Nikeata is known here with her cheeky short hairstyle. But how did the 42-year-old look before?
Nikeata Thompson has become an integral part of the industry for many superstars. The choreographer has already worked for artists such as Seeed, Jan Delay and Lena Meyer-Landrut. The 42-year-old also often proves her skills in seasons of “Germany’s Next Top Model” alongside top model Heidi Klum. While the viewers know the choreographer here mainly with a blonde dyed short haircut, Nikeata used to wear a completely different look!
No blonde pixie cut: In the clip you can see what Nikeata Thompson used to look like
Nikeata Thompson is best known to the general public for her brightly colored short hairstyle. She has been wearing this since 2018. With various wigs, the choreographer is also very experimental on her social networks: from dark curls to light braided hairstyles, everything is here. But what look did the British woman wear earlier?
In 2015, Nikeata Thomspon worked as a judge on the SAT.1 show “Got to Dance Kids”. At her job, Nikeata not only impressed with her cool manner, but also with her casual look and her maximalist-style outfits. With her dark, extremely long hair, the choreographer is hardly recognizable. It doesn’t matter whether it’s open or tied in two pigtails – Nikeata also looks great with long hair.
Nikeata Thompson: This is what you need to know about the choreographer
Nikeata Thompson was born on August 14, 1980 in the British city of Birmingham. The British woman has Jamaican ancestors and moved to Germany with her family at the age of six. Nikeata has been an absolute sports enthusiast since she was ten years old!
She was an athlete until she was 19, but discovered dancing at the age of 16. With her sense of rhythm, Nikeata wowed an American rapper in 2001 and was booked as a background dancer, although she had never attended dance school. Further successes were not long in coming: just two years later, the young dancer was discovered by the Berlin group Seeed.
Today, Nikeata Thompson works as a choreographer and advocates for a more just society. The promotion of diversity is particularly important to her. In her autobiography, which was published in 2021, the 42-year-old addresses topics such as self-love, body positivity and the visibility of people of colour.
Appearance as a guest judge: Nikeata Thompson is part of GNTM 2023
Nikeata Thompson has already prepared the models for major challenges in previous seasons of “Germany’s Next Top Model”. So also this year. As has now become known, the choreographer will prepare the GNTM candidates for a very special elimination walk on the beach. In episode 9, she will therefore take a very close look at the movements and poses of the models during a teaching.
In addition to the catwalk coaching, Nikeata top model Heidi Klum will also help with the decision. Which model will have to make the journey home?
