SHAYNA D (Radio Princess)

About Me

Today’s gold rush of multi-media will stream in a wave of fresh pundits and personalities to document the cybernetic times ahead. Of those new voices, one in particular will help sew the landscapes between modern news and entertainment. Current Sirius XM radio host and burgeoning television reporter, Shayna D, will own said voice.The New York City resident, by way of the San Francisco Bay Area, first fell in professional love as a Corporate Communications major at Baruch College. It was there where Shayna flourished as an On-Air personality and eventual Music Director for her Alma Mater’s very own WBMB Radio. It was also where Shayna learned that her handle on multi-media was ambidextrous. Shayna’s warm tone, thorough reporting and constant finger on the pulse of world news and pop culture, revealed she was a winner for radio and TV stations alike. “I have a genuine curiosity about people and their story––what motivates them, inspires them, sustains their drive,” says Shayna D. “That’s what intrigued me about the interviewing process. Like any love of yours, it was a natural attraction as well as a natural progression from traditional radio hosting.”Since acquiring her very own show on WBMB (The Grind), Shayna has joined the Sirius XM radio ranks as a co-host and personality for Shade 45’s VIP Saturdays. Having interviewed an array of figures from reality TV (Ray J), rap (Lil’ Kim) to even her own media field (Sway Calloway), it’s no wonder that Shayna D has supplied Sirius XM’s premier Saturday night show with an awareness many hip-hop programs lack.The bright future of Shayna D illuminates inevitable producer and correspondent titles for any of your favorite entertainment or news networks. The sky’s the limit and if Ms. D has it her way, she’ll be carrying on the legacy of the legends of her field––channeling the fluidity of a Barbara Walters when interviewing her listener’s favorite subjects or catering to the demands of a niche market like masters such as Wendy Williams. The primacy for your next favorite media personality, Shayna D, is balancing the precision of television broadcast and the intimacy of the airwaves, all while leaving her listeners better than they were before they first tuned in. “It's really important to me to use the platform that I have to educate people while I’m entertaining them. Breaking new records that my listeners are dying to hear, is as important to me as providing them with information, resources and dialogue on serious issues, whether political or social.”Catch Shayna every Saturday Live on SIRIUS XM Radio's "VIP Saturdays" along with DJ Self aka "The Prince of NY" (Shade 45/XM Raw 66 Saturdays 10p-1a EST)..ME, ME, ME!!ON THE JOB!!
