Where are the En Vogue members now? All we know amid Dawn Robinson's homeless revelation

Former En Vogue member, Dawn Robinson, has revealed that she was been living in her car for the past three years due to homelessness.

Dawn Robinson was one of the four original members of the hit R&B group, En Vogue. She along with Cindy Heron, Maxine Jones, and Terry Ellis, was part of the seven-time Grammy-nominated group.

The group has achieved immense success, but it has been marred by legal battles between members and their management. The news of Robinson's homelessness has prompted fans to wonder what the other members of the group are up to.

Apart from her career with En Vogue, Cindy Heron has acted in several movies and TV shows like Full House, Love Hadn't Left Me Lonely, and On Our Own, among many others. She was married to baseball player, Glenn Braggs, but divorced in 2023, after thirty years of marriage. The couple shares four children. She continues to remain a member of the chart-topping group, with another original member, Terry Ellis.

Maxine Jones was a member of En Vogue from 1981 to 2012. Jones has received several nominations throughout her career. Apart from her career with En Vogue, she has released several singles like "Didn't I", and "Not Your Freak." and released her first studio album, Maximizing, in 2023. According to her website, in 2022, she received the Ally for Equality Award and is actively involved with several charities.

After her exit from En Vogue in 1995, Terry Ellis released her solo album, but it didn't achieve the great level of success that she saw with the band. She rejoined the group in 1996 and continues to perform with original member Cindy Heron and new member Rhonda Bennett. Ellis is dedicated to the cause of ending gender violence, and is a board member of The Sister Accord Foundation, a charity that works towards this cause.

All we know about Dawn Robinson's homelessness

Dawn Robinson uploaded a video to her YouTube channel, OfficialDawnRobinson, on 11 March, where she explained her current living conditions.

She starts by saying:

"My aim is to inspire, no matter what the odds are against you, you are capable of anything. You are capable of everything. Whatever you think you cannot do you can do that thing."

She continued:

"Guys, for the past three, almost three years, I have been living in my car. [feeling visibly relieved] I said it, oh my gosh, it’s out.”

The Hold On singer added that she had been living with her parents in Las Vegas, but had to leave after conflicts with her mother.

"In the interim, I was living with my parents in Vegas and that was wonderful, untill it wasn't. I love my mom, but she became very angry, and lot of her anger she was taking out on me, I was her target all the time, and I was like I can't deal with this. I respect her too much...and I was like let me get out."

Robinson further says in her video that her then co-manager called her back to LA, promising to provide accommodation at his home, but those promises were not kept:

"So I was sleeping in my car, for maybe about a month in Vegas. The that was co-managing at that time said 'you need to come back to LA'..I love LA so I said yes. He said I could stay with him [untill she gets her own place] .... but then when I got to his place, he did not have room for me."

She went on to explain that the unnamed manager put her in a hotel for one night, but that one night turned into eight months:

"I felt like he was playing games, I knew he was playing games...Sometimes people want to trap you and keep you in a situation where you’re vulnerable and depending on them. So I got out of there.”

Robinson then shared how the idea of living in her car came to her mind:

"I said to my assistant 'I have been researching car life'. There is this whole community of people living in their cars, whole community of people that live in their RVs, and a whole community of people that live in vans. I loved what I was seeing, And I could do that. I can do this, I think. And I ended up in my car, and like I said it's been three years."

The Grammy-nominated singer added that she is documenting the whole thing to inspire others and as a way to remind herself of the journey she has been through:

"This is not like, 'Oh my God, poor Dawn. She's living in her car. It's terrible, Oh, woe is me. I'm learning about who I am. I'm learning myself as a person, as a woman." said Robinson in around 18-minute video.

At the end of the video, she said:

“I’m proud of what I’ve accomplished out here. Be spontaneous. Do the scary.”

Robinson, who has uploaded eighteen videos to her YouTube channel, and gained over 5000 subscribers, shared that she is looking forward to the next chapter of her life.
