When Aoyama was three she was interested in dancing to Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation music video. She spent six years at Osaka International School as an elementary school student. When she was 10 she found singing fun, and discovered gospel. At 12 she moved to Los Angeles with her family, and when she was 14 in the winter of 2002 they returned back to Japan; this time moving to Tokyo where she attended the American School in Japan and received voice training. Currently as of 2008 she is studying at university.
Aoyama first release in the music world was a collaboration single with DS455 called SUMMER PARADISE ~Risin' To Tha Sun~, in June 2007, which broke the top 50 at #46. She debuted with her own solo single ONE WAY three months later, which scraped into the top 100 at #98. A few weeks later she was featured on the hit single by SoulJa called Koko ni Iru yo.

At early 2009 Thelma released her first compilation album that included love songs, LOVE! ~THELMA LOVE SONG COLLECTION~. It containes ballad songs (all A-sides from her 2008 singles). The album charted for 13 weeks with peak #1 position at Oricon Weekly charts and was certified Gold for shipment of 100,000 copies. In March 2009 she released her sixth single, Todoketai... feat.
