Rising Starlet: Ashley Avis

Beauty and brains can be an enchanting combo especially when alluding to delectable enchanter ASHLEY AVIS. This talented gal has been in the industry as an actress, model and writer/producer, each time creating works that aim to stir the hearts of audiences. A look at her concept trailer “Watch Me” aka “Guardian” which deals with horrifying sexual trauma is so poignant, especially this year with violence against women so rampant worldwide; the rapes in India for example creating such notoriety. Just the boldness of ASHLEY to delve in this darkest of themes should be applauded, an eye-opener to the endless suffering of victims. She is an evocative actress, transitioning between emotions effortlessly and it’s not always the grim aspects of features that she excels. Give her a witty role such as the one in “The Cynical Life of Harper Hall” where as the main character, she relates her horrifying dating experiences in LA which for many is a bitter reality. Even Talk-show host Craig Ferguson has admitted it’s hard to find decent men in LA and we too can be downright sardonic to realize that…lol.

ASHLEY’s accomplishments also include starting the production company ALCHEMY PICTURES which is churning out some intriguing independent projects that cover everything from comedy to horror. I’m already amazed by how proficient ASHLEY is at juggling a multitude of tasks! Head over to the ASHLEY AVIS OFFICIAL SITE and be wowed by this fetching hottie. She can also be seen in the spoof-heavy creepy comedy “Paranormal Movie” which is out on DVD and on ITUNES. Envisage ASHLEY to expand her following as she sterlingly wows us both in front and behind the camera.

Rising Starlet: Megan Heyn

Comediennes do have a way with words and the delightfully gorgeous MEGAN HEYN has all the right attributes to be a comedic maven. She caught the eye on “2 Broke Girls” as the dreadlocked, zen-like boulangerie owner Semhar who gets on the nerve of both Max Black (Kat Dennings) and Caroline Channing (Beth Behrs). Check out her reel (above) for the priceless scene as the 3 get into some verbal discourse that tickles me every time I view it….:) Megan gave as good as she got and has the natural flair to be the next Amy Poehler. They did star together in “Freak Dance”, the satire of dancing films such as “Footloose” and “Step Up” with Amy playing her mom. Megan plays the rebellious rich girl with a thing for street dancing and is a fetching gem who also dazzles in the singing department.

How about that adorable voice of hers which for me can get quickly addictive as will the winsome captivation MEGAN has in plenitude. Check out the MEGAN HEYN OFFICIAL SITE and see her web series “Hollywood Taffy” where she excels as a wannabe starlet whose is naive yet sometimes too smart for her own good. Her guest-starring role on “Don’t Trust the Bitch in Apartment 23″ had her channeling a similarly jovial streak. On a darker note, she recently appeared in the horror flick “Rift”, a tale of college students brutally murdered in a small college town. MEGAN’s ability to show her adorable nature as well as a lovable edginess will have her highly prized in no time.

TV Vixen: Kayla Mae Maloney

Beguilingly adorable is the essence of rising starlet KAYLA MAE MALONEY and her personable charm has a worldwide appeal. When there’s a host of lovelies such as Miss KAYLA grabbing our attention, Television has indeed become the gift that keeps on giving. She is currently guest starring as Dr Miranda Buckley on Season 3 of “The Glades” and is turning into the thorn in Callie’s (Kiele Sanchez) side. The beef between the two looks to be heading to an unavoidable conflict and as Miranda, KAYLA shines as the icy doctor. Hers is a truthful performance and we can’t wait to see if all the pent-up resentment of her character boils over in upcoming episodes, which happens to screen tomorrow, the first week of July 2012.

