Career
Chyna began stripping in Maryland to pay for college tuition. While attending Johnson & Wales University in Miami, Florida, she resumed stripping and was too exhausted to attend classes. She dropped out after repeatedly falling asleep in class, focusing instead on stripping and modeling. She borrowed the name "Blac Chyna" from a customer. While stripping at a popular Miami club, her exotic look made her popular; radio host Angela Yee described her as looking "like someone who was going to be famous."[2] In 2010, Drake name-dropped her in "Miss Me".[2] Her rising popularity led to modeling jobs on the covers of Dimepiece, Straight Stuntin and Black Men's Magazine. Later in the same year, she was cast as Nicki Minaj's stunt double in the song Monster by Kanye West.[3]
During her career, Chyna had several surgeries to increase her breast size, she also had surgery to make them smaller.[4]
In February 2013, Chyna enrolled in JLS Professional Make Up Artist School.

Chyna said rapper Tyga asked her to join him on tour in 2011, but she refused. In the following year, she appeared in his music video "Rack City" and began a relationship with him.[2] They had a son together, who was born in October 2012.[5] The couple split in 2014 when he began a relationship with Kylie Jenner. Chyna and Jenner feuded with each other over social media, but Chyna mended her relationship with the Kardashians after she began dating Jenner's half-brother, Rob Kardashian, in 2016.[2] Their daughter was born in November 2016.[6] In December 2016, Kardashian announced on his Instagram post that he and Chyna split.[7] They reconciled a few days after but separated again in February 2017.
