En Vogue Members list explored in wake of Dawn Robinson's bombshell revelation about her life

90s R&B girl group En Vogue singer Dawn Robinson took to her YouTube channel on March 12 to reveal that she has been living in her car for the past three years. The former singer revealed that she used to live with her family. However, her mother’s “anger” led to her having to move out. In the 20-minute-long video, she told followers that she was not asking people to feel sorry for her.

Dawn Robinson shared that she started to live with her parents in Las Vegas back in 2020. However, she eventually grew tired of her mother’s “anger” and ultimately decided to leave her home. Robinson explained in the video:

“That was wonderful until it wasn’t. I love my mom but she became very angry. A lot of anger, she was taking out on me. I was her target all the time and I was like, “I can’t deal with this.””

After sleeping in her car for a month, she then reportedly received a call from her manager, who advised her to move back to Los Angeles and live with him. However, she learned later on that there was no space for her in his home.

The manager also reportedly never liked any of the apartments she chose to live in while she was hunting for a place to stay. The 58-year-old said in the video:

“Every apartment that I looked at, every single time I looked at a place, I would call him and I’m like, ‘okay, can you meet me here?’ I would tell him ahead of time, of course. And then, he wouldn’t meet me there. So I would take video and send it to him and he’s like, ‘No, oh my god. This neighborhood, I hate it.””

En Vogue currently consists of their original members, Terry Ellis, Cindy Herron and Rhona Bennett, with Maxine Jones and Dawn Robinson leaving the group.
