She so often seeks to deliver a unique experience with each performance, from Broadway to television as well as the big screen.

It’s great to know she has a connection to my island home, having appeared in “Robotropolis” which was shot in Singapore. Wish I had managed to catch her in the flesh during some of her scenes. It won’t be long before she becomes the talk of town with her upcoming feature “Crave” along side Ron Perlman and as well as indie feature “Yellow” along side Sienna Miller & Gena Rowlands in the pipeline.

East Meets West in elegant fashion as this true blue Californian Valley Girl of Chinese heritage is known for being wonderful in everything she’s done. On stage, in film and on TV, ELAINE shimmers with dexterity which has seen her switch from character to character with nimble motility. She appeared in “Bridesmaids”, one of the smash comedies of 2011 opposite Kristen Wiig as one half of a couple shopping for jewelry. She’s probably garnered a fair bit of attention after that and judging from positive press from a range of respected media on her amazing theatre work, she’s one to keep tabs on.

Regular guest spots on hit shows such as “NCIS:LA”, “The Closer” and “Entourage” has allowed her the avenue to express herself with such engaging poise.

ELAINE’s soft-spoken charms are leading the way and showering affection towards her arises without fail.

OLIVIA DUDLEY is an up and coming talent with a fascinating essence we’ll be hearing a lot about in the coming months. On top of her appearance in the “Wadzilla” segment of horror anthology Chillerama premiering at FrightFest UK, she’s in the star-studded baseball biopic “Moneyball” about radical GM Billy Beane played by Brad Pitt. OLIVIA is essaying the younger version of Robin Wright’s character, Billy Beane’s ex-wife Sharon in what could be the start of more juicy roles to come. Couch potatoes should remember her on hits show “NCIS” as the pregnant girlfriend whose a suspect in the death of her Marine boyfriend on the episode “Freedom”. There’s already been recognition thanks to that vulnerable performance on “NCIS” and one of the many luminaries on “Moneyball”, Phillip Seymour Hoffman has rubber-stamped her acting finesse. Who’s to say that she won’t burst onto the scene in the same vein as the other Olivia (Wilde) whom we’re so nuts about …:) Miss DUDLEY does have the stunning bone structure complementing her flawless skin tone and drawing us to those intensely enchanting blue eyes.
Blessed with her voluptuous figure, OLIVIA is a young lady who can but doesn’t need to bank on her sex appeal all of the time. Her solid onscreen work coupled with the passion for her artform has seen her on the cusp of a breakout role. A regular on the well-received web series 5secondfilms, we’re treated to a rapid fire of insanely entertaining massively condensed shorts with a new 5-second film unveiled every day…one of the latest has the very saucy Juliette Lewis recreating a “Your Mom” joke (see above). OLIVIA DUDLEY represents the fine tenets of a working actor, toiling to achieve her dream, making her more than accessible to the everyman/woman on the street…we wish her all the success in the world.
Hot TV Vixen Of Summer: Brie Mattson
|
 |
“One Life To Live” and “All My Children” may have been canceled and gone the way of digital but that doesn’t mean we’ll be deprived of our Soap Opera Hotties. Especially since, BRIE MATTSON has been announced as the new love interest of Noah, a central figure in the long-running, still going strong soap “The Young And The Restless”. There’s something about beauties with BRIE in their name that makes you swoon, think Alison Brie, Brie Larson, Brie Gabrielle and of course BRIE MATTSON herself who is an absolute doll. Have you seen her so adorably sexy on “Desperate Housewives” as Kimberly who together with Jacqui Holland are the dates of Max and Charles Carver (playing the Scavo twins). First impressions are indeed everything as Felicity Huffman’s Lynette Scavo assumes that they’re more akin to tramps than sweethearts in the amusing scene (check out the first minutes of her reel above). Being judgmental of someone is human nature but one thing we can agree on is that BRIE is a radiant young lady on and off set. Wondering why I’m announcing BRIE as a Vixen this Summer?? If you’re ever lucky enough to spot BRIE in a bikini complementing that luscious 36-24-37 figure of hers, then you have to believe there’s truly a heaven on earth!! You’ll discover that BRIE has the easy-going appeal that’s thoroughly fascinating…:)
The BRIE MATTSON OFFICIAL SITE lets you in on her acting-related stuff and beyond. Brie is in fact a honey blonde even though she’s predominantly seen on screen or print as a brunette or redhead but she’ll still catch our eyes without fail. In addition to her sensually come-hither glow, she’s more than capable of projecting the poignant moments on film as she aptly did in the Publix Commercial (see above). Guest Spots on “NCIS”, “Eastwick” and “Parenthood” have led to the aforementioned major role on “The Young And The Restless”, a sure sign her star is burning brightly in 2011.

