She is also a successful singer; her album Baby Woman sold over 1 million copies worldwide (mostly in Japan), and she was featured on Vanilla Ice's single "Cool as Ice." She had previously appeared in George Michael's music video, Freedom '90, though she merely lip-synched to his song along with other models rather than performing herself. In 1995, her collaboration with Toshinobu Kubota, LA LA LA LOVE SONG, became a hit in Japan, with the single selling more than two million copies. She has also appeared in music videos for artists such as Michael Jackson and Jay-Z. In late 2004 she had a high profile relationship with Usher although as of 2005 their relationship appears to be over.
