Like many female WWE ring announcers over the years, including Lillian Garcia and even Jojo Offerman, Irvin is also a singer.
Under her real name Samantha Johnson, she was able to sing her way into the semi-finals of America's Got Talent back in 2015. Johnson was put through to the Judge Cuts round following her audition.
The current WWE star was only cut from the show after the semi-finals. This wasn't Johnson's only taste of reality TV. She tried out for American Idol several times in the past but never got very far.

Irvin also has a background in the performing arts. She was the drama club director at Normandin Middle School for several years before deciding to live her dream of becoming a singer.
It was noted whilst on the show that she is the oldest of six children and that her parents are separated.
