More golden girls... |

| Charisma Carpenter
Background - Charisma (the name's origin courtesy of an Avon perfume) was born in Las Vegas. She attended three high schools as her family moved around a lot, yet remained as a cheerleader and 'social butterfly' throughout. After graduating, with the goal to become a classical dancer, she worked her way through college in San Diego - working as a waitress, professional cheerleader, a video store clerk, and an aerobics instructor (lycra, yummy!). Eventually, though, she moved to Los Angeles and was introduced to an agent. After taking acting classes, she has blossomed into the Charisma we know now... Credits - She appeared in numerous commercials at first yet got a chance to show off her talent on both Baywatch (swimsuits, yummy!!) and Malibu Shores. When she auditioned for a role in a little show called Buffy, she did with the hope of becoming the lead character. When Sarah landed that role, Carpenter was offered the role of Cordy and gladly took it. Now, of course, she's on Angel. Look out for; Watch out for sporty Charisma flying through the air whilst sky-diving. She is a fan of extreme sports and was told by producers only to participate in such sports during hiatus in case she got injured. Eeek! Another big 'eeeeek!' comes from the fact that Carpenter has hinted she may no longer be a regular on the spinoff series, as she wants to be a mother... |

 Oooh, I say. More than just Angel's girl Friday... |

| Eliza Dushku
Background - Raised Mormon, Eliza Patricia Dushku is sister to three or four brothers and was tomboyish as a result - instead of being on the cheerleading team, she would join her bros in football games. She is best pals with Clare Kramer and the two are shacked up in an apartment of their own (would fixing cameras in there REALLY be spying?). She studied dance, loves yoga, and she can sing. Credits - You may recognised Eliza as Arnie's daughter in True Lies. After filming a few movies as a young 'un, Eliza returned to high school for her junior and senior years. It was at the age of seventeen/eighteen that she took on the role of Faith and since then she's been tipped as one of the brightest young stars in Hollywood. She's worked alongside Kirsten Dunst in Bring It On, done the whole slash'n'stalk thing in Soul Survivors, and donned a skin-tight catsuit (NO DROOL!) in Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back! While she is open when it comes to returning to the shows (rumour has it she could appear next season), it all depends on her movie-star status and schedule - and she's a busy beaver. She's shooting many a movie, one featuring Robert DeNiro... Look out for; Said Robert DeNiro movie (not too sure of the title but it may be City By The Sea). And there's a whole host of other upcoming movies you can see this girl starring in very soon. I'll keep ya posted... |

 Movie star or what? Everyone's gonna know her name soon enough! |

| Julie Benz
Background - Julie started ice skating at the tender age of three and was soon ranked the number twelve ice skater in the US. After injuring herself, Julie turned to acting. In Los Angeles, she auditioned for the role of Kendall Hart in All My Children but lost out to one Sarah Michelle Gellar. After this let-down, she auditioned for the role of Buffy Summers in some silly show called Buffy The Vampire Slayer - and, again, lost out to Sarah Michelle Gellar. However, we all know the rest. Meanwhile, it is rumoured that she refused a role in Kubrick's swan song Eyes Wide Shut for the sole reason that she would be topless - this gal has standards! Good for her, bad for us... :) Credits - One of her most prolific roles was a short but memorable appearance opposite Jack Nicholson in As Good As It Gets. She was a recurring guest star on cancelled teen show Roswell, and has popped up in numerous tongue-in-cheek teen flicks such as Jawbreaker, Satan's School For Girls, and Shriek If You Know What I Did Last Friday The 13th. Look out for; Julie has a meaty role in a forthcoming mini-series extravaganza produced by Stephen Spielberg, entitled Taken. |
