Chantelle Paige

Chantelle Paige, born Chantelle Paige Soutas on February 3, 1988, in Los Gatos, California, began her career at a young age. She started modeling at three years old and appeared on over 35 catalog covers, magazines, brochures, and billboards. At age eight, a ‘Chantelle’ doll and book series were created in her likeness for Storybook Heirlooms. Her acting career began with a JC Penney commercial at age five, leading to 14 commercials for companies such as Disney, Mattel, Mervyn’s, and Nissan. Throughout her childhood, Chantelle was part of top-ranked dance teams and performed in 18 musical theater productions, earning an ‘Outstanding Bay Area Actress’ award for her role as Ariel in Footloose in high school. She graduated from a private Christian high school in 2006 with a 4.1 GPA while also volunteering for Big Brothers/Big Sisters and Hurricane Katrina Relief.

Her first love was music. In 2006, her six-song Demo EP was produced by Tone, known for working with artists like Santana and Green Day. After posting her first song on MySpace Music, she quickly became one of the top 20 unsigned artists on the site, accumulating over 256,000 fans and close to 11 million song spins. Her musical talent led her to open for artists such as The Pussycat Dolls, Pretty Ricky, Bobby Valentino, and Robin Thicke in 2007. At 19, Chantelle signed with Interscope/Cherrytree Records, joining the R&B/rap group Flipsyde. With Flipsyde, she recorded the album “State of Survival,” which included the track “Champion,” chosen as a theme song for the 2008 Summer Olympics and featured in the EA Sports NBA Live 09 video game. She appeared in music videos “When It Was Good” (2009) and “A Change” (2009) with Flipsyde. In 2009, Flipsyde made a cameo in Lady Gaga’s “Just Dance” music video, and Chantelle was featured in Colby O’Donis’s music video “I Wanna Touch You.”

Chantelle toured Europe with Sarah Connor and shared stages with artists like Akon, Ciara, N.E.R.D., Kevin Rudolf, T.I., and Ludacris. After Flipsyde went on hiatus, she continued as a solo artist, recording “Devastated” with Space Cowboy and Martin Kierszenbaum in 2009. She performed this song as an opening act for LMFAO and Far East Movement on the Party Rock Tour. More recently, Chantelle has become known as a content creator and founder of Senna Case, a gender-neutral clothing line for children with matching elements for adults. She is married to Coulter Mulligan and has two children.