KAYLA’s fetching ebullience is pretty addictive and one only has to view the interview (above) from the Hallmark Channel’s TV Movie “Undercover Bridesmaid” to be enamored…:). Starring alongside Brooke Burke (who is an undercover bodyguard), KAYLA appears as Betsy, a beautiful bridesmaid attending the wedding party of a spoiled rich girl despite inklings of death threats. Apparently KAYLA gets lassoed in one of the scenes from the romantic comedy! All this sounds so fascinating as are her anecdotes on the KAYLA MAE MALONEY TUMBLER SITE. Her post on “Top Ten Reasons To Watch “The Glades” is enjoyably tongue-in-cheek. Everyone will be showing her devotion in no time at all…:)

Indie Princess: Jennifer Prediger

With the L.A. film fest being regarded as feeling the ‘Love’, let’s fan the flames of affection for JENNIFER PREDIGER who is a wonderfully diverse talent. She will be attending the premiere of her movie “Red Flag” this Friday, June 15th which is already stirring up buzz. Just like she did previously in “Richard’s Wedding”, she’s a scene-stealer once more as River, the stalker of leading man Alex Karpovsky. All charm and delivering the goods on the comic front, JENNIFER is conveying her multi-dimensional guile onscreen. Being a writer, video journalist, director and actress, her brand of storytellng is invariably heartwarming.

In every film she’s in, JENNIFER hopes to captivate the audience with a few good, tear-inducing laughs and there lies her knack for entertaining us. Visit the JENNIFER PERDIGER OFFICIAL SITE to see what else is in store from this fetching performer.

Sizzling Cutie: Missy Yager

Why wouldn’t someone as beautiful as MISSY YAGER not be surrounded by handsome men when she has such fetching features. On TV, Missy Yager caught the eye of the very much married Don Draper on the hit series “Mad Men”. Off air, she’s known as the other half of the hunky bartender from “True Blood”, Sam Trammell. Her adorability is a mixture of old-world and modern charms, allowing her to excel as the playful Sarah Beth Carson on “Mad Men” or milking the laughs on her popular web series “Faux Baby”. By the way, she’s a proud mother of twins with Sam Trammell and while she was on hiatus to raise her family, she’s already returned to television with a guest appearance on “Grey’s Anatomy”.

MISSY once remarked she wished dressing went back to the days when men looked like men and women looked like women alluding to the colorful era of the 1960s. While there’s no turning back the clock, seeing women in garter belts and pencil skirts do rank as being a bona fide tease. From her various red-carpet pics where she’s wearing an assortment of stylish dresses, it can be said MISSY does have a pretty glow about her. Some may have heard that she recently worked on the star-studded hit comedy “Friends With Kids” as a producer. Likewise many hope she returns to great form to bewitch us on the big and small screens.

Rising Starlet: Thia Schuessler

This past week has been one of warm approval for the Fresh Faces in the film world and newcomer THIA SCHUESSLER could yet be another gem. As I’m writing this, she’s currently at or around the majestic theaters in Hollywood where AFI Fest 2011 runs till November 10th in support of the enchanting short film “Clear Blue”. It’s “Cocoon” (the youthful rejuvenation swimming pool) meets “Harold and Maude” (the unexpected bond between older woman and younger man) as a lifeguard encounters a magical phenomenon that suspends our disbelief. The woman at the center of this haunting tale is Fiova, an elderly lady who mystically becomes a much younger version of herself as soon as she’s into the blue. THIA plays the younger version of Fiova, ethereally angelic as she spends significant time underwater that includes a kissing scene or two….can’t wait to see how this perplexing mystery unravels. Already she reminds me of mumblecore princess Greta Gerwig in terms of her magnetic beauty, you know that indie cool, arty European glow that keeps us fascinated (ok I’m a little blatantly bias when it comes to cute blondes…hehe).

A visit to the THIA SCHUESSLER OFFICIAL SITE should give an inkling of her fetching qualities. Blessed with ambrosial features (I believe she’s attractive even sans makeup), THIA does have a comely appeal which even in the 20 mins of “Clear Blue” is captured sublimely. In this fast-changing cinematic terrain, it’s a pleasure to be in touch with the stars of tomorrow such as the lovely THIA who could find herself being regarded as one.
