Teyana Taylor, The Girl In Kanye’s Racy ‘Fade’ Video, Was An Early MTV Star

She guest-starred on 'My Super Sweet Sixteen'

After Kanye West gave his hilarious, insightful, and totally on-brand speech at the 2016 MTV Music Video Awards, he surprise-dropped his new racy "Fade" video. The vid stars singer and actress Teyana Taylor, who is signed to Yeezy's G.O.O.D. Music label.

Taylor appeared in a (literally) steamy shower scene with husband Iman Shumpert, an NBA champ and Cleveland Cavalier, and it was the definition of relationship goals. But if Taylor looks familiar, you might recognize her from MTV's My Super Sweet Sixteen. Remember her rainbow dress?!

Taylor has come a long way since her Season 4 episode aired in 2007. She released the single "Google Me" in 2008 and her album VII in 2014. She was also featured with Wiz Khalifa on Fat Joe's 2013 song "Ballin'."
