Sisqó

Sisqó lives with his girlfriend, Elizabeth Pham, in Maple Grove, Minnesota, a suburb of Minneapolis. They have two children: a son and a daughter. He has another daughter, Shaione, born in 1995, from a previous relationship.

He appeared in the reality show ‘Celebrity Wife Swap’ with Elizabeth.

Mark Andrews “Sisqó” was born in Baltimore, Maryland, US, on November 9, 1978. His father, Alonzo Andrews, an electrician at the ‘PSINet Stadium,’ was always critical of Mark and his music career but eventually became his biggest fan after his success. He owes a lot to his parents, especially to his mother Carolyn Andrews, a social security worker, who convinced him to follow his heart. He has a sister, Donisha Andrews, who is also his assistant.

According to his grandmother, he began singing when he was about 2 years old and at the age of 7, he became the youngest member of the ‘Young Adult Choir’ at the church.

In high school, he, along with his mates Woody, Nokio, and Jazz, worked at ‘The Fudgery.’

They sang the gospels during their initial years and founded ‘Dru Hill’ in 1992.

He was a resident of Reservoir Hill, at 908 Newington Avenue, near Druid Hill Park, the place the band derived its name from.

Sisqó’s rip-roaring career began when he, along with three of his mates, formed ‘Dru Hill.’ The group recorded hit songs, such as ‘How Deep Is Your Love’ and ‘These Are the Times,’ in the late 1990s.

Woody quit the group in 1999 to pursue a solo career. This prompted the other members to go their separate ways, too.

His solo album, ‘Unleash the Dragon,’ was released in 1999 through ‘Def Soul Records.’ The album included the risqué hit single ‘Thong Song’ and ‘Incomplete.’ ‘Thong Song’ became an international hit because of its provocative and scandalous content. The songs were major hits on the ‘Billboard Hot 100’ chart.

He became a household name by the end of 2000. His flamboyant, flashy appearance and colorful hairstyles became his visual trademark.

His success inspired ‘Play Along Toys’ to manufacture a ‘Sisqó’ celebrity doll in 2001. The same year, the song ‘How It’s Gonna Be’ was selected to be part of the movie ‘Rush Hour 2.’ It was a song by the girl group created by Sisqó, ‘LovHer.’ Around this time, he also hosted the dance competition ‘Sisqó’s Shakedown’ on ‘MTV’ and acted in movies such as ‘Get Over It’ (2001) and ‘Snow Dogs’ (2002). He also appeared as a vampire in ‘The Teenage Witch’ (Season 6) and signed a five-movie deal with ‘Miramax’ and a development deal with ‘NBC.’

His work with ‘Dru Hill’ created hit songs such as ‘How Deep Is Your Love' and 'These Are the Times.'

His first solo debut, ‘Unleash the Dragon’ (1999), offered runaway hits such as ‘Thong Song’ and ‘Incomplete.’

His second solo album, ‘Return of Dragon’ (2001), and his third solo album, ‘Last Dragon’ (2015), were praised, too.
