Shimmering Star Spotlight: Corinne Joy

Each month YAYOMG! selects a Shimmering Star to spotlight. Follow along as we shine a light on girls who represent kindness, positivity, empowerment, philanthropy, drive, and confidence. They’re sure to inspire you!

Our Shimmering Star for November is actress, singer, and dancer Corinne Joy!

Corinne slays as a part of Run the World, where she gets to show off her singing talents and make music with her BFFs Hayley LeBlanc, Kheris Rogers, and Jessalyn Grace. They’re all about girl power, friendship, and empowering girls to dream big – a message that Corinne also makes it a point to share through her social channels. The girls recently released an amazing cover of Christina Aguilera’s song Beautiful, and Run the World’s first album drops later this month!

Corinne recently joined the cast of the popular Brat series, Chicken Girls, for the newest season. When she isn’t on set or recording new music, Corinne is all about skateboarding, dancing, gaming, and expressing her creativity through art and makeup.
