Heather Morris was born in California, but spent most of her younger years in Arizona. At a young age she discovered her talent for dance, and in 2006 she auditioned with her best friend for the hit reality TV show So You Think You Can Dance. Although she didnāt make it into the top 20, the show was a stepping-stone for her career in dance.
A year later, Heather landed a job as the backup dancer for BeyoncĆ©, and accompanied her on two different world tours.
