One day she played Zelda for ten hours straight. “I’m such a thinker, I just think about the world’s problems way too much, so video games are my perfect escape.

In 2008 Tinsel Korey hadn’t read any of the Twilight books or know about the movie adaptation. “My little sister, was like ‘I want to see Twilight and I was like ‘what’s Twilight?’” Unbeknownst to Tinsel, Rene Haynes, the casting director, already had her in mind for the role of Emily. “When the audition came around for New Moon I really wanted to get it for my sister, so I could...

I have to say it’s Kristin Stewart as Bella first of all. I didn’t watch Kristen Stewart in interviews or anything like that, I just watched her Bella. When I got to Shreveport, Louisiana where we were filming Vampires Suck, I talked to the directors and we realized that we wanted to treat this as seriously as as if I had booked the role of Bella in Twilight. So my own personal approach... [Read more]
It’s just the most gorgeous undiscovered country. That’s what I love about Slovenia. My dad was born and grew up there, and his family still leaves there.

And then you got Slovenia and it’s just like this cheaper undiscovered beautiful country.... [Read more]

I had the opportunity to wear their gowns for... [Read more]
Both my parents are artists. My mom was a professional dancer and my dad’s a visual artists, so I grew up in this very tight-knit theatrical community. I’ve been an actor since I was six. I’m not very well versed in sports or that because theatre has always been a great path. In high school, my family went through really difficult financial issues and I had to work at the same time as... [Read more]
Vampires Suck is basically a parody of Twilight and New Moon and of the entire vampire pop culture phenomenon going on right now. It follows the arch of my character Becca Crane, who’s this angsty, insecure teenage girl. And it revolves around this dangerous love triangle that she gets herself in with a vampire and a werewolf. And it’s kind of all the ups and downs of what happens when you... [Read more]
