Everything you need to know about UFC Octagon girl, Arianny Celeste.

Arianny Celeste is one of the UFC's most recognized Octagon girls.

Celeste was born Penelope López Márquez but goes by a childhood nickname of Arianny for her role as a model and Octagon ring card girl.

She made her debut in the UFC at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in 2006 and was voted as Right Girl of the Year that same year. She's gone on to win that honor over the years multiple times, including four consecutive years in a row.

As a model she appeared in Maxim, Playboy and Sports Illustrated, among others. She was even featured on the cover of the May 2010 edition of Maxium where she was voted the "The Hottest UFC Octagon Girl." She was also included in the Maxim's Hot 100 list for more than five years.

She's also done hosting duties both on the UFC Ultimate Insider in 2010 and on the show Overhaulin' from 2014-2015.

She's also featured in the UFC video game.

In a 2015 interview Celeste joked about how she used to have to model while men were weighing in naked.

"During the weigh-ins, the guys are almost naked. I have to stand there while being filmed live as they get undressed. Sometimes when the guys are over weight, they keep taking off their clothes and get more and more naked," she told Iron Man Magazine. "Then, all of a sudden, they drop their shorts and are completely naked in front of the crowd. I have to stand there and try to look away while still posing for the camera!"

Celeste has one child, a son named Raiden, who she welcomed in 2020.

“One week ago, you changed our lives forever, for the better!” she wrote on Instagram announcing his birth. “I can’t help but think you’re the cutest … even your poopy face! Just me or do all parents feel the same?”
