Born in London in 1997, Mae Muller is a pop star and represented the UK at this year’s Eurovision. In 2017, she uploaded some tracks to SoundCloud, leading to industry interest, three EPs, a Little Mix tour support slot, more than 2bn streams, and a Top 10 single in the US with Better Days alongside Neiked and Polo G. Her Eurovision entry, I Wrote a Song, finished in 25th place, but peaked at No 9 in the UK Top 40 and became a hit across Europe. Her debut album, Sorry I’m Late, is out on 29 September.
This photograph is me aged 10, at my aunt’s flat in north London. I’d just had my first adult haircut. It used to be a bowl cut, so when I went for layers it was a huge moment. I felt like such a woman!
