SAMANTHA MUMBA



BIOGRAPHY
Samantha Tamania Anne Cecilia Mumba (Born January 18, 1983) is an Irish singer and actress.
Her first album was released in 2000. Her most notable role was Mara in the 2002 film The Time Machine. She has also appeared in a number of Irish independent films. On 17 January 2008, Samantha appeared on UK daytime TV show Loose Women. After discussing her time away from the music scene, and her appearance on ITV reality TV show Dancing On Ice which ended abruptly after three weeks, the singer stated that she had almost finished recording her new album, and hoped it would be released in the summer of 2008.
As of October 2008, three brand new tracks have been posted on her MySpace and YouTube. "Candyland", "Turn The Beat Up" and "Bad Boy".
In a January 2009 interview, Samantha suggested that the new album would be released early in 2010.
There's been rumors that Samantha has worked with Timbaland. Clips of new songs "Personalities" (rumored to be produced by Timbaland) and "Angel" were added to her MySpace as well. Samantha has performed at promotion gigs to gain interest from record labels including performances of new songs such as Personalities.
Modeling
Shortly after the success of Gotta Tell You, Mumba was seen as the face of the fashion designer Louise Kennedy's spring/summer collection.
She also became a Dior ambassador when she launched the Dior Watch Collection in Ireland. Around the same time, Mumba also became the face of Reebok appearing in print advertising in the UK and Ireland for the Quest range.
In 2005, Mumba modeled for the Ultimo Per Amore range, available exclusively at the Irish main-street chain Dunnes Stores.
