Former En Vogue Singer Dawn Robinson Reveals She’s Been Living in Her Car for Three Years

Nationwide Dawn Robinson, former En Vogue member, revealed in a YouTube video that she has been living in her car for the past three years. She shared her struggles before deciding to embrace the ‘car life’ lifestyle.

Robinson, 58, was living with her parents in Las Vegas in 2020 but later moved to Los Angeles on her former manager’s advice. She initially stayed in a hotel for eight months, but finding stable housing became difficult. Robinson claimed her manager discouraged her from securing an apartment, making her reliant on him.

Frustrated with her situation, she started researching ‘car life’ and decided to give it a try. She moved to Malibu and said it just felt like it was the right thing to do.

“I felt free. I felt like I was on a camping trip,” she said, according to People.

Throughout the video, Robinson made it clear she wasn’t looking for sympathy. “It’s not ‘woe is me.’ I’m learning about who I am, I’m learning myself as a person, as a woman.”

Despite the challenges, she expressed pride in her journey. “I’m proud of what I’ve accomplished out here,” she said, adding that she would have an apartment if she could but is glad she made the decision to live independently. She ended her video by encouraging others to take risks and face fears.

Robinson was a founding member of En Vogue, which was formed in 1989. She remained with the group until 1997, during which they earned six Grammy nominations. She later signed with Dr. Dre’s Aftermath label and rejoined En Vogue briefly in 2005 and 2009. She also pursued acting and appeared in the first season of R&B Divas: Los Angeles.
