ENJOY!

 

Full Name: Lauren Felice Collins                                        


Nickname: Laur, Collins


Zodiac Sign: Virgo


Height: 5' 2"


Eyes: Greenish grey


Hair: Natural brunette but I went blonde for In A Heartbeat in 2000 and have stayed one ever since!


First Acting Job: A Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup Commercial


Favorite Acting Job: Definitely Degrassi. It's just so fun to be part of a cast that is almost entirely my age. Also, Paige is an amazing character. She has many sides to her and it's been very cool discovering all these dimensions.


Dating Status: Single....but certainly looking for a boyfriend!


Personal Style: Clothes and style are very important to me so I like to stay as up to date with the current trends as I can. Right now, my favourite pants are my Joie cargo capris, my favourite shirt is by a Toronto designer called Preloved who takes old vintage clothes and designs them into new things. And for shoes, it's a toss up between my Converse Chucks and my Old Navy Flip Flops! Signature Scent: For daytime, Clinique Happy and for night I really like Victoria's Secret Amber Romance Body Splash


Fave Band: I love ALL kinds of music! Everything from Bob Dylan and the Grateful Dead to Justin and Britney.


In Your CD Player: Jack Johnson 'Inaudible Melodies' and Christina Aguilera 'Stripped', getting ready for there upcoming concerts.


Best Quality: My friends would probably say my positive outlook on life. I'm always the one who tries to make every situation a good one.


Worst Habit: I'm a really big worrier!


Fave Movie: Too many to name but a few would be Chicago, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Annie Hall, Dazed and Confused and at the moment Old School. Quite a variety!


Fave TV Show: I have and always will be the biggest fan of Friends, but now I'm a reality tv junkie, my favourites are American Idol and The Amazing Race. And of course, Trading Spaces!


Fave Actor: Brad Pitt, Will Ferrel, Ben Stiller, John Cusack


Fave Actress: I really look up to Jennifer Aniston. Also Cameron Diaz and Gwenyth Paltrow. These actresses have all taken on career challenges and are huge stars but seem so down to earth at the same time and that's the main reason why I admire them. And I have to mention the Olsen Twins because I really admire them for their business savvy side.


Your type of guy: He has to be funny and just like having fun! I love laughing and if a guy can make me do that he's in! Also someone who cares about me and my career, he has to understand that I have a busy schedule and can't always make as much time for him as he'd like. And an honest person doesn't hurt either.


Hobbies: Between school and acting it is hard to have time for hobbies but I love watching as many movies as I can in my spare time and again, shopping is always fun.


Favorite Junk food: Anything chocolate.


Favorite Way To Spend A Saturday: Sleeping in, going out for lunch and shopping with my girls and discussing what we can do that night!


Perfect First Date: Nothing too fancy. Grabbing some food and a movie and then just chilling. If you can sit around with a guy, doing nothing at all, and still have fun, then he is a good match for you.


My Hero/Inspirations: My parents. They are the two most courageous people I know.


Celebrity Crush: Ashton Kutcher, Justin Timberlake and Prince William


Dream Car: Audi TT in silver


Dream Vacation: I have two dream vacations and they are SO different. The first would be to backpack through Europe with one of my best friends and really rough it out. The other would be to stay in a beautiful resort on the beach in Bali or Fiji.
