Despite still being in high school, Chance Combs already envisions a bright future in the performing arts. Though she has dabbled in modeling alongside her famous twin sisters, her passion lies in acting. Inspired by trailblazers like Zendaya, she aspires to use her acting career as a springboard for directing, producing, and pursuing entrepreneurial ventures related to her craft.
“Acting has helped me evolve more as a per- son, and it’s helped me step out of my comfort zone,” she told V Magazine in a recent interview. Though still in high school, she talks excitedly about starting her first college-level performing arts program. Inspired by trailblazing multi-hyphenates like Zendaya, Chance aims to use her acting career as a jumping-off point for directing, producing, and entrepreneurial pursuits rooted in her craft.
In the same interview with V Magazine, Chance opened up about how her famous father has infuenced her and her siblings.
“Growing up, we’ve always been around different artists and in the studio with our dad,” she explained in May. “Even though we don’t want to pursue music right now, just seeing his work ethic and persistence has definitely been a big contributor to the drive we have to pursue our dreams.”
In addition to Chance, Diddy is a dad to daughter Love Sean, 8 months, twins D’Lila Star and Jessie James, 16, sons King, 25, and Justin Dior, 29, and 32-year-old Quincy Brown.
