Nachtburgemeester Amsterdam (Nightlife Ambassador)Isis was elected as the Nachtburgermeester of Amsterdam (Nightlife Ambassador) in 2010, and served as such for its 2-year term.

From 100% Isis to IsisIn August 2006 Isis decided to change her alias. When she started back in 1991, she got the name 100% Isis. After 15 years she decided to stop using it and she prefers to be called Isis ever since. What she had to say about it: {{quote|100% ISIS has been my nickname since I was sixteen years old, like Lange Frans & 50 Cent are aliases. I didn’t come up with it. The printshop which printed the very first flyer that featured me used the name 100% ISIS. And there was no stopping it ever since. I am now at a point in my career that it’s time to make my name known as more than just an artist, but also as a human being which went through major developments. I am now a grown woman and my name is Isis. }}DJ Mix CDsThe following albums were top 10 nationally ranked.
