Carly Rae Jepsen is a Canadian singer and songwriter who catapulted to international fame with her infectious hit "Call Me Maybe" in 2012. Born on November 21, 1985, in Mission, British Columbia, Jepsen initially captured audiences' attention when she finished third on the fifth season of "Canadian Idol" in 2007. Her bubbly pop sensibilities, tinged with a hint of indie charm, have carved her a unique niche in the music industry.

After the whirlwind success of her breakout single, which snagged the Song of the Year nomination at the 55th Annual Grammy Awards, Jepsen's career didn't slow down. She continued to craft pop anthems with depth and personality that resonated with a devoted fan base. Her third album, "Emotion" (2015), was critically lauded as a pop masterpiece, leading to an equally acclaimed companion release, "Emotion: Side B." In recent years, Jepsen has continued to evolve her sound with projects such as "Dedicated" (2019) and its follow-up "Dedicated Side B" (2020). Her recent string of singles, including the wistful "Western Wind" and the dance-inducing "Beach House," further showcases her ability to capture the complexities of relationships through catchy hooks and heartfelt lyrics. Jepsen's artistry extends beyond studio records; her live performances, such as "The Sound (Live In Lapland, Finland)," offer fans intimate renditions of her work. As she continues to release new music like "The Loneliest Time" and intriguing remixes, her evolution as a pop icon is unmistakable, ensuring her staying power in the ever-changing landscape of popular music.
