The United States officially has Downton Fever, and even though Michelle Dockery (a.k.a. Lady Mary) didn’t win a Golden Globe, she stunned us all across the pond with her gorgeous poise and gown (Alexandre Vauthier.) She’s got a movie with Liam Neeson and Julianne Moore in the can (called ‘Non-Stop), and with Downton more popular than ever she’s set to be a big star.

It turns out that Michelle is also a jazz singer, and we’ve got some of her songs embedded below followed by some of her background info.

Michelle at the London Jazz Festival:

31-year-old Michelle’s dad Michael environmental analyst who used to be a lorry driver, and her mom Lorraine was a shorthand typist for years.

Last spring Michelle started dating British television star Joseph Millson, who stars in the British medical drama “Holby City.” They broke up in September 2012, and Joseph seemed a little bitter about the breakup, tweeting: “Stop wasting your time on the ones who don’t deserve you. Delete delete delete. Photos, emails, texts. Cleaning out.”
