"I have been shooting for a number of years and have seen my share of talented performers. One of the most talented I have ever seen is Diana Reyes. On my many trips to Toronto I have had the pleasure of seeing her dance. Believe me when I tell you there are very few that can touch her."
-Little X (Director)
"Ms. Reyes has appeard in numerous music videos and feature films and is well respected in the dance field for her previous and ongoing success.
Ms. Reyes was signed by Bloc Talent Agency, Inc., one of the most distinguised talent agencies for dancers, choreographers and directors in the United States.
She was chosen as one of the lead hip-hop dancers in the 2003 Universal Pictures feature film "Honey".
Additionally, Ms. Reyes was the lead hip-hop dancer in the video "Dance, Dance" by Fall Out Boy which won the 2006 MTV Video Music Award for Viewer's Choice.
PLease be advised that Dance/USA is in support of brining this outstanding artist in the dance field to the people of the United States."
Haley Gordon, Government Affairs Manager Dance/USA

LIVE @ Raye6's "SouthBeach in Brooklyn" 6.14.08 (Collabo w/ Ibrahim)
"Like an internationally renown abstract painter whose aim is to arrest the poetry of life in flux on the surface of her canvas within the confines of her frame,
So that a century later when a stranger perceives her masterful creations the poetry of that story within the arrested motion is read again and again,
The trials and tribulations, joyous momentous occasions, ardent love & casual concupiscence, pensive thought and memorable triumphs of her life that are expressed through her dance will exclaim,
That art doesn’t merely imitate life and vice versa . . . they are one in the same."
