Singer: dark skin tone Emoji

People

A dark-skinned person wearing a star-shaped prop over one eye and holding a microphone, capturing the classic look of a stage performer. This emoji represents vocalists, musicians, and anyone taking the spotlight.

Usage Context

Used to discuss concerts, karaoke nights, or to highlight someone showing off their talents. It is frequently sent alongside music-related icons like 🎤 or 🎸 to show enthusiasm for a live performance or a favorite artist.

History

The base singer emoji was added to the Unicode standard in 2016 as part of the expansion of gender-neutral professions. The skin tone modifiers were integrated later via the Unicode Emoji Diversity mechanism, allowing users to better represent real-world performers across all backgrounds.
