The Meteoric Rise To Stardom
Bea Miller honed her skills as a story teller when she was a little kid. As a child, while playing with her toys, Bea would have them act out scenes she made up in her mind. When she finally focused on music, she realized that she can tell wonderful stories through her songs. Her talent was recognized early by one of her classmate's parents who introduced her to a prominent music director. Bea, who didn't think her voice was developed enough, had to turn down her first record deal offer. The first time she sang in front of a large crowd was after a Venus vs. Serena match at the 2008 U.S. Open, where she sang “America the Beautiful”. In the next few years, she appeared on television shows like ‘The Wonder Pets’, acted in films like ‘Tell-Tale’, and lent her voice to movies like ‘Toy Story 3’. In 2012, Bea successfully auditioned for ‘The X Factor’, where she was mentored by pop star Britney Spears. On April 22, 2014, she released her debut EP ‘Young Blood’ which was received with positive reviews.

What Makes Bea Miller So Special
Bea Miller's debut album ‘Not an Apology’ is probably one of the most appropriate album names in recent times. Bea, who often co-writes her songs, talks about issues like bullying, loneliness and separation in a very unapologetic tone. While growing up, she often felt that there was no female icon who fearlessly sung about common issues that teens like her faced every day. As a result, after gaining popularity as a singer, she decided to tackle harsh truths in her songs to uplift the spirits of people going through a difficult time. Her songs are often a balanced mix of darkness and light. According to her, instead of being ‘super-positive’, she wants to tell her fans that there will be dark times, but good things will also happen. Among her own songs, her favorite is the not-so-typical love song ‘Force of Nature’, closely followed by ‘Paper Doll’, a song that deals with the experience of being bullied.
Beyond Fame
Despite the fact that Bea Miller talks about the problems people face and tries to bring out positivity through her music, there was a time when she herself was quite pessimistic about her own life. However, she eventually realized that instead of shifting from bad to good, life incorporates both good and bad. She then decided to bring into her music this realization that life is a balance of ups and downs. She thinks that by conveying this message, she can make a huge number of teenagers feel that they are not alone, something she has always wanted as a teen during hard times.
In September, 2015, Bea Miller left her mother Hilery Kipnis to live with her other mother and sisters, following which Hilery changed her Twitter name to ‘childless mother’. This pulled Bea into a controversy regarding her relationship with her mother, to which she replied on Twitter claiming that Hilery used to emotionally abuse her for a long time.
Behind The Curtains
Bea Miller, a native of Maplewood, New Jersey, is the child of two mothers, Kim Miller and Hilery Kipnis. Her parents were a same-sex couple who were together for nearly two decades before separating in 2012. She has two adopted Vietnamese sisters, twins Esther and Georgia. Having family members that are part of the LGBT community, she is very passionate about LGBT issues. She thinks that growing up in a house with all female members has made her ‘less catty’, unlike many girls of her age. She was in a relationship with singer-songwriter Jacob Whitesides for about a year before breaking up in 2016.
