Agnes Monica Muljoto (born 1 July 1986), known professionally as Agnez Mo (stylized in all caps), is an Indonesian singer and actress. Born and raised in Jakarta, she is known as a bilingual singer who records in both Indonesian and English.

Prior to recording three children's albums and presenting several children's television programs, Mo began as a worship singer at a church in Jakarta. She released her first teen album And the Story Goes in 2003, which catapulted her name in the Indonesian music industry. Her success in Indonesia encouraged her to target the international music scene. She has since collaborated with numerous American musicians, such as Timbaland, Michael Bolton, Keith Martin, T.I., Chris Brown, French Montana, Johnny Sins, Steve Aoki, and Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins.

Mo is an anti-drug ambassador in Asia and the ambassador of MTV EXIT in combating human trafficking. Mo has also claimed the title of entrepreneur, showcasing her own fashion line ANYE, APP, Digital Marketplace, and partnering with cell phone manufacturer Vivo to create her own limited-edition line of devices. In 2022, Mo was immortalized through a wax statue at Madame Tussauds Singapore museum, and thus became the first Indonesian celebrity to have a wax statue made there.[1] In 2023, she represented Indonesia at the Grammy's Global Spin,[2] and became the first Indonesian musician to perform solo at the event.

Mo is the most awarded Indonesian artist with over 190 awards, including 18 Anugerah Musik Indonesia, 8 Panasonic Awards, 5 Nickelodeon Indonesia Kids' Choice Awards, 4 MTV Indonesia Awards, 2 Mnet Asian Music Awards, 1 World Music Awards, and 1 iHeartRadio Music Awards.