Having informed me that she’s in “Transformers: Dark Of The Moon”, I get a tingle of excitement having Canadian TV/Movie actress KATHLEEN GATI on this blog. In a fun and crazy role as a Russian bar owner/bartender, it’s a given that Transformers fanboys will be looking out for her as they so often do, dissecting every piece of morsel related to the upcoming Summer Popcorn Blockbuster. Well-known in Eastern/Central Europe, audiences have been in awe of her many emotionally-charged onscreen displays for quite some time. She’s currently gracing the 33rd Moscow International Film Festival where her movie “Visszatérés” aka “Retrace” is making its premiere on June 26th. It’s a bittersweet story set in Romania during Ceausescu’s grim regime that has KATHLEEN’s character revisiting her homeland only to discover tragic events. In addition to being a multiple award winning actress, KATHLEEN is multi-lingual and has the magical European allure thanks to her Hungarian roots. Best remembered as the First Lady of Russia Anya Suvarov who has Jack Bauer as an ally on “24″, she’s also been impressing in a slew of hit shows including “The Mentalist”, “NCIS” and “Covert Affairs”. When she first started out in the biz, this was what she noted: “I played a few hookers in my day, because I was always a little ‘voluptuous’” referring to her small part in the cultish “Frankenhooker”. I came across her photo with Tim Roth whom she worked with on an episode of “Lie To Me” and she’s every bit an Über Striking beauty.
KATHLEEN is on the throbbing pulse of entertainment and with those sultry blue eyes of hers, everyone should be in awe of her. Head on over to the KATHLEEN GATI OFFCIAL SITE for a glance at the stellar career and life of this consummate thespian. While she’s often a Bodacious Blonde, KATHLEEN went jet black for the recent indie “The Future” that premiered at the LA Film Fest 2011. Check her out as Dr Straus, the vet dispensing sage advice to Miranda July (playing Sophie) about her adopted cat in the trailer (above). The Sundance fave “Little Birds” sees her part of the fantastic female powerhouse cast of Leslie Mann,Juno Temple and Kay Panabaker. She continues to be influential in a plethora of mediums including Broadway, along the way accumulating a body of work that’s as mesmerizing as she is…:)

Troian Bellisario & Ashley Benson in “Pretty Little Liars”
 |
 |
The fact that so many people are willing to impersonate Troian Bellisario and Ashley Benson on Facebook is a reflection of their explosive popularity. Last night “Pretty Little Liars” had its Season 2 premiere and our addiction to the show keeps getting stronger as the mystery deepens on who holds the key to their darkest secrets. Yup, I know there’s actually 4 gorgeous ladies forming the core of the show yet only Troian and Ashley have an social-networking presence. We would like to think the whodunit panders to teens but more and more audiences are cutting across varying age groups drawn no doubt to the tasty duo and their resplendent onscreen fettle. Let’s indulge in the merry-go-round of suspense and histrionics as long as our weekly fix of these enchanting cuties are satiated…personally i think the antagonist “A” could actually be one of these two!!

KATERINA MIKAILENKO in “The Protector”

Mila Kunis is not the only Russian born actress that’s making waves in the US as youthful starlet Katerina Mikailenko is charting her own path to success. A supporting role in the Christina Aguilera/Cher vehicle “Burlesque” has led to her booking a major part in an upcoming episode of brand new detective drama “The Protector”. We may still be waiting for a teaser/promo to be released but it’s a sure bet Katerina will add mountainous appeal to the eye-candy cast led by leading lady Ally Walker. She’s going to be on the rapid rise especially since she’s nabbed the lead role in the legend Malcolm McDowell’s thriller “Death Method” as well as appearing in “Crazy,Stupid,Love” with Sexiest Man Alive in-waiting Ryan Gosling. Young Hollywood has an exciting future ahead thanks to the emergence of the bewitching Katerina Mikailenko whom viewers are quickly devoting their attention on.

Kim Poirier in “Eureka”

While we have to wait until August to catch Kim Poirier return as Dr Maria Leonardo in “Eureka”, everyone knows she’s one of Canada’s most fetching Sex Symbols. I read that even Kim thought that this particular role was a one-off…I’m guessing due to popular demand, Kim is donning the doctor overcoat once more so her fans around the world can now rejoice!! She may have shed her sizzling sauciness for geeky scientist chic yet her irresistible facets is charmingly intact. Even though she’s famed for partaking in those memorably raunchy scenes in “Dawn Of The Dead” and “Decoys”, her body of work is deeply diverse showcasing the incredible range that she possesses. If you’ve always had a crush on the Miss Kim Poirier, this Summer Season is the time to be in constant affection of this sexy yet adorably down-to-earth Canadian Siren.

Charlene Amoia in “How I Met Your Mother”
 |
 |
Without a doubt, Charlene Amoia is becoming the quintessential darling of TV Land with strong performances in a series of hit shows notably “Glee” and “Shameless”. Already in 2011, she’s been dazzling our screens on episodes of “NCIS:LA” and “Mad Love” in addition to reprising her role as fan favorite Wendy The Waitress from hit “How I Met Your Mother. Lusciously Omnipresent and OmniPotent would best describe the pleasure Charlene has brought into our precious couch potato time. Has anyone mention that Charlene could pass off as the twin sister of one Miss Shannon Elizabeth? Imagine the two of them in a feature together….that would be so enjoyable…:) After all, Charlene is a genuine Goddess and she’s well-loved by being delightfully accommodating to her fans even one like me living miles away. A heavenly sweetheart who deserves all the tributes.

Becki Newton in “Love Bites”
 |
The new series “Love Bites” about the ups and downs of being single might just leave you with a hickey, that is if you were watching with your significant other. After her mega-bitch scene-stealing turn in “Ugly Betty”, Becki Newton was tapped to star as one of only two unattached women in a group of friends. There’s an open concept behind the show with Becki (Annie) and Jordana Spiro (Frannie) central to the vignettes of love mixed in with a revolving door of characters that have issues with romance. Pamela Adlon and Jennifer Love Hewitt are set to have recurring roles that are thoroughly delicious (don’t miss the trailer above). Shifting from her dirty days as Betty-Hating Amanda Tanen to her now pristine innocence as virginal Annie, she’s got us enamored all over again. Who is a virgin these days anyways…and on the strength of that premise alone, viewers are expected to follow “Love Bites” for the inevitable “Breaking Her Cherry” conclusion to Becki’s chaste character!
