the rest of the world is out here panic-planning weddings and Googling “best baby formula,” she calmly said: No. I’m good. She opened up about her decision not to get married, not to have kids, and, yes, to stay celibate.
When Ford asked the “Lady Marmalade” singer about her love life, the ageless beauty, 45, explained that she’s never been drawn to the traditional way of living.
“It’s not even my focus and it never has been,” Mya explained. “My mother’s an independent thinker. I’ve witnessed a divorce between my parents. I’ve witnessed all kinds of things.”
She continued, “I’ve witnessed a lot of things. And it’s also not been a safe place in my mind as a little girl. So I’ve always thought a little different. The white wedding dress, I was always fearful of a little stain. So I looked elsewhere and probably escaped too much in my work.”
It’s a tough decision but I guess Mýa knows what’s best for her.
“I’m not worried about it because my life is full of love and it comes in so many different forms, not just one person,” she said. “So I’ve had to recalibrate my brain and not govern my life off of this fantasy or illusion that we have all been indoctrinated by or taught by.”
Let’s be honest, most people can’t even stay off their phones for 24 hours. Meanwhile, Mýa is out here pressing pause on marriage, motherhood, and even romance. Queen of boundaries.
So if you ever wondered what self-care looks like in human form, it’s Mýa laying in a robe, sipping tea, ignoring texts, and aging like she discovered time’s weaknesses.
