Heather Morris – Bio

Born in Ventura County, California, on 1st of February 1987, Heather Morris has the full name, Heather Elizabeth Morris. She is of a mixed ethnicity that consists of English, Scottish, and German but via her birthplace, she holds an American nationality. Young Heather is said to have lost her dad when she was 14 and with respect to her mum, no info has been made public yet but the celebrity has two sisters named April and Crystal. From the young age of 9, Heather commenced dance training and though she was able to finish her high school education at Desert Mountain High School, Scottsdale, Arizona, the talented dancer opted out of her college education at the Arizona State University to concentrate on her dancing as well as acting.

The talented dancer who has also groomed herself into a seasoned actress made her first film appearance in the 2009 film Fired Up where she was cast as Fiona. Although the film did not launch her acting career, it definitely drew attention to her and subsequently, she landed her breakthrough role as Brittany S. Pierce in the sitcom Glee. Heather Morris is not just an actress but also a dance tutor as she was the one who taught the dance steps for Beyonce’s song “Single Ladies”. In 2011, when the Glee Tour was on, Heather performed the song “I’m a Slave 4 U” by Britney Spears. That same year, she co-wrote Nuthin’ But A Glee Thang, a funny skit made from the original version, “Nuthin’ but a ‘G’ Thang” produced by Dr. Dre. The actress also landed roles in films and TV series like Go-Go Boy Interrupted, Spring Breakers, How I Met Your Mother, Ice Age: Continental Drift, Glee: The 3D Concert Movie, Raven’s Home and several others.

Heather Morris drew a lot of attention in March 2017 when she made it known that she would be participating in the Dancing with the Stars 24th season. Many people said she was not supposed to contest on the show as she was a professional dancer, unlike other participants. Notwithstanding the uproar, Heather was listed among the contestants as the organizers pointed out that even though she knew how to dance, she does not have the experience of dancing with a partner nor does she possess ballroom dance techniques. Heather started the competition with Maksim Chmerkovskiy as her partner but he sustained an injury during the first week which made her switch to Alan Bersten, with whom she danced from the 2nd to the 5th week. Upon Maksim’s recovery, Heather danced with him in the sixth week but they could not make it through the next round.
