In an interview on Maxim.com, Celeste said she loves music and dancing and dreams of breaking into acting. When asked if she'd consider actually fighting, like fellow UFC Girl Gina Carrano, Celeste said "the thought of getting hit in the face does not appeal to me." When asked about what kind of guys she likes, she explained that physical appearance wasn't a priority. She said she prefers "computer nerds" and someone who can make her laugh.http://www.maxim.com/girls/girls-of-maxim/90797/arianny-celeste.html
