Biography

Troye Sivan Mellet ( TROY sih-VAHN; born 5 June 1995) is an Australian singer-songwriter and actor. After gaining popularity as a singer on YouTube and in Australian talent competitions, Sivan signed with EMI Australia in 2013. He earned early recognition for his extended plays (EPs) TRXYE (2014) and Wild (2015); the former peaked at number 5 on the US Billboard 200, while his debut single, "Happy Little Pill", reached the Top 10 on Australian music charts. As of 2024, Sivan has sold 10 million albums worldwide.

In 2015, Sivan released his first full-length album, Blue Neighbourhood, featuring the multi-platinum single "Youth", which became his first Top 40 hit on the US Billboard Hot 100. His second studio album, Bloom (2018), charted near the top in Australia and the US, while its lead single, "My My My!", became Sivan's second number-one single on the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart. His third studio album, Something to Give Each Other (2023), topped the ARIA Albums chart. It produced the singles "Rush" and "Got Me Started", which earned him three Grammy Award nominations. His fourth album, She's the Best (2026), was led by its title track.

As an actor, Sivan portrayed the younger Wolverine in X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009) and starred as the title character in the Spud film trilogy (2010–2014). In 2017, he became the youngest recipient of the GLAAD Stephen F. Kolzak Award. In 2018, he received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Original Song for "Revelation", from the film Boy Erased, in which he also had a supporting acting role.
