Samantha Mumba spoke with Mike Metz of the Contra Costa Times about her new film ‘The Time Machine’ as well as the origins of her musical influences. Mumba said, “I (idolize) Janet (Jackson) for the dancing, Whitney (Houston) for her vocal talents and Toni Braxton for her attitude. Put them all together.” As for whether her future will be in film or in music, Mumba said, “In (10 years) I don’t really know where I’ll be, going to go along with what happens.”
