Kariana Haynes

I’m the next dance icon because I have a life long passion for preforming & entertaining. As a former NFL cheerleader I light up every room.

Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

My dance style varies from hard hitting Hip Hop, Jazz, Country, Pom Routines and contemporary. My go to is hip hop, but I can master any choreography put in front of me. My inspiration is Ciara. I remember being a little girl and watching all of her music videos and learning each one. From GetUp, Like a Boy to OH, you couldn’t tell me I wasn’t already dancing back up.

How would being in Ciara's music video impact your life?

Ciara’s music video with impact my life because after transitioning from a high school dancer, to a studio dancer, and then to a NFL Cheerleader, now to nothing, most people would consider me to be washed up. But I know in my heart that as long as you have that fire, nobody can dim your light. Having an opportunity to be in this music video will give me the reassurance, confirmation and confidence that I need to say hey “You are and forever will be a dancer!”.

What would you do with the $20,000?

If I was the recipient of $20,000 I would use some of the money to open my own dance studio so that I can help foster a love for dance within my community and give children and adults a safe place to express themselves.
