Presenting ------- Ms. Typh!
The name "Tiffany" has been a popular name, with connotations of elegance and class. "Tifinie" is used in Old French to mean "Epiphany." It derived from a similar Late Latin word which in turn came from the Greek "theophaneia," meaning an appearance or manifestation of God. A later French spelling is "tiphanie." As cited in the Oxford English Dictionary ... we must know it signifies Aparition or Manifestation from above."
Typhani was born on March 14 in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands. She moved to Texas when she was 4.
She has been performing since the time she was able to walk and talk. She is a self-proclaimed, drama queen with most of her performances having been at school and church. She has never been shy and because of her personality, people have encouraged her to begin an acting career. However, her mother chose not to force her into something for which she may not be ready.
She has been a member of the Childrens Ministry and AWANA clubs at her church in Dallas, Texas, under the leadership and direction of Ms. E. Cannings, Director, and Dr. Tony Evans, Senior Pastor.
In her spare time, she sings, reads, writes poetry, is on the B honor roll at school, keeps up with the latest fashion and styles, and loves to travel.
So far she has visited France, England, the Eastern Caribbean, the Bahamas, Washington, D.C., Nevada, Michigan, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, and Oklahoma. She also enjoyed cheerleading with the Duncanville Pantherettes who won first prize in the Duncanville Christmas Parade in 2003. She participated as a cheerleader for the TurnAround Athletic League for two years and most recently sang background vocals for The Gospel movie soundtrack with Kirk Franklin and appeared as a chorus angel in The Littlest Angel production at a local Arts & Theatre school.
Although not a big celebrity, yet, Typhani enjoys helping others with what she has, especially children who are less fortunate. She has participated in the Samaritans purse project at her school, and has given, from her allowance, to other charitable donations over the years. She also made sure to give what she could when Dallas was presented with victims from Hurricane Katrina.
Typhani has three brothers (two older and one younger). Her oldest brother, "ACE", is a singer, and has probably been the most influential in her aspirations to be an entertainer. Her second oldest brother, Kyendel, encourages her to be tough so, even though shes tiny, dont let that fool ya! Sometimes she considers herself a tomboy and is not afraid to take a stand for what she believes in. Her youngest brother, Xaivier, well he brings out her motherly tendencies... sometimes
Look out world, here comes the next Aaliyah, God rest her beautiful soul!
