 NEW YORK (Platinum Celebrities Website) - R&B star Mya stressed the importance of early detection in the fight against breast cancer in a recent interview with platinum-celebs.com, citing her own mother's battle with the disease in 1998. "Thankfully she's okay now," Mya said. "I know because my mom had it, I'm at risk myself. I want to teach young girls what to do." The singer stressed that girls should be aware of the risks even at a young age. "I have a friend who detected breast cancer at the age of 19. She's okay now, but it has hurt so many young women."
