An accomplished dancer and choreographer, see how Mette Towley is taking on Hollywood and defying expectations along the way.
shaved Towley’s head in the opening scene of N.E.R.D and Rihanna’s 2017 hit video “Lemon,” Towley officially arrived. She was the standout star, delivering a viral performance that dripped with expression, strength, and swagger. She toured globally with N.E.R.D the following summer, and those signature moves earned her her own fan base, not to mention a Revlon contract, a string of high-profile choreography gigs, and a big dose of confidence. “I just finally believed in myself,” Towley says.
When she returned from tour, Towley sold most of her personal belongings, downsized her apartment, and started working out five days a week with a trainer—ropes, weighted ball slams, squats, boxing—convinced she’d need to be physically and mentally prepared for a big break. During one of these sessions, at MusclePharm fitness in Burbank, Mike Knobloch, the president of Global Film Music and Publishing at Universal Pictures, interrupted his own workout to approach her.
Her as-yet-unnamed EP, which she describes as music to move to with a tempo inspired by electronic/pop dance, will set Towley on a multidisciplinary path carved out by living legends such as her, which is slightly daunting for someone who still tussles with self-confidence. “The pressure to sustain a particular body image is very intense for dancers from my generation—and women in general,” Towley says.
