Taiya Thompson

People's Choice Award

1.What is the funniest thing you remember as a child?
I have three siblings that keep me laughing constantly. My brother loves to impersonate people dancing, and he is so good at it! My littlest sister can hold a conversation like she is 10, she’s 3... and my other sister and I are just goofy together.

2.What is the one piece of clothing you wish you owned?
I really enjoy driving. When I'm feeling too overwhelmed, I will go hop in my car, turn my music up loud and drive. I don’t even have to have a destination, I will just go wherever the wheels take me.

3.What season of the year is your favorite and why?
I love stunting! You get crazy muscle definition and the adrenaline that runs through your body when you hit a perfect stunt just feels awesome, and the crowd loves it!

4.What is your favorite movie?
I have a closet full of super cute clothes, but living in Alaska where it gets down to -50 degrees, I always find myself in yoga pants, a sweatshirt, and my Uggs :) I stay warm and comfortable.

5.What song makes you think of yourself?
Easy, jeans from MissMe. I love their jeans! And if there was any money left over, I would spend the rest on anything that sparkles, shines, or is sequined!
