As a young girl, Liana Pirraglia was always considered the "underdog."
"In the third grade, I was ambitious and open to trying new things," Pirraglia told PEOPLE in 2021. "I was so excited for the opportunity to be featured on Toddlers & Tiaras, I wanted to participate right away. It was cringey to be portrayed as the underdog of the pageant. I am always a winner in my own way."
"I am the same ambitious person that I was back then," she continued. "I am hard-working, dedicated, confident, and resilient. Through the years I've enjoyed improving my abilities as an actress, singer, dancer, and model. It is something that I plan to continue doing forever. I always strive for the best!"
At the time, Pirraglia said that her goal was to become a star, adding, "I would love to also be on Broadway, in a sitcom, and in TV series. In addition to my acting career, I want to share music with the world that people can connect with and enjoy."
Pirraglia attended the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in Manhattan. She has starred in some short films and made her feature debut in the 2021 movie Lock Down Love was a 2022 Hooters International Calendar Girl and
