Kaya Jones to sing at Sexpo

Jones has a solid background in the music industry. Mentored by R Kelly and named by The Sex Pistols' Steve Jones, she was instrumental in developing the sound and style of the Pussycat Dolls, which went on to become one of the most popular girl groups in history. Since leaving the group, Jones has brought her own brand of energetic pop, sassy charisma and sex appeal to her fans, with solo hit singles including Hollywood Doll and Take It Off. She has put out two solo albums, "Confessions of a Hollywood Doll" and "Kaya".

Esquire, Maxim and FHM

Not one to rest on her laurels, she has performed at several of the top clubs in Los Angeles and New York, sang back-up for Mick Jagger on the Golden Globe winning song Old Habits Die Hard, and has developed Hollywood Doll, a line of exclusive dolls, fashion and beauty products for young girls. She has toured Europe with top Belgian DJ Regi, promoting their Platinum Top 10 single Take It Off, toured China in 2011 with the Hennessey Artistry Tour; and has performed at elite music events such as VH1's Divas Live, VH1's Fashion Rocks and MTV's Rock the Vote. Her sultry beauty has put her on the cover of numerous magazines including Esquire, Maxim and FHM. But behind the pretty face is a sharp business mind - Jones is the youngest female in history to start her own record label: HueMan Race Records.

This former Pussycat Doll also has a softer side. Kaya is passionate about human rights and performed for US troops during a two-week tour of Iraq. She sang for, and met, the soldiers in the war-torn desert, citing it as an absolutely life-changing experience. She is also a proud supporter of the LGBT community and equality, and has performed at many Gay Pride events.

See her strut her stuff on the main stage on 26, 27, 28 September at 10pm. Sexpo is from the 26 to 29 September at the Expo Centre Nasrec and tickets are on sale at Computicket.
