She is the daughter of Muchlis Rusli and Emmy Sjarif, Minangkabau descendants from Galuang, Nagari Sungai Pua, West Sumatra. Her father worked at Bank Indonesia, while her mother was a dentist.

BCL began her career in the entertainment industry as a model and soap opera actress. She later ventured into singing and released several successful albums. Additionally, BCL starred in various acclaimed feature films.

In 2025, BCL married Tiko Aryawardhana. Recently, a video featuring a conversation between BCL and her husband about instant noodle-eating habits caught public attention. In the video, BCL appeared surprised to learn that her husband had never eaten instant noodles with rice, which she found unusual.
