Kara Leona Bass[1] (born May 11, 1992)[1] is an American singer, model, and social media personality. She became known for appearing in the TLC reality television franchise, 90 Day Fiancé. In 2023, she began a music career, focusing mainly on the bachata genre.
Career
2022–2023: 90 Day Fiancé and music debut
Before her singing career, Kara became known for appearing in the TLC reality television series 90 Day Fiancé alongside her husband, Guillermo Rojer, during season 9 in April 2022.[2] The series follows couples who have applied for or received a K-1 visa, which allows foreign fiancées of U.S. citizens to enter the United States with the requirement to marry within 90 days. The series followed Kara and Guillermo, a Venezuelan, through their K-1 visa process.
In 2023, she began her music career with her debut song, "On My Own". The song belongs to the bachata genre, which is a Latin music genre, and is described by Kara as a kind of breakup song.[3] In the music video for the song, Kara appears with her husband, Guillermo Rojer, pretending to breakup.[4] That same year, she released her second song, "Magic Is Here".
2024–present: Subsequent songs
In 2024, Kara released the song "YDKM", which stands for "You Don't Know Me", and aims to send a clear message to online haters.[5] Kara said the song is meant to be "uplifting" to combat the hate she receives online from strangers on the Internet.[6] On August 16, 2024, Kara released her fourth single "Save Me".
Kara's foray into Latin music has profiled her as one of the most promising foreign voices in the genre, and with only two years in the music business, she has positioned herself as an emerging voice in bachata.[7] In 2025, she released the single "Lento" in collaboration with music producer DJ Husky,[7] which was followed by the single "El Reloj" in collaboration with Polish music artist DJ Cat, and the single "Buenos Aires" in collaboration with Italian DJ and producer Guido Londino. These songs were performed in Spanish.
In August 2025, Kara released the single "Criminal", again in collaboration with DJ Husky and Cuban music producer Dimelo Cupido. Kara revealed that the song is a kind of spicier type of energy, saying that the whole concept of the song is closely related to her personal life.[8] In the video clip for the song, Kara collaborated with a group of men from the 90 Day Fiancé franchise, who call themselves the "90 Day Bad Boys".[8]
Personal life
Kara began dating Venezuelan Guillermo Rojer after they met in the Dominican Republic in 2020. They were engaged within a few months and married on July 23, 2021, in Albemarle County, Virginia.[1] Their son was born on December 3, 2022.[9] In 2024, rumors broke out that the couple might have divorced.[10] In 2025, during season 9 of the 90 Day Fiancé spin-off series, 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?, the couple officially revealed their split. However, Kara and Guillermo had unfollowed each other on social media long before their separation was announced.[11]
