Before “Undercovers,” Mekia Cox appeared in a number of TV shows, such as “CSI: NY,” “Half & Half,” and “One Tree Hill.” In 2011, she also made an appearance in the romantic comedy-drama film “Crazy, Stupid, Love.”
Her participation in the This Is It concert series marked a significant career turning point for Cox. Out of more than 500 candidates, she was chosen as one of the 11 dance group members.
She displayed her talent and dedication by dancing alongside Michael Jackson during the practice of “The Way You Make Me Feel” in the Michael Jackson documentary “This Is It.”
Cox made cameos in six episodes of the second season and one episode of the third season of “90210,” respectively. She invented the character Sasha, who turned out to be the controversial love interest for Dixon Wilson (Tristan Wilds).
Despite being of different ages, they grew close because of shared experiences, such as having the same cell phone ringtone. In order to prevent Dixon from ending their relationship, Cox’s alter ego lies about being pregnant.
When Cox joined the This Is It dancers on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in October 2009 to fulfill the host’s birthday wish, she proved that her talents extended beyond acting.
In the short-lived NBC spy thriller “Undercovers,” Cox portrayed Lizzy Gilliam, the female lead’s sister, who was unaware of her family’s involvement in CIA activities.
