Most 90 Day Fiancé stars don't shun the spotlight once their seasons are over, and it's time to talk about the franchise celebs who have appeared in music videos. Many past and present cast members have become influencers and fitness coaches, while others leverage their 90 Day Fiancé fame to become popular on platforms such as Cameo and OnlyFans. The music videos that 90DF stars appear in are usually found on YouTube or Vimeo.
Some 90 Day Fiancé franchise stars had musical careers prior to appearing on their respective shows. However, there are also several 90DF reality stars who began making music after their seasons aired. There are also a handful of celebs who have appeared in other artists' music videos.
In some cases, 90 Day Fiancé stars have helped each other to stay relevant by featuring each other in their music video clips. It's fun for fans when 90DF stars appear in videos that are created by other people in the 90 Day Fiancé franchise. Read on to find out which cast members have starred in music videos.
Jesse Meester
Jesse Meester was introduced to fans in 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days seasons 1 and 2, as a model and personal trainer. Earlier this year, the Amsterdam local appeared in a music video by the Dutch electronic band, Electral Presidents. The song “Home” was said to be inspired by the COVID-19 lockdown and it's the band’s first-ever released single and video.
Paola Mayfield
Fans got a glimpse of the start of bold and adventurous Paola's Miami modeling career in 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? season 1. As her career progressed, Paola went on to star in two music videos. She initially starred in the video for "Hoy Se Bebe" by reggaeton artist King Heric and was later featured in the video for the hip-hop song, "Kompa" by J.Creole and KG Ja, via Vibe Creyol at YouTube.
Colt Johnson
Colt starred in the music video for indie musician Alex Winston's 2019 single, "Miss U 1000000," which is available at the True Believer Films channel at Vimeo. Fans may recognize the storyline that unfolds in the video (or find it somewhat familiar). The "Miss U 1000000" video is a retelling of the relationship between Colt and his ex-wife, Larissa Lima.
Released shortly after the couple's dramatic divorce, the video starts with Colt picking up Alex at the airport in Las Vegas with flowers, which is something that Larissa criticized him for not doing on the show. The video then shows Alex going to Colt's house and getting along with his mother Debbie Johnson and their cat, Cookie Dough. In case any fans missed the point that this video is a direct parody of Colt's relationship with Larissa, the video even features name and occupation titles below each actor when they first appear on screen, just like they do on 90 Day Fiancé when they introduce new cast members.
Larissa Lima
This is a bit of an odd one. Shortly after the Alex Winston video featuring Colt was released, Larissa was featured in a music video for "If I Scream In My Sleep," which is a song by Brian Hanvey. Brian happens to be the new husband of a certain famous redhead who's a franchise icon. She is Colt's other ex, Jess Caroline. Jess and Brian actually met through Larissa's friend Carmen after Colt cheated on Jess with Vanessa Guerra in 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? season 5.
In the "If I Scream In My Sleep" video, Larissa and Brian are in a relationship, and Larissa kicks Brian out of the house for wanting to pursue his music career. Larissa then invites her real-life beau Eric Nichols over, and the two swim in the pool (and hit the bed) while Brian sings about having nightmares. To complete the trend of this scattered social group starring in each other's music videos, Brian later wrote a song about Larissa when she and Jess were fighting. Called "Mess," as per the Brian Hanvey channel on YouTube, the music video was actually shot by Jess but only stars Brian.
Ariela Weinberg
In 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 2, American Ariela Weinberg moves to Ethiopia in order to live with her partner and the future father of her child, musician Biniyam Shibre. After Ariela had lived in Ethiopia for some time and Biniyam was continuing to release new music videos, fans were surprised to see that the New Jersey local was not featured in any of her partner's videos. However, sleuthing fans seem to have been able to uncover another surprise after doing a little bit of Internet digging.
Before she and Biniyam were officially in a relationship, Ariela starred in a music video by another Ethiopian artist. The video for "Honey" by Andinet Ali features Ariela and Andinet cuddling in bed. Ari reportedly announced her relationship with Biniyam approximately one month after the video was posted.
Natalie Mordovtseva
Since Natalie Mordovtseva's first franchise appearance in 90 Day Fiancé season 7, fans have been able to unearth videos that Natalie starred in when she lived in Ukraine. When Natalie came to the U.S. to live with her now ex-husband Mike Youngquist, she began arguing with Mike's mother Trish Youngquist in 90 Day Fiancé season 8. They clashed over which job she would take in the U.S. Although Trish had her own ideas about the career path that Natalie should take, Natalie insisted that she was an actress when she lived in Ukraine and that she wanted to continue to star in movies and videos while living in the United States.
Natalie starred in a 2018 music video by the Irish musical artist, EDEN. The video is for a song called “float,” which was released before fans first met Natalie in 90 Day Fiancé season 7. The video for "float" portrays Natalie and the woman she's dating in the video taking a car ride. Suddenly, the couple discovers a strange object in the middle of the road. The artsy and cryptic video is hard to decipher, but the object appears to cause the eventual decline of Natalie's relationship with her partner. Although fans in the comments of the "If I Scream In My Sleep" music video by Brian Hanvey were quick to criticize Larissa's performance, fans in the comments of the "float" video can be seen praising the Ukrainian reality star's acting skills.
