Meet Justina Miles, Rihanna’s ASL Performer
After halftime of Super Bowl LVII, the internet has lost its mind over Justina Miles — who signed for the deaf audience at home while passionately dancing to Rihanna’s set list.
“Bring down everyone-everyone else-bring down one of the best translations of live signed music performances I’ve ever seen. Musicality, killer articulation, choice, layered representation, preparation, originality! No hat all slap,” said one viewer.
The Super Bowl was indeed a dream come true for Justina. But he is not only happy because he got the chance to share his experience with the whole world. The star is also proud to have truly brought that empowerment to millions and millions of black deaf people across the country who have never really seen it before. “I think that really lifts every voice, even mine,” he added.
Her performance also made history as she was the first female deaf ASL interpreter to grace the Super Bowl halftime show.
Also joining him as sign language interpreters for the 52nd Super Bowl are Troy Kotsur and Colin Denny.
Justina Miles’ career
Justina Miles received her first paycheck as a fast food worker in the summer of 2020. She is a CarHopper and takes home at least $40-$60 in tips every day.

Only there he learned what it means to be a working family and have a caring owner.
In 2021, she then joined Walmart as a cashier. He likes the pay there and the co-workers are friendly. However, he does not like rude customers and will quit his job soon.
Meanwhile, Justina is working to earn a living, the star is also gaining more fans on TikTok. In fact, his TikTok version of #crushonyouchallenge went viral on Twitter in 2020 where he interpreted a song by rapper Lil’ Kim.

In the future, she wants to graduate from my HBCU, Bowie State University as a registered nurse. She aspires to have a Bachelor of Science in Nursing because she likes to help others, “I’m a people person, I’m great at science, I’m committed, and I like to travel. I am perfect for this job.
