Deja Vu are a British-Venezuelan girl group consisting of members Elle Botterill, Carolina Diaz and Tyrece Lewis. After forming in 2020, they competed on the series twelve of The Voice UK in 2023, where they reached the semi-finals. Since competing on the series, Deja Vu have gained a following on social media apps Instagram and TikTok, and have gone onto release the singles "Hot" and "Hell Yeah".
Deja Vu formed in 2020 with four members.[ citation needed ] They came together during the COVID-19 pandemic, so had little experience performing in public. Together, Deja Vu spent a week on a caravan park to form the sound they wanted for their group. [2] They made their debut performance in 2023 when auditioning for series twelve of The Voice UK ; their performance opened the series. [3] They performed the song "Unholy" by Sam Smith and Kim Petras, where all four judges turned their chairs for the group. [4] Deja Vu selected Anne-Marie to be their mentor for the series. In the callback stage of the series, the group performed the Britney Spears song "Lucky", where they progressed to the semi-finals. [5] For the semi-finals, they performed "Beautiful Liar" by Beyoncé and Shakira, after which they were eliminated. [6]
After competing in The Voice UK, they released their debut single, "Get Down". After the departure of member Sophie Nascimento, the song was removed from streaming services. [7] [ failed verification ] After having gained a following on social media platforms Instagram and TikTok, they began writing more music. Speaking about the process, they stated that since Venezuelan member Carolina Diaz had always written songs in Spanish, it "just made sense" to incorporate Spanish verses into their music. Deja Vu then released the song "Hot", [2] followed by "Hell Yeah". Both songs topped the Future Hits Radio charts. [8] They released their third single, "Baddie", in August 2025. [9]
