From 2017 to 2022 she was a long term regular cast by playing [https://youtu.be/vqk6GK97k2A Odalie Allen] on the Starz/YouTube Premium series ''Step Up: High Water'' on 30 episodes; the spin off of the famous Step UP features.

Sadly the show got cancelled after third season.<ref>[https://tvseriesfinale.com/tv-show/step-up-cancelled-at-starz-no-season-four-for-dance-drama-series/ TV Series Finale - Step up cancelled]</ref> Starz has canceled the drama series after its one-season run on the network and the satellite TV station got sold in 2016 to Canadian broadcaster ''Lionsgate''. The first two seasons of the Lionsgate TV TV-produced Step Up ran on YouTube. After the Google-owned company in 2019 pulled out of the original scripted business, leaving the series in limbo, Lionsgate-owned Starz stepped in and picked it up for a third season, serving as a series finale. Lionsgate has been scrutinizing its balance sheets as the company is preparing to spin off its studio from Starz next year though sources indicated that the cancellations are largely product of fiscal austerity in a very tough economic environment as media companies are stepping up cost-cutting measures. Inspired by the Lionsgate film franchise, Step Up follows the drama, scandalous romance, betrayals and rivalries told through the intersection of the worlds of music and dance within a highly sought-after performance empire. It centers on Sage Odom (Ne-Yo) as the legendary founder of Atlanta’s famed High Water Performing Arts School and Collette (Christina Milian), his partner in High Water and in life. Milian took over the role of Collette, which was originated by the late Naya Rivera, in Season 3. <ref>[https://deadline.com/2022/12/step-up-canceled-starz-three-sasons-no-season-4-1235197789/ ‘Step Up’ Canceled After Its One Season On Starz]</ref> Just ''YouTube Premium'' alone, former ''YouTube Red'', had in September 2022 80M+ paying subscribers and was available in 110 countries. | In 2017, she was playing one of the [https://youtu.be/4cmEkthDcNE USA Phantom Dancer in the final battle] with some her real life ImmaBeast fellows in ''"Step UP 6: China - The Year of then Dance"'' ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRlVV38txiQ Trailer], [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJFIJAPz6-Q Behind-the-scenes]).
