CJ Perry began her professional performance career early, dancing with the Latvian National Ballet and training at the Riga Choreography School. She continued her extensive training at prestigious dance institutions in New York City before earning a degree in dance and acting from Florida State University, where she gained recognition as one of the ‘FSU Cowgirls’ and secured modeling opportunities with brands such as RIDGID Tool and Red Bull. Transitioning fully into entertainment, Perry joined the girl group No Means Yes in 2009, recording a single and additional tracks. She also performed as a backup dancer for prominent artists including Keri Hilson, Nelly, Pink, and Usher.
In 2023, Perry made a highly anticipated debut with All Elite Wrestling (AEW) under the ring name ‘CJ,’ where she managed her husband Miro, and subsequently Andrade El Idolo, showcasing her continued prowess in sports entertainment. Her enduring impact within professional wrestling and entertainment was further solidified in April 2025, when she re-signed with WWE under a prestigious ‘Legends’ contract. This agreement ensures her continued presence with the organization and reinforces her legacy as a versatile and marketable talent across film, television, and sports entertainment, capable of captivating audiences in diverse roles.
