Grammy-nominated R&B singer Dawn Robinson revealed in a recent video blog that she’s been living in her car for the past three years. The news comes as a shock to many, but Robinson is adamant that she has no shame about it.
Robinson said she first took refuge in her car in 2020 after living with her parents in Las Vegas due to a tumultuous relationship with her mother. She was later persuaded to move to Los Angeles by her former co-manager, who rented her a hotel room for eight months. However, after the manager allegedly refused to help her find an apartment, Robinson returned to her car.
Despite the difficulties of living on the road, Robinson claims she feels “free” and has learned to appreciate her “off-grid” lifestyle. She’s been documenting her experience on film and plans to use the footage to make a documentary about her journey.
Robinson, who left En Vogue in 2011, is determined not to let her past experiences define her future. When asked if she would have believed she’d be living in her car one day, Robinson said, “We say that we can’t do certain things before we even know we’re capable.” She’s eager to succeed again and prove to herself that she can overcome any obstacle.
