Camilla Henemark, also known as La Camilla, (born October 23, 1964) is Swedish singer, actress, and former fashion model.

Henemark was born in Stockholm, to a white Swedish mother and a black Nigerian father. She started her modeling career when she was a teen and later had her own modeling agency. She started her career in music by joining Alexander Bard in his Barbie project as "Katanga". That project morphed into the group Army of Lovers, and soon La Camilla (as she is best known) became the face of the group. After a couple of albums (and at least one public fight) with the group, she left and began a solo career. She released several singles that failed to achieve commercial success, and recorded at least one album that was never released (called 'Temper'). She then rejoined Army of Lovers and has worked with them on all their most recent recordings.

Besides music, she has also had an active career in tv & movies, and is an active supporter of the Swedish Social Democratic Party. She is currently single but was married to Anders Skog, and had a long term relationship with popstar/director Stakka Bo (Johan Renck). She likes hockey and football (soccer), and has liberal views on sex and drugs.
