We had the good fortune of connecting with Tiffany Tynes-Gonzales and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Tiffany, why did you decide to pursue a creative path?
I have always been a creative person since I was a child. I knew I wanted a career in performing when I was 9 years old watching the show “Soul Train”. Every Saturday morning, I would find a dress in my mom’s closet and get dressed as if I were going to be on the show. I would dance for the whole run of the show which was 1 hour.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I went from a girl from Memphis with a dream to an overnight social media sensation. That is how I got to where I am today professionally. A fellow YouTuber and friend of mine, Bart Baker, asked me to portray Nicki Minaj in his “Anaconda” music video Parody and I accepted the offer. Once the parody was released, I was trending everywhere on social media. From there, I began making my own content as well as took the leap into other avenues that I have always loved such as fitness, fashion and beauty professionally.

Now, I currently own 3 businesses. I have a production company (That’s Nice Media), an online boutique, Xo, Tiffany™, and my fitness brand Fierce Fit Club By Tiffany™, of which my fitness series is now streaming on Amazon Prime Video!

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Well, since I am Las Vegas based, everybody loves Las Vegas but I am sure most never see beyond the Las Vegas strip and let me tell me you, Las Vegas is a really beautiful place if you expand your horizons. Of course I would take them to my favorite places on the strip first, which is Caesar’s Palace for shopping and lunch or dinner at Gordon Ramsay’s Hell’s Kitchen. I’d also take them to see Red Rock Canyon which is absolutely beautiful and hang in out beautiful Summerlin, Las Vegas.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I want to dedicate this shout out to my husband Alex and my sister Brittany. My husband Alex is my rock and is always my biggest supporter in everything I do. My sister Brittany is always there to remind me of the GirlBoss that I am, especially on those days when I may not feel it. Without these 2 amazing people in my life, staying focused on my goals and dreams would be an extremely tough challenge. They both deserve it all!
