You surely know Scarlett Baya, this dancer who has incredible charisma and a journey that makes you want to believe, right? Well, she was born in 1989, so at 35 years old, she has already made great strides in dance and on stage. And she is about 1.68 m tall, which, believe me, gives her an amazing presence when she moves.
What has always struck me about her is her transition between dance and singing – a real challenge for someone so used to expressing herself through movement. Recently, she even tried her luck on The Voice, which, frankly, is surprising when you mainly know her as a visual performer.
Before doing shows and collaborating with stars like Amel Bent, Scarlett had her share of struggles and hard work, rowing in the shadows before touching a bit of light. Nothing was handed to her, her journey is super inspiring, it breathes pure passion and determination.
And then on the love side, we can’t forget she was with Matt Pokora, which added a bit of media spice to her life. But Scarlett keeps a cool head, focused on her artistic projects and on making the audience vibrate, outside of any controversy.
Who is Scarlett Baya and where does she come from?
So, Scarlett Baya is above all a woman who made a name for herself in the world of dance, notably through her collaborations with very famous artists. She was born in 1989 (yes, you read that right, she is already 35!) and is about 1.68 m tall, which might seem trivial but you’ll see, it plays a role in her stage presence.
Before everyone knew her, Scarlett worked hard, trained her technique in various dance styles, performed in musicals like Robin Hood. Just that alone shows she touched quite a few things before finally gaining real recognition.
She is also a familiar figure to the general public because she has often been on screen, notably in popular shows, and she never lost her authenticity in the process. A true mix of professional rigor and deep simplicity.
Ah, I forgot one detail, she is not just a solo artist, she has often been surrounded and supported, like with Charles at Star Academy in 2024. A real favorite for those who followed that show, where she brought much more than her dance moves.
Scarlett Baya’s journey and career: dance and success
Let’s talk a bit about work, because here, Scarlett may have come a long way, but it was far from guaranteed. She started in professional dance, accompanying big names like Amel Bent or M. Pokora on stage. Yes, right there on the front line with them!
She also acted in the musical Robin Hood from 2013 to 2014, a real springboard that thrilled crowds and confirmed her talent. What I admire is how much she devoted herself so her work would speak, always on the edge of feeling.
But dance alone was no longer enough, so she launched into the singing adventure in 2025 with The Voice. Can you imagine the stress? Singing and dancing at the same time, what she calls her “ultimate dream.” She shone on stage, even though no coach pressed their buzzer (sniff), she earned applause and respect, especially from Florent Pagny.
What really touched me was her emotion at the end of her performance, to tears. Honestly, it shows that beyond being a pro, she remains human, vulnerable, and that makes her journey even more endearing.
Scarlett Baya’s private life: love, family, and confidences
On the love side, Scarlett Baya made a lot of talk, notably because she was in a relationship with Matt Pokora, a pillar of French pop, for several years. The couple left a mark, and even long after, the public remains intrigued by that story.
But Scarlett is not defined by that relationship, far from it. She chose to remain discreet, preferring her work to speak rather than her private stories. What I admire is this ability to put the past behind and move forward, again and again.
In February 2025, she also made a remarkable return on The Voice, proving she wants to keep reinventing herself and surprising. Despite criticism or pressure, she keeps her course, more determined than ever.
This genuine sharing and quiet strength is probably what makes the public love her so much, even after all these years by her side.
Surprising anecdotes about Scarlett Baya
Did you know that Scarlett cried at the end of one of her performances at Star Academy? It was in December 2024, a super intense moment when she accompanied Charles on Le temps des cathédrales. That duo left a strong impression, and Charles himself confided that it was thanks to her that he succeeded. Yes, just that.
She has often been the one who brings strength at weak moments, supporting her colleagues with touching professionalism. But when it’s her own turn, she lets go, and that makes her even more real in the eyes of the public.
Another thing I liked: in 2025, despite her huge experience in dance, she tried her luck on The Voice as a singer, a bit crazy, this Scarlett, right? But it’s that kind of boldness that makes her captivating.
Finally, don’t forget, she is also very active on her official Facebook page, where fans and curious people share their admiration and follow her latest news.
Recent projects and news about Scarlett Baya in 2025
At the start of 2025, Scarlett continues to surprise. After her notable appearance on The Voice, she seems ready to turn the page on her first singing attempts to focus on other artistic challenges.
She regularly shares her daily life, rehearsals, and behind the scenes on her official fan club, and continues collaborating with artists like Amel Bent, while exploring the theatrical scene, notably having enrolled in the Cours Florent to train in theater and cinema.
More than just a dancer, Scarlett has become a complete artist who seeks to master all the stage tools. And with her determination, we can bet we will see her again very soon, full of surprises.
