CORONA,
Calif., Feb. 20, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- More
than just a pretty face! Monster Energy is proud to welcome
five-time MMA World 'Ring Girl of the Year' Arianny Celeste from Las Vegas, Nevada, on Episode 4 of Season 3 of
the sports and pop culture podcast UNLEASHED with The Dingo and
Danny.
Recorded at Studio M inside Monster Energy headquarters in
Corona, California, this latest
51-minute episode tells the story of the multi-talented model with
a track record of media awards and appearances in high-profile
magazines.
Speaking on her work as a UFC Octagon Girl, Celeste said: "I
think people don't really give us that much credit. It actually
does take a lot of work and dedication. Some people make a New
Year's resolution to go to the gym. But we go to the gym four to
six times a week; it's our job to look good. So obviously, we're
going to be killing it!"
For a look inside Celeste's routine and work ethic, fans can now
tune in to Episode 04, Season 03 of UNLEASHED. Released today, the
new podcast is streaming on all major platforms, including Spotify,
iTunes, and YouTube.
Born and raised in Las Vegas,
Nevada, Arianny Celeste
always had a profound interest in sports and attended college at
UNLV, majoring in Fitness Management
and Nutrition. But when she started working as a Ring Girl at fight
events in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), a host of
opportunities opened: Celeste immediately won 'Ring Girl of the
Year 2006' by Fighters Only Magazine and moved on to win the World
MMA Award for Ring Girl of the Year five times (2008, 2009, 2010,
2011 and 2015). She also appeared in photo shoots for international
magazines such as FHM, Maxim, Playboy, Sports Illustrated, and
Fighter's Only Magazine, among others. Hear all about Celeste's
journey – and long-time friendly rivalry with podcast host
Brittany Palmer – only on
UNLEASHED!
Find out the inside story on Celeste in conversation with the
two podcast hosts, Australian action sports personality Luke "The
Dingo" Trembath and professional snowboarder Danny Kass on Episode 04, Season 03 of
UNLEASHED. Also joining the interview is Celeste's good friend (and
competitor): acclaimed painter, model, and UFC ambassador
Brittney Palmer who contributes to
the episode. Tune in right here.
Looking back on her beginnings, Celeste said on UNLEASHED: "I
was born and raised in Vegas but moved out for a long time to
pursue acting, modeling, all that good stuff. But now I'm back, in
my hometown!" During her formative years, she studied kinesiology
at college in Las Vegas: "I've
always been into the body and how it works. And working out. I've
always been super active as a cheerleader and gymnast."
Initial plans to work with athletes in injury management took a
backseat once Celeste began working with the Ultimate Fighting
Championship (UFC). "I started with UFC, and it took over my life
and I've been doing it ever since." In retrospect, Celeste broke
ground as one of the first UFC Octagon Girls walking the stage
before fights: "I came on in 2006 and they bought the company in
2004. So, it was still brand-new!"
Since then, Celeste has won several awards as Ring Girl of the
Year – often in direct competition with UNLEASHED co-host
Brittany Palmer. She segued her fame
into modeling opportunities for major magazines, as well as real
estate ventures and other businesses: "Everything I've done outside
of UFC I'm super proud of. I have taken that talk as fuel; 'She's
pretty, but can she talk? Does she have brains? What does she do
besides that?' And made sure that I took this UFC opportunity and
ran with it!"
