Chachi Hilden

Olivia “Chachi” Hildén, born Olivia Gonzales in Houston, Texas, developed an early interest in dance. At the age of six, she began her training in ballet. Her exposure to hip-hop dance at a local event three years later significantly influenced her career path, leading her to enroll in Lanier Middle School where hip hop was taught. In 2010, she successfully auditioned for I.aM.mE, a newly formed dance crew, becoming its youngest member.

Hilden gained prominence in 2011 when I.aM.mE won the sixth season of “America’s Best Dance Crew,” a significant achievement that marked her entry into mainstream entertainment. Her skills were further recognized when she served as a backup dancer for the Tribute to Britney Spears at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards. In the following years, Hilden continued to build her career in dance and acting, earning the “Teen Choreographer of the Year” award at the World of Dance 2012 Industry Awards. She also appeared in the Disney TV program “Shake It Up” in 2012 and choreographed the dance for the “Monster High” theme song in 2013.

Her career expanded into acting with a lead role in the 2014 feature film “The Legend of DarkHorse County,” for which she received a Remi Award for Best Supporting Actress at the 2014 WorldFest-Houston International Film Festival. She also took on a recurring role in “East Los High” from 2014, and starred in her own reality web series, “Chachi’s World” (2015-2017). More recently, Hilden has participated in reality television series such as “Ultimate Expedition” (2018), “Yökylässä Maria Veitola” (2020), and “Masked Singer Suomi” (2022) as the character Party Animal. She married Finnish stunt performer and actor Jukka Hildén in 2019 and has since embraced family life while continuing her work in entertainment.
