Courtney Michaela Ann "Coco" Jones (born January 4, 1998) is an American singer-songwriter and actress. Born in Columbia, South Carolina and raised in Lebanon, Tennessee, Jones began auditioning as a child to pursue a career in entertainment. She first appeared on the competition series Radio Disney's Next Big Thing (2010–11), which led to her signing with the company's Hollywood Records and being cast in several Disney Channel properties as recurring roles including the sketch comedy So Random! (2011–12) and the sitcom Good Luck Charlie (2012–13). She had her breakthrough role as Roxanne "Roxy" Andrews in the 2012 musical television film Let It Shine, where she co-starred with Tyler James Williams and lent her vocals to the soundtrack. She returned to a recording career in 2022, signing with High Standardz and Def Jam Recordings and releasing her single, "ICU", in October of that year.
