Anna Mae Kelly[2] (born 24 March 2003),[3] known professionally as Mae Stephens, is an English pop singer. She peaked at number 13 on the UK Singles Chart in 2023 with her single "If We Ever Broke Up",[4] which initially gained popularity after being teased on Mae Stephens' TikTok account.[1][5][6]

Mae Stephens is from Kettering, Northamptonshire.[7] She regards Freddie Mercury and Sigrid among her musical influences.[1]

Career

[edit]

As Anna Mae Kelly, she self-released two songs called "I Want You to Be Here" and "Devil Eyes" in March and April 2020 respectively.[8] These were followed by two more self-released songs as Mae Stephens entitled "Infamous Kiss" (September 2020) and "White Lies" (March 2021).[4] In 2021, Stephens was interviewed by the BBC about performing during the COVID-19 pandemic.[9]

In December 2022, Stephens released snippets of her song "If We Ever Broke Up" to TikTok.[10][11] The clips went viral during January 2023. Shortly afterward Stephens was signed to EMI and "If We Ever Broke Up" was released as a full single in February 2023.[12][13][14]
