Biographie
Grace Good is an American modern circus performer based in Nashville, Tennessee. An America's Got Talent Season 18 semifinalist and two-time Guinness World Record holder, she has built an international career spanning television, professional sports entertainment, concert touring, and large-scale live entertainment. Known for her signature blend of fire performance, aerial artistry, multi-hoop hula hooping, and balancing atop a giant circus globe, Good has performed for audiences throughout the United States and around the world.
Good's journey began at age 18 after seeing a hula hoop performer online. Inspired by what she saw, she ordered her first hoop and began teaching herself the art of hula hooping. What began as curiosity quickly became a passion, setting her on an unexpected career path.
Choosing an unconventional career over a traditional one, Good left college to pursue circus arts full-time. She developed her craft through street performances, festivals, fairs, and community events, learning to captivate audiences one performance at a time. Those early years shaped both her performance style and her philosophy as an entertainer: creating moments that leave audiences feeling something long after the performance is over.
As her reputation grew, Good joined the internationally touring cast of Cirque Dreams, performing for audiences around the world before becoming a resident performer at a popular Nashville entertainment venue. Night after night, she refined her unique blend of modern circus arts while connecting with audiences from all walks of life.
When the 2020 pandemic brought live entertainment to an abrupt halt, Good refused to stop performing. She turned to social media, live-streaming performances while stages around the world sat empty. During that time, millions of people discovered her work online, dramatically expanding her audience and introducing her modern circus performances to viewers around the globe.
Good's first national television appearance came on Go-Big Show, where celebrity judge Snoop Dogg enthusiastically declared, "You're Vegas-ready, baby." Taking the encouragement to heart, Good relocated to Las Vegas to pursue the next chapter of her career.
During her years in Las Vegas, Good set two Guinness World Records and became an America's Got Talent Season 18 semifinalist. She later returned to television on AGT: Fantasy League and has also appeared on Game of Talents, France's La France a un Incroyable Talent, and Italy's L'Acchiappatalenti, showcasing her distinctive style of modern circus entertainment to audiences around the world.
As her career continued to grow, Good established herself as one of the country's premier arena entertainers, performing more than 100 halftime shows for NBA, WNBA, and NCAA teams, including appearances during the NBA Finals. Her performances have also been featured at NASCAR events, professional rodeos, festivals, theaters, corporate events, promotional events for brands including Monster Energy and Fireball Whiskey, and other major live productions, bringing modern circus entertainment to audiences far beyond the traditional circus stage.
Her innovative performances have earned two Guinness World Records recognizing both the most hula hoops spun simultaneously while on fire and the most hula hoops spun while balancing atop a circus globe. Her record-breaking achievements have also been recognized by Ripley's Believe It or Not! in both its annual publication and online features. She has also expanded into concert touring, including performances with Grammy-nominated recording artist Summer Walker.
Today, Good is based in Nashville and continues performing throughout the United States. She also founded Goodness Gracious Creative Entertainment, a Nashville-based immersive entertainment company specializing in custom entertainment experiences for corporate events, professional sports organizations, concerts, festivals, luxury celebrations, and experiential brand activations nationwide.
Although her stages have grown larger over the years, Good's goal has remained the same: to create performances that inspire wonder, spark emotion, and make people feel something. Through each performance, she hopes to remind audiences that extraordinary things are possible.
