Brandee Evans is an accomplished actor, advocate, and businesswoman. She appears as a series regular on the Starz network show P-Valley, in the role of “Mercedes” – a performance critics describe as “wonderfully compelling,” and for which she was considered the breakout star of the first season.

P-Valley’s highly anticipated second season premiered in June, 2022 – breaking the network’s growth record with an increase of viewership of over 1,000%, representing the largest season-over-season gain in the history of Starz. The show was renewed for a third season, which begins production soon. Brandee received two NAACP Image Award nominations in the ‘Outstanding Actress in a Drama Series’ category for her work on seasons one and two of the show.

Brandee’s additional acting credits include the independent films Thirsty (2023), and B-Boy Blues (BET+, 2022), and television performances on Rolling Into Christmas (BET+, 2022), A Rich Christmas (BET, 2021), The Family Business (BET & BET+ 2020-2022), Games People Play (BET, 2019), Dear Santa I Need a Date (TVOne, 2019), Lethal Weapon (Fox, 2018), and The Bobby Brown Story (BET+, 2018).

“And then there is Mercedes (Brandee Evans). I can’t say enough about this character because I love her so much, and Evans is masterful in the role. Mercedes is everything: the best dancer at The Pynk, an athlete, a coach to young girls, a struggling entrepreneur, an emotionally abused daughter, a regretful estranged mother, that clutch friend you need when you’re in a jam, a fighter, the queen of snappy one-liners and someone who understands the value and limits of selling sex. She has an authenticity and a level of comfort with herself and her body that feels honest. She is a Black female character that we can all love and someone that we deserve.”   – Shani Saxon, ColorLines.com
