San Diego, California Aug 24, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - The world of celebrity, competition, and entrepreneurship is colliding in the semifinals of America’s Favorite Couple, the nationally recognized competition now hosted by Emily and Academy Award-nominated actor Jeff Goldblum. Among the standout semifinalists are San Diego’s own Max and Cheyanne Marien, affectionately known as Team Fly.
With Variety Magazine spotlighting the contest’s cultural impact, Max and Cheyanne’s story has captured the attention of both the business community and entertainment press. The duo are not just a couple; they are co-founders and operators of San Diego Paragliding School and Max Acro, two of the nation’s most innovative paragliding training programs, blending entrepreneurship, athletic excellence, and lifestyle branding.
The contest, which will award $20,000 to the ultimate winning couple, has seen the Mariens soar past hundreds of competitors to earn a place in the semifinals. Their mission? To redefine what it means to be a modern couple in both business and sport.
“Paragliding has taught us that love and business both demand courage, trust, and vision,” said Cheyanne. “Competing on a national stage alongside some of the country’s most dynamic couples, with Jeff Goldblum cheering us on, is truly surreal.”
Max added, “We’ve built our lives around taking flight, and now we’re asking America to lift us even higher. Every vote puts us closer not only to the prize but to amplifying our work as entrepreneurs, creators, and community leaders.”
