Career

Her breakthrough in theater came that same year when she alternated as the title character in the Dutch-language musical Annie after auditioning via Op zoek naar Annie, performing at major venues like Antwerp’s Stadsschouwburg and Ghent’s Capitole.

These early experiences in live performance and TV built her confidence, leading to her film debut as Miranda in the family adventure Labyrinthus in 2014 and roles in series like Giraf, where she honed her skills in ensemble casts and connected with young audiences through relatable characters.

Thijs’s stardom ignited with the lead role of Caroline “Caro” Timmers in the teen drama #LikeMe from 2019 to 2021, a Ketnet series that spawned a popular band with chart-topping songs and sold-out concerts, including four shows at Antwerp’s Sportpaleis in 2022.

This platform launched her music career, starting with the 2020 duet “Nu wij niet meer praten” alongside Jaap Reesema, which hit number one in Flanders and the Netherlands, making her the youngest Belgian artist to achieve that milestone.

She followed with solo singles like “Ongewoon” in 2022, which won Hit of the Year at the MIAs, and “Erop of eronder” in 2023, earning Radio 2’s summer hit award; her debut album Per Ongeluk that year debuted at number one on Ultratop and went gold, while acting roles in De Familie Claus trilogy and High Tides as Louise in 2023 brought critical praise for her dramatic depth.

Pommelien Thijs served as a coach on The Voice Kids’ seventh season in 2023, guiding winner Sikudhani Wangui Mbugua and showcasing her mentorship alongside peers like Laura Tesoro.

Her music output continued with collaborations such as “Het Midden” with Meau and “Het beste moet nog komen” in 2024, plus the 2025 hit “Atlas,” breaking records for most weeks at number one on Ultratop 50.

Through directing music videos, designing sustainable outfits, and addressing themes like bisexuality in “Ongewoon” and environmental issues in “Zilver,” she has emerged as a multifaceted artist influencing Flemish pop culture with empowering narratives and innovative creativity.
