Description

Crazy. Bold. Fearless.

Parris Goebel was destined to make her mark.

Young Queen is the autobiography of a dancer with a dream . . . a young Polynesian girl who grew up in New Zealand and went on to conquer the hip hop world.

In this honest memoir, Parris Goebel shares the extraordinary story of how she went from high-school dropout to award-winning dancer, choreographer and video director.

At just 19, Parris got her big break choreographing for Jennifer Lopez. She has since worked with some of the biggest stars in music, including Janet Jackson, Rihanna and Justin Bieber, creating his record-breaking video, ‘Sorry.’

A true #girlboss, Parris Goebel is changing the game.

In these pages, Parris reveals the challenges, fears and obstacles she’s faced on her journey and gives fans and readers a backstage look into her life and the lessons she’s learned.

Filled with photos from Parris’s personal collection, on tour and on set, this is a fun and inspiring read for anyone with a dream.

Empowering and motivational, Young Queen has got da juice . . . and you can have it too.
