Shiloh Jolie Lands K-Pop Video Role After Auditioning as 'Shi'

Starship says the team learned of her parentage only after filming.

Overview

  • Shiloh appears as a background dancer in K-pop singer Dayoung’s music video for What’s a Girl to Do, with the label confirming she auditioned in the United States under the stage name Shi.
  • She performed with the dance crew Culture and advanced through a final round before being cast, according to Starship Entertainment.
  • The production learned who her parents are only after the shoot, and the video credits list her by the single name Shi.
  • She has used variations of Shi in past creative work and in 2024 legally dropped her father’s surname in California to go by Shiloh Jolie.
  • Open auditions are common in K-pop and often draw global talent, which helps overseas dancers earn roles in Korean music videos on merit.
