Ardis Hemezida Fagerholm, known professionally as Ardis, and born on March 8, 1971, in Dominica, is a singer-songwriter. She moved to Sweden at age 13. Influenced by Motown and gospel music, she began writing songs and lyrics. In 1991, Ardis collaborated with American singer/arranger Jon Berger to record her first demo. Stockholm Records signed her in 1992, leading to the release of her debut album Love Addict in 1994. The album featured the hit single "Ain't Nobody's Business" and the breakthrough track "Shotgun", which was used as the theme for the Swedish film Vendetta. Love Addict went gold shortly after its release, earning Ardis a nomination for a Grammis Award in 1995. Her second album, Woman, was released in 1996 and included the single "Dirty". After this, Ardis withdrew from the public eye but made guest appearances on albums by the Real Group and Merit Hemmingson in 2000 and 2002 respectively.
