Meet Lola Nelms—a name you’re going to want to remember. This rising star is a true triple threat and then some. At just 10 years old, Lola dances, sings, models, acts, plays piano, and even has her own dancewear line—all while chasing her dreams with fearless ambition and unstoppable drive. She doesn’t just love the spotlight—she owns it. From the moment she could sit up, Lola was already immersed in the world of dance. She started at just 6 months old in a mommy-andme class with her mother, a dance studio owner of over 20 years. That studio mirror became Lola’s best friend early on—and she’s been captivating reflections (and audiences) ever since. Dancer. Singer. Star in the Making. Lola trains relentlessly in jazz, hip hop, contemporary, lyrical, ballet, ballroom, and tap, earning top placements in solos, duets, and groups at conventions like 24seven, JUMP, NUVO, Velocity, and more. She’s been named VIP, MVA, and Top Winner, consistently making her mark wherever she performs.
Lola isn’t just a dancer. She’s a singer with a powerful voice and a stage presence to match. She’s already released her own original song, available on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and more—and she’s performed the National Anthem at major sporting events and large venues, commanding every crowd with confidence.
Coming Soon: "ThatGirl LOLA" As if she hasn’t done enough, Lola is now taking her story to the screen with her upcoming reality series "That Girl LOLA." The show will follow her real-life journey through dance, music, modeling, and acting, showing the world what it truly means to be a young, modern triple threat—and an inspiration for young girls everywhere.
