90 Day Fiancé star Biniyam “Bini” Shibre is a man of many talents, but what does he do for work following his arrival in the United States? In Touch breaks down how the TLC personality makes a living, including his recent performance as an acrobat in the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show.

In Ethiopia, the 90 Day: Last Resort star worked a variety of jobs, ranging from nightlife to health and fitness before trying to support a family with wife .

“I’m doin’ dancing, singing, teaching personal training, martial arts, gymnastic [sic],” the Africa native explained during his season 9 debut of 90 Day Fiancé in April 2022. “I do so many things.”

Following his arrival in Princeton, New Jersey, Biniyam had aspirations of becoming an MMA fighter. During the series, fans watched as Ariela and Biniyam clashed over the costs of training due to Ariela feeling like it wasn’t a practical career path to support a family. 

“Bini believes anything is possible, and that’s so wonderful, that’s so lovely, but I’ve done the research,” Ariela told producers during the May 22, 2022, episode. “And most MMA fighters really don’t make that much money, and a lot of the money that they make goes right back into their training again.” 

However, it seems the TLC personality has left his MMA dreams in the past and has gone on to a career in stunt performing since establishing a life in the United States.

“Congratulations to my son-in-law, Biniyam, on his new role as a superhero in Feld Entertainment’s Marvel Universe Live!” Ariela’s mom, Janice Nini, announced via Instagram in June 2023. “We always knew you were a talented performer, but now you get to show the world!”

Biniyam surprised fans once again in 2025 when his wife, Ari, proudly revealed that he performed as an acrobat in ‘s Super Bowl halftime show for the Kansas City Chiefs vs. Philadelphia Eagles game, which resulted in an Eagles 40-22 win on February 9.

“Congrats to Bini! He was one of the acrobats on the street lamp in the halftime show!” Ari gushed. “I am SO SO SO proud of you!”

“Of course when I talked to Bini, he wasn’t nervous at all. I would have been freaking out!” she added. “What an amazing opportunity to perform at one of the biggest events in the world in front of the American president!”

Apart from Biniyam’s onstage career, he offers virtual workouts through Zoom starting at $150 dollars. The 90 Day Fiancé alum is also on Cameo, where fans can pay for a custom video message. 

If fans want to connect with the personal trainer on a deeper level, he’s also available on the platform, Unfiltered, where he earns money when users subscribe to his content. 

Biniyam also earns a paycheck from his appearances on the TLC franchise. 

“90 Day Fiancé pays their cast members $1,000 to $1,500 per episode,” a source told Radar in January 2019. It was reported that the cast’s compensation works on a sliding scale and landing a spot on a spinoff will earn a higher payout.
