Jeffries has also expanded her repertoire to DeeJaying. She loves music and had a huge music library and as such, whenever friends hosted a party, she was the go-to-guy for music. After a while, her friends (including the popular DJ and music producer, Diplo) encouraged her to take it up professionally. It is a decision that has paid off as she has deejayed at several notable events such as the Vanity Fair Oscars party, Coachella music festival, as well as iconic Las Vegas venues – Wet Republic and OMNIA.
From playing other people’s music, Chantel Jeffries has also delved into making her own music.

Who Is Chantel Jeffries’ Dad
Chantel Jeffries grew up in a family of four consisting of her dad, Colonel Edward Jeffries; mom, Kathleen Jeffries, as well as a younger brother. Her dad was a high ranking officer in the Marine Corps and as such, Jeffries had the life of a regular army brat, moving from one state to the other.
She went to middle school in Jacksonville and from there, moved to Virginia, where she graduated from Massaponax High School. For her college education, Jeffries attended the Florida International University where she studied Communication Arts and Fine Arts. It is said that she graduated with a 4.0 GPA.
Who’s Her Boyfriend?
Chantel Jeffries regularly makes the headlines for her romantic relationships; she has reportedly dated a number of popular faces in Hollywood. But it must be stressed that she has never confirmed nor denied these relationships. Some of the people she has reportedly dated include Logan Paul (popular YouTuber), Wilmer Eduardo Valderrama (actor), Kyrie Irving (professional basketball player), Jordan Clarkson (NBA player), Travis Scott (rapper), Desean Jackson (NFL wide receiver) and Justin Combs (son of Sean Diddy Combs). Most recently, Jeffries has been linked with the singer, The Weekend. However, there is no official confirmation. We can safely conclude that she is not publicly dating anyone at the moment.
Relationship With Justin Bieber
Jeffries also reportedly dated Justin Bieber. In fact, she was in his car when he was stopped by the police in January 2014 for drag racing. Before that, they had been spotted together at a nightclub. Bieber was later arrested and charged with several offenses including driving under the influence, speeding, resisting arrest, and driving with an expired license.
Even though Jeffries did not receive any criminal charges for the incident, many news outlets dug into her background, unearthing her past record. They reported that she had been arrested for stabbing another girl in the arm in 2011. The charges were dropped after she agreed to pay court costs. The California native, however, denied the allegations and stated that nothing of that sort ever happened.
