Haynes was born in Los Angeles, California, in the neighborhood of Silverlake to mixed parents. Her mother, Helene Kress, was a singer and actress, and was never married to Cheyenne's biological father Scott Haynes, a self taught musician that played drums, guitar, bass, piano and sang. Her maternal grandmother, Helen Glavey and her mother raised her in their home that they purchased for Cheyenne when she was two.
Haynes actually began her career before she was born. Her mother was 8 months pregnant and looking for a new agent. Dorothy Day Otis interviewed her and asked if she could represent her unborn daughter when she was born. Cheyenne booked her first job as a model at the age of two for the movie Baby Geniuses. She also booked her first commercial for the car lock The Club when she was two. She worked on various commercials, print ads, TV Shows & Films but became a Celebreality Star when she went on and almost won Danny Bonaduce's I Know My Kid's a Star. It only took her and her mom one audition to book the TV Show when the other contestants had 5 and 6 auditions each. Haynes gained critical acclaim for her role as Eva in the Lifetime Movie Network's Lies In Plain Sight, where Rosie Pérez played her mother.
Haynes is an activist for animal rights. She is a very strong supporter of the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). She has a great affinity for animals and hopes become even more active as she gets older and help save as many animals as possible from becoming extinct.
