Aubrey O’Day is an American singer, songwriter, and reality television personality. She is the daughter of Kandy Allen and Rico O’Day.

She began performing at age five. “I lived on the stage, and even at six, slept behind the seats of the theatre,” she stated in an interview. According to her mother, when O’Day was four, she was at a performance of The Nutcracker and started to cry.

Her mother asked her what was wrong and O’Day replied, “I’m sad that I’m sitting here and not up on stage.” O’Day recalls that moment as the one in which she “officially” realized her love for entertainment.

Aubrey O’Day graduated from La Quinta High School. She later studied in political science and drama and graduated from the University of California, Irvine with a degree in political science and is a member of the Alpha Chi Omega sorority.

She is known for being a member of the girl group Danity Kane. She secured a solo record deal with SRC/Universal Motown Records in 2011, and her debut EP Between Two Evils was released in 2013.

O’Day has also been on reality television shows such as Celebrity Apprentice’s fifth season, Famously Single, Ex on the Beach, and British Celebrity Big Brother 18.
